Passed Down In The Family
There are however, a few other details about Birkhall that are known. The property belonged to Queen Victoria first. Since then the estate has been transferred to the royal family of Britain. She used to go to Birkhall with her sister, Margaret, during the Queen’s childhood to relax. Then until her death, it became the Queen Mother’s residence. Her grandchild, Charles, inherited the Scottish estate after her death.

The Gardens
Despite the fact that Birkhall’s inner workings are mostly kept under wraps, in an interview with Country Life magazine in 2013, Charles still talked about its gardens. “It is such a special place – particularly because it was made by my grandmother. It is a childhood garden, and all I’ve done, really, is enhance it a bit.” Said the prince about the garden.
