The gardens are beautiful and well maintained, while there is little left of the original castle. The yew trees in the gardens are at least 500 years old! The gardens can be visited, but it's also worth checking out their special events (markets, apple day, outdoor plays, etc). Check out their website https://www.elloncastlegardens.net/visit-us/

Excellent hotel and restaurant with very friendly owners – also very accommodating to cyclists ;)

Very good coffee and a fantastic selection of cakes! trelliscoffeeshop.com

The visitor centre is open daily 10am - 4pm. The impressive dune system is always open. 😉

A beautiful little sandy bay. The coastal path goes above it or you can descend into the bay.

Here you can find the ruins of the old church of Forvie. The village was buried by a shifting dune in the 16th century.

Here, the Formartine and Buchan Trail cuts through the peaceful Logierieve Wood. The path is accompanied by a display of willows, offering a canopy of shade through this section.

Forvie National Nature Reserve is a treasure located north of Newburgh in Aberdeenshire, in the northeast of Scotland. Owned and managed by NatureScot, the reserve is one of Scotland’s most dramatic stretches of coast3. It covers almost 1,000 hectares of sand dunes and dune heath between the North Sea and the estuary of the River Ythan1. The Sands of Forvie, which are the fifth largest sand dune system in Britain, dominate the southern end of the reserve. These sands are the least disturbed by human activity in the country.
