Duffus Estate - owned by the Dunbar Family for twelve generations is now run by Ed & Caroline Dunbar.
(1)

A family run Estate in magnificent Moray, with 6 welcoming self catering cottages, Kula Coffee Hut at Duffus Castle, The Koffie Box at Duffus House & our brand new campsite! As well as the more traditional farming and let property business, we have five great holiday properties - Old Duffus Farmhouse sleeping 8, Kirkton Cottage sleeping 4 and Duffus House Lodge sleeping 3 plus our luxury eco-cabin sleeping 2 with epic views to Duffus Castle & a beautiful wee seaside apartment in nearby Lossiemouth. 2021 saw us launch Kula Coffee - a shepherds hut selling barista coffee, speciality tea & artisan hot chocolate at Duffus Castle. More exciting projects for the Estate are currently in the pipeline - watch this space.

Happy Monday folks 😊.

We have some availability in our cottages over the coming weeks. If you fancy a wee break before Christmas we’d love to welcome you.

Think crisp woodland walks, bracing beaches and then coming back to roaring wood burners giving you all the cosy vibes you could wish for 🍁🔥🥃

Oh, and there a few characters on the Estate, such as Poppy, who you just have to meet! 🐮

🏕️ And that’s a wrap! The first season of Duffus Estate Camping & The Koffie Box is officially done & dusted 😅

🏕️ A huge THANK YOU to you happy campers for keeping us so busy. We loved meeting you & welcoming you all onto the Estate.

🏕️ Did we get everything right? Nope, but we learned a lot and have a big list of winter jobs to keep us busy 😂

🏕️ The calendar is OPEN for 2027 bookings. We’re holding our 2026 prices until the end of the year. So get booking 😄

🏕️ Finally, a mahoosive thank you to our team. This campsite has been 4 years in the making & we couldn’t have done it without them all. Teamwork makes the dream work - cheesy but true! 🤩

🏕️ We can’t wait to welcome you all in 2027 - it’ll be here before we know it! 💫

Happy Halloween!

Here are a selection of my favourite tombstones in St Peter’s Kirk…

It isn’t a spooky place at all - it’s actually a lovely peaceful spot, filled with birdsong & wild flowers.

However, the graves are ideal for Halloween posts 😉🪦👻

A rubbish pile outside of Kirktoun Cottage can only mean one thing…a new bathroom is in the offing 🚿

This is a job we’ve been wanting to do for ages, but it kept slipping down the priority list. As ever, what started as just a new bathroom, has typically grown arms & legs, & now nearly every room is getting a little bit of TLC.

It’s a hard working holiday cottage though and we love investing back in it - & all our cottages - making them as lovely as we can for our guests to enjoy.

I’ll keep you updated as things progress…🛠️

🍎And that’s our 2026 apple harvest all safely delivered to Helen & Bill, the proud new owners of elginsorchardscotland now based at Byres Farm

🍏 We have a long heritage of growing fruit here at Duffus. Once I dig it out I’ll share some photos of some amazing printed booklets, dating from the 1800’s, published by one of Ed’s ancestors. They detail all the types of apples & pears grown here - over 140 & 120 different types respectively 😳

🏕️ Wow, after a long 4 year slog, we finally managed to get our campsite open on 29th May😅

🚐 Since then, the last few months have gone past in a flash. We’ve learned loads whilst also meeting loads incredible campers. It’s been great chatting to you all & hearing about your camping adventures around Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

🏕️ We’ve even had quite a few returning campers which has been particularly satisfying - we’re obviously doing something right 😅

🚐 Now we’ve hit October, we only have 4 weeks left of the season! Sooo, if you’ve been meaning to visit us, this is your nudge to get booking before we close at the end of the month. We’d love to welcome you 🤩
