"I thought I was famous until I walked down a Scottish street with Billy Connolly"

Steve Martin turns 78 today.

Speaking to The Herald in March 2020 ahead of his performance at Glasgow's OVO Hydro alongside long-time collaborator Martin Short, the legendary comedian said: "I first came to Edinburgh when I was 21. There was a big rugby match on and I remember thinking – boy, these people can sure party!

"I came back four years later to appear at the Fringe. I can remember playing my banjo in the coffee shops. Happy times. I have Scottish blood, Irish blood, English blood – which is pretty good for a person who has no blood.

"I have played banjo with Billy Connolly and it was wonderful. Listen, I thought I was famous until I walked down a Scottish street with Billy Connolly. It took on a holy aspect.

"It was like going for a stroll with an apostle."

Last Saturday we had a wonderful evening celebrating the Bard’s birthday.
There was whisky, poetry, bagpipes, delicious food and great music.

Burns suppers don’t happen just once a year at Candacraig and we are lucky to be surrounded by such talented performers who help us entertain our guests and champion Scottish traditions.

We are hosting a Burns Weekend from 27 to 29 January 2023. This is a unique opportunity to experience Candacraig for a weekend in a double room, join in with all the activities planned and celebrate the National Bard in proper style!

The weekend will start with a cocktail making masterclass on Friday 27 January, followed by an informal supper and a whisky tasting with Gordon Muir, to make new acquaintances or refresh old ones! On Saturday morning, after a proper Scottish breakfast, we will take you on a gentle hike along the famous River Don to the Steading Bar in Strathdon. After lunch, we have planned a Land Rover Safari on Candacraig Estate, or you can relax at the house if you prefer!

The black-tie evening will feature a traditional Burns supper prepared by Chef Mark Heirs, drams from Tomintoul Single Malt Whisky distillery to toast the haggis, and a ceilidh with local folk music superstars, Pete MacCallum and Jonny Hardie.

We have a few spaces still available. Write to [email protected] for prices and any further details.

We often talk about wine service but water is just as important. The guests glass should never run dry.
