Snowdrops – quiet signs that winter is slowly loosening its grip

The snowdrops around Barcaldine Castle are looking beautiful just now – quiet signs that winter is slowly loosening its grip and spring is on the way.

Snowdrops are one of our most loved wild flowers, appearing between January and March and pushing through the cold earth with a sense of hope and new beginnings. They feel especially fitting at this time of year, as the castle rests and prepares for the season ahead.

We reopen in 8 weeks’ time, and behind the scenes the team is busy with maintenance and preparation, getting everything ready to welcome guests back for another year.

We still have availability in the Lochnell, Airds and Argyll bedrooms for Easter weekend, and all Easter guests will receive a complimentary Oban Chocolate Shop Easter egg as a little seasonal treat.

We’re very much looking forward to welcoming everyone back soon.

Set in a picturesque location, Barcaldine Castle is on the banks of Loch Creran. There’s so much to do!
