📍 Milton of Crathes, Banchory, Aberdeenshire
In less than 4 weeks, we’ll be back at the @miltonofcrathes for our FESTIVE FAYRE!
This time, we’ll be cosy and snug in the old sawmill, nestled at the bottom corner of the complex, overlooking Coy Burn.
Our festive market will be open all weekend from 10am to 4pm, but there are lots of other things to do in the area while you’re there. If you have the time, why not make a day of it and visit some of the other small businesses in the area:
@hiddenscotlandshop
@themiltonartgallery
@miltonbrasserie
@livi.loves_dress.agency
@twinpeakesflyfishing
whiteskyphotographics
@culterperennials
Santa trains will also be available at the old Milton railway station, just a minute’s walk from our market.
We can’t wait to see you there!

Glentanar Brasserie & Bar launch night! Last night we attended the re-launch of the Glentanar Brasserie & Bar at Holiday Inn Aberdeen - West and all we can say is… WOW!!The dishes we had were incredible and the cocktails were a must try too! The interior is stunning - dark moody colours, warm lighting and leather. The space feels very special and definitely more “grown up” than their family restaurant @luigisaberdeen also situated within the hotel. All in all a fantastic addition to Westhill & the hotel itself.The Glentanar Brasserie and Bar are officially open to the public from the 7th of June. Call the hotel on 01224 270300 to book a table 😊#launchnight #restaurantlaunch #glentanar #brasserie #glentanarbrasserie #westhill #aberdeenshire #scottishcuisine #holidayinnaberdeenwest #foodreels #foodphotography #foodstagram #foodporn #newmenu #steakfrites #fishandchips #cocktails #pannacotta #stickytoffeepudding #aberdeen

✨SUNDAY’S ARE FOR SELF CARE!✨
Exactly a week has passed since the lovely Lisa of @thisistheselfcareclub took this video of her gorgeous bell tent at our #aconsciousmarket.
I thought it was pretty apt for today since her specialty is self care and if we can’t make the time to look after ourselves through the week, we should, at the very least, aim to do it on a Sunday!
My Sunday is definitely looking a lot less hectic than last week with a dog walk and a trip to the cinema being the most I’ll be doing today!
It’s so important to have these days just to switch off, slow down and enjoy the present before the busy working week starts all over again!
Enjoy your Sunday guys! Let us know how you are spending yours!🌿✨
✨THIS TIME LAST WEEK...✨
...we were prepping for our second Conscious Market! 🙌🏼
Here I was, in this beautiful field trying to bring to light the plans that were in my head 😅😂 Fortunately, I think we pulled it off and I think it’s safe to say the day was AMAZING!
While I have been busy planning the next Conscious Market this week (more news on that soon!) I’ve also been enjoying the slower pace again. I’m such an introvert that I have retreat back into my shell once in a while to recharge... any other introverts feeling me?! 😆
Super excited to be planning the next one and I cannot wait to show you what I have in store for you guys! You are going to LOVE it! 🌿✨
Aaaand relax.... almost! 😆🥰
