The head of Mar Lodge Estate said the property is a 'fascinating look back at how the royals used to spend their free time'.
A picnic cottage enjoyed by Queen Victoria during her visits to Balmoral has been restored to its former glory by the National Trust for Scotland. The cottage was built by Queen Victoria's granddaughter, Princess Louise, but later had to be saved from disrepair after it was placed on the Buildings at Risk Register.
' In addition to repairing the fabric of the building, a covered wooden porch was added to the exterior to help reinstate the cottage's original features discovered during the project's research. Mr Frew added: 'Our archival research and subsequent archaeological survey showed that there used to be a porch on the property, with our archaeologists discovering post holes for the structure during research on site.
