Testimonials
The week was truly special and to be fair exceeded our expectations. Blair Athol is nothing short of spectacular and has opened the eyes of many of us from 'South of the Border' into what Scotland really has to offer. Your input has been greatly appreciated and made the whole experience memorable from start to finish. We will certainly be back for more.
Mr Hacket, Birmingham
What a surprise after the long drive, further and further from civilisation. Stunning surroundings, with deer on the hill, beautiful stream, long walks. Good rooms and beds and downstairs nice living and dining room and basic kitchen with all the necessary things, two dish washers and three fridges. Good lawn for croquet, the game we always play large gin-tonics. A real outdoor shooting lodge. Great.
