The popular programme of summer festivities culminates with the spectacular Tattoo, an event not to be missed.

Family New Year holiday. House is located just 2 minutes to the centre of the town.Every aspect of the house is excellent The back garden was excellent for the dogs to have a run around. The Garret hotel is just through the wall ((There was a New Year party but we never heard any noises) the staff are very welcoming and the food is excellent. The town itself has much to offer from just simply a walk around to a wonderful collection of shops.William Grant. 27Dec to 3rd Jan 2026.
