The Callander Jazz and Blues Festival returns this weekend, running from 30th September to October 2nd. Once again a great line up for the largest rural Jazz and Blues festival in Scotland.

Loch Voil is just a short drive from Balquhidder Mhor Lodges and our recent guests enjoyed wild water swimming when the Loch was settled like a mill pond... many thanks to Lynn for these photos :)

One of our guests had an amazing experience when they set up a remote camera aimed at the bird box at the rear of the Balquhidder Mhor Soghail Lodge. Enticed with a special treat, the Pine Marten arrived at about 3.00am and were captured on film. Watch out for one him falling off the tree on the video!

We had beautiful blue skies over Balquhidder Mhor Lodges this weekend and we were lucky to see that the Canada Geese are back at the otter pond with their offspring!
