Scottish castle purchased by Queen Victoria's consort Prince Albert in 1852 (8)

I believe the answer is:

balmoral

(Other definitions for balmoral that I've seen before include "Royal place" , "Scottish holiday residence of British royals" , "somewhere in Scotland" , "Royal retreat in Scotland" , "Queen's address?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
