Birkhall

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Birkhall is a 53,000 acre estate in Royal Deeside, Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is alongside the River Muick to the southwest of Ballater. The property was acquired from the Gordon family (owners of the Abergeldie estate) by Prince Albert, consort to Queen Victoria. It became the Deeside home of Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother and later of the Prince of Wales, who uses the estate as a private retreat and spent his second honeymoon here in 2005. A fine wire suspension bridge erected in 1880 crosses the River Muick here.
