Beautiful Brylach and part two of the woodland walk 🥾
Leaving the shelter if the woodland behind, this section of the walk opens out onto beautiful Heather-covered hillside with wonderful views across the Glen.
One of our favourite things about this route is that it’s accessible directly from Brylach Steading. No car required, just pull on your walking boots and head out to explore.
We’ve spent many hours walking this route ourselves, gradually creating a natural path and adding way-markers to make it easier for guests to enjoy.
If you’re lucky, you may spot a Roe deer, red squirrels, birds of prey, or even the local Osprey. Of course, nature works to its own timetable and that’s all part of the magic and wonder.
In Part 3, we’ll discover some of the fascinating remnants of the area’s peat-cutting heritage, once an important part of Speyside’s Whisky story.
Will you come and explore a place completely off the beaten track? 🍃

The Best of Brylach is seeing our guests so happy here! ✨
It really is the best feeling being a part of making someone’s stay in this beautiful part of the world so special.
We love making genuine, authentic and personalised recommendations and then hearing about the guests experience when they come back at the end of the day.
The impromptu chats, meeting such lovely people from all over the world and all different backgrounds is so interesting and fulfilling.
Edna loves all of the strokes as well! 🐾

World best friend day seemed like the perfect excuse to share one of our favourite walks at Brylach 🍃
Tucked away behind the steading, our woodland walk offers a chance to slow down, reconnect with nature and perhaps spot some local wildlife along the way.
Who would you bring for a walk like this?

Let’s go Beyond Brylach….along part of the beautiful Moray Coastal trail 🌊 ☀️
This time we explored the coastline around Primrose Bay, Hopeman and Burghead - with bright blue skies, stunning sea views and some proper fresh Moray air.
From quiet beach walks and dramatic coastal paths to colourful harbour scenes and golden sand, this stretch of coastline is one of our favourite easy short day trips from Brylach Steading 🩵
Edna came along for the adventure too of course! 🐾
And if you listen carefully you might also hear (and spot 👀) a few typhoon jets training overhead from nearby Lossiemouth ✈️ - something that always makes a walk along this coast feel even more memorable.
One of the many reasons we love it here is just how much variety there is nearby - woodland, whisky trails, castles, mountains and coastline all within east reach.

Let’s go Beyond Brylach…to the Gordon Castle Highland Games 🏰 ✨
Our first Highland Games of the season - and despite the rain it was such a brilliant day ☔️
From pipe bands and Highland dancing to heavy events, food stalls and plenty happening throughout the grounds, theres something very special about the atmosphere at a traditional Scottish Highland Games.
One of the best things about staying at Brylach Steading is how many fantastic days out are right on the doorstep - Gordon Castle is only a short drive away.
And with plenty more Highland Games happening across Moray Speyside and the Highlands throughout the summer, this is just the beginning.
Rain or shine….. definitely work experiencing at least once.

Let’s go Beyond Brylach… to Balmoral Castle 🏰 ✨Just over an hour from Brylach Steading, this makes the perfect day trip ...

Let’s go Beyond Brylach… to Balmoral Castle 🏰 ✨
Just over an hour from Brylach Steading, this makes the perfect day trip - especially as the journey takes you through STUNNING cairngorms scenery along the way 🏔️.
We spent the day gathering a little inspiration for Brylach, admiring the beautiful stonework, gardens, flowers and greenhouse - and of course paying close attention to the clocks in the clock towers 👀 🕰️
With Brylach and Balmoral sharing similar heritage, materials and history from the same period, it’s always fascinating spotting the little details and ideas we might bring back home with us.
There are so many incredible places to be explored from castles and coastlines, to woodland walks and whisky trails.
If you’re planning a stay with us, we’re always happy to help with personalised recommendations and suggested itineraries to help make the most of your time in and around Speyside. 💛
