What's Happening??

Well, with just about all of the snow gone from the hills, Nevis Ski Resort are reporting an increase of 5757 visitors to the slopes just in the month of February. So that must be good news for the area, you might not be able to ski now but you can visit Nevis range and have a go on the gondola and take in the breath taking views from the top. http://www.nevisrange.co.uk


This week our guests have been enjoying lovely bright sunny weather with some of the kids even venturing into the Loch!!!! Very brave!! Or temperatures have hit a mighty 18 degrees, not bad for April.

Not only are the guests out and about but the wildlife seems to be making an appearance, the Pinemarten has been seeking out his favourite jam and bread and was photographed on the balconies just the other night, he has also been in our wheelie bins, scattering rubbish everywhere!
The red squirrel has been enjoying the warmer weather and feasting on our nut feeders.

The area is starting to get busy now and we are well and truly up and running for the season. There is plenty going on in and around Loch Leven Holidays
