Early autumn at Crathes Castle and Gran is here!

Ben’s mother is visiting us and we spent a lovely morning wandering about the grounds of Crathes Castle. The weather was very changeable with wet and windy one moment followed by warm and sunny the next. The gardens are still in full bloom and looked beautiful but there are clear signs that autumn is upon us.

    That is clever autumnal gardening, so beautiful. Ben’s mum looks like she’s having a nice time.

      The garden at Crathes Castle is definitely one of the best!
