Brodie castle was a great experience there was only one major downside that I will mention later.
Brodie castles grounds were very well kept and very tidy.
I had a great and peaceful walk through the forest on site there were forests around the castle that I was not sure if I could enter but would have loved to.
The food tasted great and was a fair price.
There is a kids play area it is great and has a lot to do, with climbing areas and music areas and even a fresh apple tree you can take off if you are lucky.
The castle itself was great with a lot of history and a lot of the furniture is the original furniture from when the castle was first built. that's very rare for castles to have this.
Now for the downside, because the castle had original furniture photos were prohibited as the national trust of Scotland owned the castle but not the furniture and they wish to avoid the family taking the furniture.
it's very unfortunate that photography is prohibited but I understand why they restricted photography.
I took loads of videos but not many pictures very sorry about that for anyone reading...
Read moreAberdeenshire has loads of pink/stone castles and this did not disappoint. Becautiul on the outside and inside (sadly photos are not allowed of the inside!). Brodie holds the biggest library of all castles in Scotland and I would stay there for hours if I could! Entrance to the castle is by guided tours only- so check the time before going. Brodie castle is a part of National Trust for Scotland and if you’re visiting more then 3 of the castles, it’s worth paying for the membership! The estate is also big so plenty of places for walks and many animals to see. Dogs are allowed on the state but not inside the castle.

Read moreA great day out was had by all. The Playful Garden is great for kids and adults alike. The Castle tour was quite short but absolutely fascinating. Would have loved to have spent a day or two sitting in the Library room going through those books. The guides were very informative and helpful. The gardens are a horticultural delight, with all kinds of everything blooming and growing everywhere you looked. Thanks to the lady in the shop for telling us about the wild flower garden, it was beautiful. Well worth a visit, and make sure you catch the Pictish Stone near the entrance, fascinating and beautiful. A lovely day at a very special...
