O curso baixo consiste na estrutura bem preservada duma torre apalaçada do século XIII com dupla aresta, construída pelos Frasers of Muchalls. Sobre esta estrutura, o castelo seiscentista foi começado por Alexander Burnett of Leys e concluido pelo seu filho, Sir Thomas Burnett, 1º Baronete, em 1627. Os Burnetts of Leys construiram o restante castelo actual de quatro pisos. Um dos mais interessantes castelos do nordeste da Escócia, de acordo com o conhecido historiador de arquitectura Nigel Tranter, é desenhado no clássico estilo em L, com uma outra ala de extensão no extremo oeste. O Muchalls Castle entrou na história nacional em 1638, quando aqui teve lugar uma reunião embrionária do movimento Covenanter precedente à Guerra Civil Inglesa.
