After many years of great work by the Balquhidder Community Broadband group, high speed broadband has finally arrived at Balquhidder Mhor Lodges!

So we've had quite a bit of rain over the past two days....however....every cloud has a silver lining. The Falls Of Dochart, in Killin, were in full spate today. Standing on the bridge, we took some great photos and a couple of videos....check them out...that's raging water indeed!

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!
