Duff House   Duff House, on the outskirts of Banff, has been many things during its long and turbullentr life; a stately home, an internment camp, a barracks, a hotel, a sanitorium, and an art gallery. It has been argued over, built and rebuilt, and bombed. It was the subject of a long and bitter lawsuit that left one party to the suit broken in health and spirit, and one Countess of Fife even attempted to murder her husband here.
