The Kirk & its surroundings

The Kirk and Gardens

Set beside the village green and 13th century Udny Castle, the Kirk sits within the quiet beauty of the Aberdeenshire countryside.

The Kirk offers a peaceful rural setting and is conveniently close to Aberdeen and it's international airport, as well as the nearby traditional market towns of Ellon and Inverurie.

Adjacent to the Kirk is a beautifully maintained walled garden, originally planted in the 1980's with the involvement of King Charles III. A substantial granite bench commemorates this occasion.

The village of Udny Green

This is a truly beautiful location. The Hamlet of Udny Green boasts one of only a handful of traditional village greens remaining in Scotland.

The historic Udny Castle and grounds complete what must be one of the most beautiful country village locations in the country.

Our region

Aberdeenshire stretches from “one of the last great places on earth - the Cairngorms - to one of the world’s top-rated coastlines”. According to National Geographic. 

This remarkable part of Scotland is defined by contrast and variety. Rolling farmland give way to heather-clad hills and ancient forests, while fishing villages, wide sandy beaches and dramatic coastal landscapes lie within easy reach of the countryside that surrounds Udny Green. 

The region is rich in history, with centuries-old castles, ancient stone circles and communities whose stories remain woven into the landscape. From Royal Deeside and the Cairngorms to the harbours  and beaches of the north-east coast, Aberdeenshire offers a strong sense of place that continues to shape the character of the area today.

Whether visiting for a special occasion or spending time exploring the wider region, guests will find a landscape defined by heritage, beauty and a deep connection to Scotland's past and present .
