What a great holiday it's been, with the place really busy and wonderful weather. They've even been seen in swimming! Of course it is the best time of year in Carradale; all the wild rhododendrons are coming out and the hills are covered with great patterns of mauve and pinks; the bluebells and wild garlic fill the woodlands . And now you'll have to put it off till next year.

Big sailing event up in Tarbert this weekend with some very swish racing yachts whizzing around Loch Fyne competing for Tunnocks chocolate biscuits (no, that's a lie, they actually have silverware). The view from the hill above the loch with all the coloured sails and spinnakers is quite a sight.

So that's it; start of the summer season; everything up and running. Time for a visit
