Country Park – Brechin Castle Garden Centre

COVID-19 UPDATE

Following the recent Scottish Government update relating to coronavirus, and the subsequent re-classification of garden centres as non-essential retail, our Garden Centre, Store, Coffee Shop & Country Park are required to close from 8pm on Thursday 24th December.

This closure will remain in place for a minimum of 3 weeks, at which point the situation will be re-assessed by the Government.

Please check back regularly for news and updates on when we will re-open.

All the staff at Brechin Castle Centre would like to wish our customers a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Crazy Golf

Crazy Golf is here!

Fun for all the family, our latest addition to the park is this 9-hole crazy golf course. Can you get the ball up the ramps, round the corners, negotiate the horses and toadstools, through the helter-skelter and lighthouse over the bridge, and out through the castle?

You can find our new course just outside the entrance into the park.

Fairy Trail

Enjoy some outdoor fun with all the family & explore Brechin Castle Centre Fairy Trail. Using the activity booklet solve the clues and questions to make your way round each point on our trail (booklets are free for all paying children).

Keep your eyes peeled for well disguised woodland friends. Only those that believe in fairies might be lucky enough to spot them.

Please wear appropriate footwear as you will be passing through woodland areas. Unfortunately our trail is not suitable for wheelchairs & double buggies.

Sledge Run

Great fun for children and adults alike – try our new sledge run and see who can go fastest. Will it be Mum, Dad or the kids?

Tire out the kids (and the big kids) – whizz down the run then run back up the path to the top and down you go again.

Suitable for most age groups.

Play Combine

New to the park is our play combine harvester. Great for creative minds, the kids can play farmer in the drivers seat, climb through the tunnels, and make a quick exit down the slide.

Giant Sandpit

This is no ordinary little sandpit. This giant has buckets of room to get creative. Kids can cook up some sand pies in our little kitchen, have fun with our oversized utensils and let their imaginations run wild on our new play digger.

Go Karts

Take our rough terrain go karts for a spin around the track. We have karts to fit ages 3-99. Brand new are these 2-seater models for double the fun.

Wooden Maze

Fun for kids and grown-ups too - test yourself against our wooden maze and see if you can make it to the flagpole in the centre. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

Farm Play Courtyard

There’s loads in our Courtyard to keep the kids entertained.

They can head over to the tractor garage, choose their tractor and trailer, fuel up at the petrol pump, then off they go round our track and over the humpback bridge.

They can have fun with our water play area or let their creativity flow with our flower and tree chalkboards. They can even have a go at milking Brenda our cow! With a climbing prism and tower with slide too, there’s sure to be something they will love to do in our courtyard.

Jumping Pillows

Our jumping pillows are great fun and not just for the kids! We have a small pillow for the kids and a big pillow for the grown ups.

Barrel Train

Great fun for all ages! Our ever popular barrel train runs at weekends & school holidays between 12-2pm (weather permitting). Rides cost £1.

Dragon's Lair

You can still enjoy our more traditional play too with an extensive range of swings, adult/baby swing, slides, climbing frames, play fort and zip wire.

Food Unit & Seating Area

There’s no need to stop having fun to eat. Enjoy hot or cold drinks, Cream O’ Galloway ice-cream, and a range of snacks at our outdoor food unit. We have a seating area overlooking the fun and also picnic benches dotted around the park for you to use. The food unit is open from 10am – 4pm, weekends and holidays (weather dependent).

Please feel free to bring your own picnic

We’ve provided lots of new picnic tables and benches for your to use if you would prefer to bring along your own food from home. Tables are conveniently placed near to all the action too.
