STV in partnership with National Trust for Scotland
Closed on Monday, 4th July at 00:00
STV and the National Trust for Scotland in partnership are bringing you the opportunity to win a two-night self-catering break for up to four guests at the stunning East Lodge, in the grounds of Crathes Castle near Banchory in Aberdeenshire. Standing against a backdrop of rolling hills and set within its own glorious gardens, Crathes Castle is every inch the classic Scottish tower house – and offers a fantastic experience for all the family.
Your stay will encompass free entry to the Castle & Garden over the 2-day period, alongside a VIP tour followed by afternoon tea for four. Upon check in, a welcome hamper of delicious goodies will also be waiting. Inside the Castle you’ll find a labyrinth of cultural history, from family portraits to fine antique furniture. The walled garden is a wonderful jungle of history, split into eight sections that encompass every green delight imaginable. Look out for wildlife along the way – you may see red squirrels, woodpeckers and herons.
