1,000 views on 20th December 2013 The Band performing on the Castle lawn - sadly the light was fading but what a sky! That's Loch Ness visible through the tress. Northern Constabulary Community Pipe Band fulfilled another engagement at Aldourie Castle, overlooking Loch Ness, on the evening of Thursday 15th August 2013. The sun was already low in the sky, behind the mountains, by the time our performance time arrived - but it was a beautiful evening. A hint of rain had gone and a slight breeze helped to keep the worse of the midges away. The Mini-Band, comprising 6 pipers and 4 drummers, played down the side of the castle on the lawn overlooking the Loch, and then formed up in a semi-circle in front of the Castle's viewing area to entertain the guests. Meanwhile the sky was producing its own beautiful performance in harmony with the Band! The Castle and its Estate is truly an idyllic and tranquil setting. "Nestling on the quiet southern shore of the famous Loch Ness, close to the City of Inverness, the capital of the Scottish Highlands, Aldourie Castle Estate offers you a rare taste of Highland living at its best." Please visit www.aldouriecastle.co.uk/ for lots more fascinating information about the Castle and its Estate.

"This was a gem of a find! Halls a bit dark and in need of some love, but my room was spacious and spotless with a very comfortable bed and lovely hot showers with great water pressure. Staff were helpful and welcoming. The lobby was lovely, with comfortable couches and chairs and was decorated for the Holidays. "
