Several days later in-between his day job Rob has finally finished the last roof on the courtyard area. #culdeesrenovation
I went out to feed the chickens early this morning. The air was fresh, birds we’re singing, the snow reflected the light on the highlands and everything was calm and peaceful. So thankful that Rob maintains the woodlands regularly so the huge storm left little destruction in its path here. Thankful that our glamping guests embraced the power cut and storm with an added sense of adventure. Two days of cutting and sweeping and we are all tidy again. 💪💨 #stormarwen #culdeestestimonial #culdeesglamping
So thrilled to be featured in this months #tietheknotscotland magazine as one of their favourite new wedding venues. #culdeesweddingsandevents
It’s been an odd year and for most Rob and I feel like we already know the guests before they arrive as it’s been so long since they first booked and planned their holidays. Some guests have been cancelled and rebooked up to four times so it’s an absolute pleasure when we finally get to meet. Thanks for sticking with us everyone your support to our business is really appreciated. #culdeesrecomendations
Can’t tell you how much fun we’ve had tonight! Christmas wreath making class with #victoriabloomcrieff greenery, mulled wine, Christmas tunes and glitter. Lots of glitter! #culdeesmansionhouseandcastle #culdeesweddingsandevents
Roofing tiles have arrived at last to finish off the stable roof.
Poor Rob it’s getting cold out today #culdeesrenovation
Today we put up the tree in readiness for our first Christmas Wreath Making class in the Castle courtyard. It’s made us feel all very excited for the busy months ahead. #culdeesmansionhouseandcastle #culdeesweddingsandevents

Last night we also unveiled the start of our gratitude wall. Each person that has significantly contributed to our journey will be given a stone tribute on the wall in the castle courtyard. The wall is constructed from original handmade giant bricks found in the castle. The wall will form part of our whisky nook so it can be enjoyed whilst sitting comfortably with a tipple.
So last night we threw a party at the Castle to thank all of our tradesmen and their families for helping us on our journey so far. It was a fantastic night to showcase the restoration and venue they have all been part of. For the most this was the first time they could see and appreciate all of their work and see the Castle in all her glory. Rob and I work hard and often long hours but each and everyone at the party has helped in making our dreams a reality. Thank you 🙏🏻 #culdeesweddingsandevents
Do you remember these two lovebirds who got engaged in front of the castle in September? We’ve had a fab day meeting suppliers and making Culdees wax seals for their wedding day! So excited for next year 🥰 Team : Jo & Alan @mobile_measures @viviennehumanist @gourlayevents #dreamteam
They shall not grow old
As we are left to grow old
Age shall not weary them
Nor the years condemn them
At the going down of the sun
and in the morning we will
remember them #poppyappeal #lestweforget🌹 #britishlegionpoppy
Little bit of therapeutic painting today, whilst up cycling these old bar chairs. The chairs will be given a new lease of life in our Courtyard tea room next summer. #culdeesrenovation #upcycledfurniture
Our peacocks are waiting for the bar to open 🥰#culdeesglamping
