Celebrating our eighth year at The Old Manse of Blair!
Hard to believe it’s now been eight years since we took ownership of the estate and began the journey to creating The Old Manse of Blair as a luxury tourism destination here in the Cairngorms National Park.
Our celebrations are slightly delayed as this week our daughter had surgery and we’ve been focusing on getting her back on her feet whilst Andi and the team have been looking after our guests. Happy to report Sara is doing splendidly well and even made it to the end of year prom with Angus. We are extremely proud!
