I've been meaning to write this post up for weeks now! We had the loveliest winter's walk at Scotney Castle with Harriet and her family back in January. The girls running along hand in hand and Parker exploring to his hearts content.
Scotney features a 14th century moated castle, country house and a romantic garden all inside a beautiful wooded estate. With over 770 acres of woodland and parkland to explore there's plenty to keep the whole family busy!
It was rather wet and frosty on the morning of our visit, but we didn't let that stop us. We headed for the castle first - I say we, but the girls actually decided on our route as they ran straight off down the hill together first!
Although partly ruins now, the old castle is still such a beautiful spot to explore. Of course it's lovelier to visit in the warmer months, with the gardens in bloom and brighter skies. But there was something about it in the frost.
It was a little bit magical!
We stopped to watch as the ducks found their way across the ice, before diving into the icy water. Hunted for the children's adventure play which was unfortunately closed (it looks fab though and should hopefully be open soon!). And then made our way back up to the top of the hill to the house.
Beautiful pictures - looks like you had a lovely day out.
