So many things to do and see with fabulous walks, views, cafes and a trip to Loch Garden where coal tits will feed from your hand is a must for wildlife lovers!!! Wish we were staying longer. Love it! Thank you Kate for making our holiday so lovely and for the very tasty gooseberry jam. Had a fantastic time.
