What time do the classes start? Where do I stay? What accommodation is available? I am bringing my family with me. What can they do while I'm playing the harp? How much does the course cost? When is the harp Course? What dates? How do I get to the Harp Course? I have special dietary requirements. We are based in Mellon Charles, near Aultbea, in Wester Ross. About 77miles from Inverness in one of the most spectacular and rugged parts of North West Scotland. The area is steeped in musical tradition and culture and Gaelic is still spoken and sung locally. There are regular Cèilidhs where people meet dance and sing and Strupags where people gather for lunch and a 'chin wag'. What time do the classes start? Back to top Sessions begin at 10am each morning and finish at 3.30pm in the afternoon, with breaks for coffee, tea, hot chocolate and fruit tea - and yummy homemade bakes to go with them - with an informal lunch in the middle of the day. Dinner will be served around 7pm. Where

Back to top How do I get to the Harp Course? Back to top By far the easiest and most striking way to get here is by car - especially when travelling with a Harp. By Road: From Inverness follow the A835 Ullapool Road to 12 miles south of Ullapool - Braemore Junction. Turn left at the Braemore Junction and take the A832 to Aultbea. On reaching Aultbea, turn right at the Aultbea Butchers down Birchburn and at the T Junction turn right again. Follow the road to Mellon Charles for approximately 4 miles. The Harp Course will be sign posted from there. By Bus: There is a daily service from Inverness and a not so regular service from Ullapool The Timetables are available at http://www.rapsons.com/june06/AreaH.pdf By Rail: Train to Inverness or Achnasheen or Garve, then coach/bus to Aultbea where you can be picked up and taken to your accommodation. By Plane: Fly to Inverness, then coach/bus to Aultbea where you can be picked up and taken to your accommodation. Another alternative is to travel to Inverness by your choice of transport then hire a car and travel on to Sea Croft. Sorry but it is not possible for us to meet you in Inverness. I have special dietary requirements. Back to top The bulk of our food is grown locally and organically. The Fantastic food will be provided by an experienced caterer - having a caterer allows us to provide for most dietary needs including gluten-free or diary-free. Please let us know at the time of booking if you would like us to provide for a special diet. Can
