Parks & Nature

Lovely park in the heart of Ferryhill. You can walk here by joining the footbridge on Holburn Street just around the corner from the apartment (part of the Deeside Way, which stretches all the way to Ballater). Bike-friendly. Take a wonder round the Winter Gardens whilst there, they're quite impressive.
