Welcome to Loch Lomond Bird of Prey Centre.
 
   
For a unique visitor experience, come along to our centre. You will be given a guided tour by one of our knowledgeable volunteers or staff members. Learn about the individual birds, see them close up, stand two feet away from a Golden Eagle. Watch the birds training or flying in our aviary compound. Learn about our rescue facilities and success stories. No one leaves disappointed. The centre is located to the rear of the Loch Lomond Homes & Gardens Centre, enter through the Garden Centre.

Please click on the link below. This website explains the rare condition suffered by a few young people in the UK. I have been following the harrowing story of Hollie, a brave young girl who puts up with this condition every hour of every day. Such bravery brings a tear to the eye. I could post photos of what can happen in situations that we all take for granted, however, I feel they would be too shocking for most.
 
This is the video from Ch5 the other night when Hollie and her mother Leah were interviewed about her condition.
 
  
 
Weddings at Loch Lomond
 
 We have recently been involved in the launch of the "Weddings at Loch Lomond" brochure. The idea behind "Weddings at Loch Lomond" is to provide a "one stop shop" for anyone planning a wedding, and offers stunning venues and quality service.
