Aden Country Park, Country park in Mintlaw, Scotland.
Aden Country Park is a country park in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, covering about 230 acres of land. The grounds feature walking paths through gardens and forests, a central lake with waterfowl, and a 19th-century farmstead that now houses an agricultural museum.
The farmstead at the park's core was built in the 1800s with a distinctive semi-circular layout typical of that era. The buildings were preserved and converted into a museum that documents the agricultural history of the region.
The grounds regularly host bagpipe competitions and heritage events where visitors can learn about traditional Scottish farming practices. The historic farmstead offers visitors insights into how rural life was lived in earlier times.
The park offers visitors multiple facilities including a restaurant, gift shop, children's playground, and BBQ areas distributed throughout the grounds. Whether you want to walk and explore or take a break, these facilities are well-positioned for convenient access.
The grounds feature a Victorian arboretum integrated with specialized gardens, including spaces designed for sensory experiences. A dedicated area for horse training activities offers an unexpected dimension to the park that many visitors overlook.
