15th – 22nd July 2017

July 22, 2017 by in

A lovely stay as always in Glenfruin Lodge.  This year we went to 3 Highland Games, a treat if you want something different.

Glasgow Museum and Botanical Gardens also well worth a visit as it Stirling Castle.

A mixed bag of weather but never a problem as plenty to see and do.  Also a lovely cottage to return to at the end of the day.

Will be back next year.
