If your passing Ardverikie house on the A86 I’ll be there with the missus. Sadly Westyless but will have the kettle on!

I think I'm unlikely for this run, Gary. Just plugged it in to the satnav and it's a 533 mile round trip 😮 for me. Don't have the time to make a weekend of it by splitting the run so will just wave to you from a (considerable) distance 👋🤣

 

Cheers, Brian.

The main road to Newtonmore passes this place. I didn’t know you could rent it all the times I have driven past 😲

 

I am up for this and will probably drive up to Kingussie, meet you there then double back and around.

It's the gate house to Ardverikie Castle, which was Glen Bogle in the Monarch of the Glen tv series. The gate house was seen in several episodes. Hope you enjoy your stay Chris. I'll bring along a spare alternator:-)

I'm ok for the run on the 7th. We're back from holiday the day before, so fingers crossed that the car starts!

Gary,

May be staying in Glenlivet that weekend, but, as in the other post, we will be in the camper....

Have a great run,

 

Dave.

Yes looking forward to it - the wife has lusted after this place ever since it was on the tv show. 

 

I’m hoping the Honda won’t need an alternator but I know who to ask 😁
