We’ve been up in the air again today. Inspecting and planning our next moves to reinstate the internal floors and ceilings of the east wing. I did a spot of gardening whilst I was up there 😆 #culdeesrenovation ...

Glamping cleaning and welcoming party helpers for today. #culdeesglamping ...

The main corridor is empty and we are cracking on with the rest of the “The room of doom”
(servants hall) still loads to go but it’s an addictive job and encouraging to see through to the clean and calm courtyard we’ve completed whilst we work. #culdeesrenovation ...

Brick, bricks and more bricks 🧱 we’ve stacked a few these past few months #culdeesrenovation ...

I am so pleased to tell you that after weeks of hard graft we can now walk all the way from the back door of the castle to the central spine staircase! Rob and James have shifted so much rubble and damaged wood making huge impact on the floor space and a few more visitors can now visualise where the rebuild starts. Now the architect and structural engineer are happy it’s all drawn ahead for the last push of rubble removal and can then reinstate the walls! So proud of my family 💞 #culdeesrenovation ...

Our Mia turned 15 this weekend so we threw a Cocktails & Mocktail party for her in the courtyard. The girls all had great fun shaking up some concoction’s whilst our family and friends supervised. My favourite local balloon supplier @paperclipzauchterarder did an amazing job on the balloons and Robs sister in law made an equally amazing themed cake to go with it all. A great night was had by all. #culdeesweddingsandevents ...

Today our girls and a few of their pals took part in a fabulous photo shoot to model these ultra cute dresses and waistcoats handmade by local designer @corastitch such a glorious day for a whimsical shoot with fun, laughter, bubbles and cake in the gardens. @culdeescastleestate #culdeesweddingsandevents ...

We are pleased to announce the engagement of Lee & Louise 💍 We we’re thrilled to help Lee plan his proposal. With a little help from our friends at @thecreifffoodcompany we laid on the most magnificent spread, bubbles and atmosphere for a truly romantic scene. Congratulations again 👏🏻 #culdeesweddingsandevents #culdeesglamping ...

One more day of hard graft and we have found the spinal floor again! Thanks to our lovely family and friends who have helped so much this week. Once uncovered we can start to rebuild the wall and restore the main spinal hallway that runs through the ground floor of the castle. This is a huge deal as once up the steels and timbers go back in to reinstate the floors and walls and we have rooms again. Obviously this will take a while but hey it’s a milestone none the less. #progressnotperfection #culdeesrenovation ...

We’ve brought new luggage trolleys for our Glampers. Not sure which is my favourite colour as love them all 🥾 #culdeesglamping #luxurylifestyle #luxlife ...

Today was epic! I went up the cherry picker for several hours… and cleaned off all the Ivy and moss from the front facade above the door. I then enlisted Steve to pop up with me to the stone shield and add what looks like for the very first time ever! Our Culdees Crest. It feels very special to put us up there and time stamp our little bit of new history in the castles life. Years ago all big houses would of had their family crest emblazoned on the front of the house and added to their stationary and documents. An old fashioned “Brand logo” if you like. So here we are 221 years on and adding our brand logo to this beautiful building. It’s been a very special day indeed #culdeesmansionhouseandcastle #culdeesrenovation #culdeescastle #logo #brandingidentity ...
