As the Indian summer continues, we have been treated to some spectacular temperature inversions at Balquhidder Mhor Lodge. Here are a few early morning pictures taken from the decking....

The Indian summer we've enjoyed has certainly put the bees into overdrive. Walking around the paths a Balquhidder Mhor Lodge, you could see literally hundreds of bees gorging on the nectar of the purple thistle plants. Here's a gallery of the best shots we took...it's looking promising for the honey!

Strolling around Balquhidder Mhor Lodge at the moment, Blackites (aka blackberries if you don't hail from Cumbria!) are in abundance, ready to be picked right off the bush. Here's a great idea if you can only manage to pick a few of them....try our recipe for a Blackite Gin Cocktail....

A big thanks to the Visit Scotland tourism services team who have now made it easy to find Balquhidder Mhor Log Cabin using the @VisitScotland website (www.visitscotland.com). You first search in the Loch Lomond area and then add the filters 'cabin' and 'hot tub' - (found under 'Well Being')

Strolling along the Rob Roy way today and came across this beautiful toadstool nestling in alongside the purple heather.....would love to know if it was edible!
