In winter a dusting of snow covers
the highland peaks and the days are crisp, clear
and bracing – great for tobogganing and cosy
fireside evenings. |
 |
Summer months are warm, with lots
of blue sky days, this is the time for fishing,
canoeing and getting out on the water. |
 |
Autumn is fresh and cool with
deciduous trees ablaze, in Spring the gardens are
a highlight. |
