I haven't been for last couple of years as found the entry cost was bit much for what you get. We used to stay for whole weekend and there was plenty to do but in recent years you were round it in half a day and ready to go home.

 

We talked about going last year but it was rained off, or was that the year before? We've talked about going this year but still swithering.

 

Been told that the Dumfries one, Drumlanrig Estate? is better one to go to and was cheaper to get into as well.

I will be heading to Scone this year for the whole weekend, it's the perfect start to the school holidays cover my wife's birthday in one go. We will be staying near by if anyone want to meet up and have a brew or burger on one of the days.
