Fabulous for a morning or afternoon out and not far from Crathes Castle. A great little outdoor play area available for the kids with zip wire and adventure play.

As with Crathes it is a functional castle but access is free for certain parts. Also has very lovely gardens.

See 700 years of history at Drum Castle in its battlements, medieval square tower and sprawling extensions. The Royal Forest and Tower of Drum were given to the Irvine family by Robert the Bruce in 1323. Later a Jacobean mansion house was added, and in the Victorian era the lower hall was converted to a library, now containing a mighty 4,000 books. The beautiful Garden of Historic Roses is divided into quadrants that show how roses have been cultivated from the 17th to the 20th century. The Drumhill Trail and Farmland Walk take you through a patchwork of fields and woodland. The ancient oak forest adjoins the castle, providing a sense of continuity through the centuries and a home for red kites, roe deer, red squirrels and badgers.
