    Anyone got any recommendations?


    We're hoping to move in June craig or else you could hve come over and stayed at castle Allan. Other wise I know of a beautiful B&B in lochranza (4 star) that I could get you a discount in. Very very nice indeed.

    Sun left lochranza in November and won't be back till Febuary, i kid you not. Kim's not settling and the roads are pants, add to that shopping at the Co-op, 129p for unleaded, and missing all the amazing NMS stuff, we're thinking about Troon, Ayr, possibly back to Largs or even up near Aberdeen ( so I can get some car park pics by Ben)

    We spent a lovely week up past Inverness near Fort George last year. Think it was Dolphin bay cottages. Very modern converted old inn I think it was.

    Nice one! Lol at the car park pics

    Westhill, Elrick, Ellon, Kintore, Inverurie, Alford, Bridge of Don (possibly too city orientated), Balmedie, Bieldside, Cove, Kingsells, Blackburn etc etc

    Most of the above aren't 20+ miles out of the city centre though. Turriff is though, and there are lots of brand new houses for relatively cheap!
