This tour takes you around three very different castles in the heart of our beautiful countryside. The stunning Balmoral Castle, built by Prince Albert for Queen Victoria who loved the rugged scenery and the simple way of life in the Highlands, as do our current Royal Family feel the same and do visit on a regular basis. King Charles in particular loves the area. Ballindalloch Castle, owned by the Macpherson-Grants and one of the few private castles in Scotland lived in continuously by the family who founded it. Set in the beautiful Speyside region, this castle lets you see the rooms the family currently use on a daily basis. Brodie Castle, currently owned by the National Trust as the last resident member of the Brodie family died in 2003. The castle dates from the 16th century and as well as a wonderful library, in the grounds it has a national daffodil collection which is stunning to see.
- Pick up from accommodation - Head to Balmoral Castle for a tour around the grounds and see where the Royal Family stay when in Scotland (the castle is open for limited days for tours, please let me know if you would like to do a tour) - Lunch at either the five star Balmoral Arms or at one of the hotels in Speyside - Ballindalloch Castle for a tour and walk around the grounds - Brodie Castle for a tour and walk around the grounds - Drop off at your chosen destination * Another option could be to substitute Brodie castle for a visit to a Speyside distillery and the Walkers shortbread factory
