Rewilding Journeys with SCOTLAND: The Big Picture
Retreat to the wild with rewilding charity SCOTLAND: The Big Picture. Our small group Rewilding Journeys in the Cairngorms National Park are a carefully crafted blend of learning, inspiration and fun, in the company of expert guides and like-minded fellow travellers. Immerse yourself in beautiful wild places, breathing in the air, listening to the silence. Picnic alongside cascading rivers and seek out enriching encounters with wild animals. Along the way, discover and learn about pioneering rewilding projects that are fighting back for nature, and meet the inspiring people involved. We also offer bespoke rewilding journeys for those who prefer to escape into beautiful, wild places in the company of like-minded friends, family or work colleagues. The same carefully crafted blend of learning, inspiration and fun – the trademark of all our Rewilding Experiences – is locked in, but with a private group, we can be more flexible to create a unique and immersive experience.
Mar Lodge
Surrounded by exquisite scenery, Mar Lodge is a wonderful venue for civil, religious and humanist ceremonies. Within the Lodge, wedding vows can be exchanged in the Great Hall on the balcony of the grand staircase or in the bright and spacious Drawing Room. Ideal for drinks receptions, the stylish interconnecting public rooms allow guests to relax, mingle and enjoy the surroundings, before dinner in the beautifully appointed Craggan Ballroom or elegant Dining Room. From the Lodge, a short stroll through the grounds leads to the amazing Stag Ballroom for ceilidhs, dancing and the evening's festivities. A unique timber building displaying some 2,500 stag antlers dating from the Victorian era, the Stag Ballroom is also available for ceremonies, dinners and parties. For larger wedding receptions a marquee can be erected on the estate's vast lawns.
