Welcome to Braemar

Braemar Castle open Easter to end of October

Braemar Castle opens for 2017 season on 1st April 

Braemar is situated in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park and close to Balmoral castle in Royal Deeside. Our lovely village is surrounded by stunning mountain scenery, beautiful glens containing ancient pine forests which contain abundant wildlife. The village has a good range of accommodation options, independent and boutique shops plus some fine places to eat out.

Do you have your tickets...? 🙂 ...

Just over three weeks to go before we welcome one of Americana's finest contemporary singers to St Margaret's in Braemar. The live concert on Friday 26th May is a collaboration between three highly acclaimed artists - Fiona Kennedy, Paul Anderson and their American guest Mary Gauthier.

Expect a transatlantic journey through a range of sounds and styles. From Aberdeen, Fiona Kennedy's lyrical and delicate melodies are crafted along with Paul Anderson's haunting fiddle. Fuse this with the smouldering drawl and deeply personal lyrics of Mary Gauthier and you can expect to be to be transported across the ocean and back.

Tickets available now online at Ticketsource www.ticketsource.co.uk/
