Hotel In Inverurie
Pittodrie House
Macdonald Pittodrie House at Chapel of Garioch just outside Inverurie, dates back to 1480 and is a stunning building steeped in Scottish history which saw famous Scot's such as Robert The Bruce and the Marquis of Montrose.
The turrets and spiral staircase of the Hotel adds to its charm and the log fires in the winter and four poster beds combines a romantic feel.
The Hotel has some stunning views of the hills of Grampian which includes Bennachie Hill. Visitors can expect to see some Scottish wildlife such as deer, buzzard, foxes and wildcat in the surrounding Country Estate

My new novel:
The Aberdeen skies are under attack from an enemy jet. It is spilling a strange yellow smoke. Minutes later, people start killing each other.
Former Royal Air Force Regiment Gunner Jason Harper witnesses this and then his wife, Pippa, telephones him, shouting that she needs him. They then get cut off. He sets straight out, unprepared for the nightmare that unfolds during his journey. Everyone seems to want to kill him.
Along the way, he pairs up with fellow survivor Imogen. But she enjoys killing the living dead far too much. Will she kill Jason in her blood thirst? Or will she hinder his journey through this zombie filled dystopian landscape to find his pregnant wife?
The Fence is the first in this series of post-apocalyptic military survival thrillers from the torturous mind of local horror and science fiction novel writer C.G. Buswell.

The original Pittodrie House was burnt down at the time of the Covenanters by Montrose. It was then rebuilt in 1675.
The Erskine family were the original owners of Pittodrie House but their family died sown with no inheritors and the House was bought in 1898 by the grandfather of the present owner Theo Smith. He had turned his grandfathers home into a hotel in 1977 (cited in the book
Claire Macdonalds Scotland).

We've written a book where I talk about growing up in Aberdeen and then joining the army to be a medic and nurse, and developing military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.

The author, Damien Lewis, said of Lynne:
"A powerful account of what one dog means to one man on his road to recovery. Both heart-warming and life-affirming. Bravo Chris and Lynne. Bravo Bravehound."
