🧶 Volunteers’ Week Spotlight 🧶

Did you know we have a volunteer who comes to Castle Menzies each week to demonstrate yarn spinning? A huge shout out to Maureen.

Visitors love watching the process and learning how wool is transformed into yarn using traditional techniques. It’s a wonderful way to connect with the skills that were once part of everyday life.

A huge thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping us bring history to life for our visitors. ❤️🏰

Good afternoon from Castle Menzies 🌿

A beautiful glimpse of the walled garden in April, with the hyacinths in full bloom and the first real signs of spring colour appearing throughout the garden.

Our thanks to Scott, the castle manager, for capturing this lovely footage for us.

If you’re visiting Highland Perthshire, why not come and see the gardens and castle for yourself? We’re open today until 4.30pm.

Castle Menzies Walled Garden Series - Part 6 🌿

Taken in April 2026, this photograph captures the first vibrant display of hyacinths emerging within the walled garden.

Planted in red and white, the flowers were chosen to reflect the colours long associated with Clan Menzies.

After the quieter winter months, this was one of the first real signs of colour, growth, and the vision beginning to come to life.

We think you’ll all agree these flowers are absolutely stunning!

Castle Menzies Walled Garden Series - Part 5 🌿

This photograph, taken in January 2026, shows one of the newly planted pear trees protected with a rodent collar to help prevent damage during the winter months.

While much of the garden rested during the colder season, careful work continued behind the scenes to protect and establish the young trees for the years ahead.

Each small detail played an important part in creating a healthy and lasting garden for future generations to enjoy.
