| Why
Aberfoyle ? |
| Conferences, meetings, and events will appreciate Aberfoyle in Stirlingshire as the southern gateway to the romantic Trossachs (‘Highlands in miniature’), a narrow strip comprising birch-clad mountains, moors and streams close to lochs Achray, Katrine and Venachar. Sir Walter Scott’s story of Rob Roy and his poem ‘The Lady of the Lake’ encouraged an early 19th century interest in the area. From Aberfoyle visit the Trossachs Discovery Centre, the Scottish Wool Centre (the story of sheepdogs – with demonstrations!), and the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, and also explore the Lake of Menteith (and take the ferry to Inchmahome Priory) and Loch Ard. Venues include branded and independent hotels, as well as culture/heritage settings.
Proximity to cruising opportunities on the 100-year-old steamship SS Sir Walter Scott on Loch Katrine, the grave of Rob Roy at Balquhidder, the town of Callander (formerly famous as a setting in Dr. Finlay’s Casebook), and to the adventure pursuits options in the Trossachs National Park, the mountains of Crainlarich and Ben Lawers (note the Visitor Centre) and the West Highland Way (walk from Glasgow to Fort William), are further plus points. Conference delegates can reach Aberfoyle easily using the M9/A873 or A81 from the Glasgow area, by train (via Stirling), or using flights into the airports at Edinburgh or Glasgow.
In conclusion: think of Aberfoyle as a ‘Highlands type’ of meetings destination, yet within reach of the big cities, and full of possibilities for outdoor pursuits, heritage, and uniquely Scottish experiences.
