    I wish I could give you some information, but when we were there last year, the Queen was doing the grand opening of the visitor's center... of course visitors weren't allowed in. ( She was also at Holyroyd house when we were in Edinburgh so we could go in there either).

    Thanks For The Responses

    I appreciate the replies, I was told but don't have a timetable in hand, that I can take a bus from the city centre. Perhaps it would be a long wait for a bus back at this time of the year. As several people mentioned, there might well be snow. I am hoping not too bad, as my dates coincide with rail service being disrupted last winter. If it is too bitterly cold it might be a day for the tall stool. However, I was heartened to hear that a gentleman who does walking tours of Inverness runs the tours year round so I was pleased at that.

    Sometimes us locals are not the people to ask as we have no need to know about the details as we just take it all for granted, as locals do the world over.However, if there is anything I can help with, then just ask. The threat of snow is not one to ignore at that time of year.
