Hafton House (also known as Hafton Castle) is a Category B listed[1] country house in Hunters Quay, Argyll and Bute, Scotland. The property is located on the southern shores of the Holy Loch. It dates to the late 18th century, built to a design by David Hamilton,[2] and it received its historic designation in 1971.[1] It is two storeys, with a higher tower.[1]

One of its first owners was James Hunter (1814–1854).[3][4][1] As of 1841, Hunter was living at Hafton "age 25 (sic), of independent means, with his wife [Eliza] and children, Eliza age 4, James age 3 and William age 4 months, as well as other Hunter relatives and 7 female servants".[3] At least one other child — a daughter, Rosina Jane[5] — was born later. James Hunter Sr. was still resident there in 1851, age 37.[3] James Hunter Jr. purchased nearby Dunloskin Farm in the 1870s.[6][7]

In the 1870s, the property was 5,740 acres.[8]

The grounds also contain a gatehouse and a bridge.[9]
