The Old Mill, Peterculter

I wondered if anyone knew whether The Old Mill next to the campsite in Peterculter was still open? I get the impression it has now closed.
Thank you!

Re: The Old Mill, Peterculter

Looks like she's gone according to this October 01 2014 press report

Re: The Old Mill, Peterculter

Oh dear, that does look pretty final.
Thanks, Humph.

Re: The Old Mill, Peterculter

The Old Mill is definitely closed and will be used as accommodation for people working on the new Aberdeen bypass that starts this month.

If you are staying in the campsite and want to get food, the nearest place is probably the Plough in Peterculter. Cross the river and go up the hill. Turn left and it's about 10 minutes walk. Probably 25-30 minutes walk from campsite. Food is standard pub food - it's OK. There is also a small M&S food store in the petrol station if you need to restock.

The Maryculter House Hotel might be marginally closer but it is a rather stiff place and I'm not sure how they would feel about backpackers.
