Going early as we did Las Thursday we almost had the grounds of Balmoral Castle to ourselves, it was a wonderful experience.
We went to visit the Pyramid. It's a lovely walk however not if you are not great at walking, it's quite a trek from the car park to the pyramid.. Once your on the trail it's uphill. We loved it and the views from the top. It's peaceful and well worth visiting. It's free no tickets to buy.
Beautiful place. Great walk and excellent cafe and exclusive souvenirs to collect
I wasn’t sure what to expect really. I knew about Balmoral of course but had only seen pictures from aerial shots. I was happy I went!
We had a lively afternoon wondering the grounds of Balmoral. We pre-booked pur tickets and the audio was complementary, rather than the usual £5. Very interesting to hear about all the various aspects. It was a lovely afternoon, except for the rain!
A wonderful day. So much to see and experience. So much history to take in. The audio guide was excellent. The gardens and grounds are beautifully kept. Sitting by the River Dee was relaxing. Only downside was the long, slow queue to get a coffee.
So pleased to be able to visit here 2 weeks ago! Lovely grounds and a fabulous display of photos in the ballroom. Kitchen gardens were slightly disappointing as not all the ground was planted up which surprised me. A great cafe too!
An experience I would never have missed - gorgeous castle grounds and stunning scenery all around. The gift shop was very pricey, as you can imagine but the biggest disappointment was that we were only allowed into the ballroom where a photographic display of the Queen and her family awaited us (not one photo showing Diana - even though she spent her honeymoon there)
