I want to take kids to .........

[jambuttie]

Balamory

How fab would that be?

"If you see all the different coloured houses"

Anyone know a link to it

My dh's good friend is great friends with Edie McReedie. I keep trying to engineer it so I can drop by his house with the kids when she's around.

apparently there's nothing there, apart from the different coloured houses. My friend's parents live there and say that the amount of disappointed people never ceases to amaze them.

Sorry... don't mean to rain on your parade.

cheers ma dear

could be happy holidays for us

we went in December 03. Kids loved it. We were on the island for 3 days, which to be honest was too long. Agree with Marsy, not alot there. hotel was lovely and it was very relaxing and quiet. If we did it again we would incorporate it into a holiday on the mainland and just have one night there. We stayed in PC plum's bedroom

Tobermory is fine if you like Scottish islands for a holiday anyway. I think people expect to find them filming or it to be like a Balamory stage show.

I holidayed there as a kid staying at the Youth Hostel when the male toilets were still outside and hot water wasn't quite on tap yet.

It really does depend on expectations I think.
