So to celebrate International Mountain Day, we thought it would be a good idea to post some pictures of the nearest Munro to Balquhidder mhor Lodges, Ben Vorlich. It's two for the price for the price of one, as you can also ascend Stuc a'Chroin, a second Munro, just behind Ben Vorlich.

We spent last week putting up the Christmas tress and lights at Balquhidder Mhor Lodges this week.....it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas :)

It happened 54 years ago to this date.....after the Fab Four played a gig in Edinburgh....and then took their R&R (rock n'roll?) at the Four Seasons Hotel at St Fillans, close to Balquhidder Mhor Lodge. Read the account posted in the Strathearn Herald at the time!

#DefenderJam is an annual family festival set in the stunning backdrop of Monachyle Mhor, Balquhidder, near Callander. The idea behind this is to bring together like-minded people who like Land Rovers, good food and drink and a fun and sociable day that the whole family will enjoy. The venue is just 20 minutes drive from Balquhidder Mhor Lodges.

Another brilliantly sunny day today at Balquhidder Mhor.....followed by a lovely sunset :)
