Craigowan Lodge

Currently this is the only picture of Craigowan Lodge available on Flickr.com

Craigowan Lodge is a seven-bedroom stone house about a mile from the main castle on the Balmoral Estate. It is more rustic than the castle, and was often the home of Prince Charles and Princess Diana and Princes William & Harry when they visited. Now it is usually a home for visiting VIP guests.

In the obituary of Michael Andreevich Romanoff, the highest ranking member of the Russian imperial family, who died in 2008, it was noted that his family spent most of WWII at Craigowan Lodge.

Prince Albert's Cairn can be seen at top right of the hill in the background (1 o'clock position).

The Lodge has been in the news periodically since 2005, because the Queen often spends the first few days of her Balmoral summer vacation in the lodge as the Castle and grounds are still open to the public.
