| Hi Andy and all
|
| The hotel is called Old Pines, and it resides in the beautiful village of
| Spean Bridge. Blimey, I'm beginning to sound like something out of the
| Scottish Tourist Board, and I don't even come from these parts (smile).
| Yes, they can organise excursions for you. There are lots of walks, and
the
| Nevis Range is not too far away. We went there this year, and went for a
| ride up in one of the gondolas. That, I must say, was hilarious. It was
| probably the only place, about 2,500 feet up, that we could all get mobile
| phone signals. My husband was desperate to explore the gondola as we were
| travelling up, but I made him sit down. My son, on the other hand,
couldn't
| look down!
|
| The URL for the hotel is
| http://www.oldpines.co.uk/default.asp?page=home
|
| I hope this is of some use to anyone who is interested in coming north. I
| warn you though, it's a heck of a long way from you southerners (smile).
|
| Jackie
