Message from Ian G Black

Balmoral Castle, located in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, is a grand estate house and a favorite retreat of the British royal family. Originally purchased by Prince Albert and Queen Victoria in 1852, the castle was later rebuilt to accommodate their growing family and guests. With its Scottish baronial architecture and stunning surroundings, Balmoral remains a private residence of the monarch, boasting extensive grounds that include forests, moors, and various wildlife. It's not just a castle; it's a cozy royal getaway nestled in the picturesque Scottish countryside.
