The scenery around Balmoral is breathtaking and we enjoyed our visit to the grounds. It's a nice combination of rugged beauty and formal elegence. There is even a group of Highland Cow that you can get up close too.
We took one of the shorter walks round the grounds which took us past the working gardens and over by the river. The weather was unsettled so it made for some contrating pictures. Some turned out as if the day was glorious and others looked as if a great storm was on the way !
There is only one room open to the public, the ballroom, and while it is quite small in comparison to similar spaces in other buildings we have seen it has been given over to a very interesting display and documentary about the royal family.
