One of the many reasons we moved to Tarland

About two years ago whilst living in rented accomodation we saw a possible house in Tarland. We weren't really that sure where that was but knew it was close to the Aboyne area where we were looking for houses. The advert on the Property Centre wasn't that great but as there were so few houses on the market we thought we would go and have a look. One problem, there was about 15-30 cm of snow on the roads to Tarland, but having been told they were passable with care, we drove out to Tarland on a lovely cold March day.

One of the many great views that day was of coming out at the top of Queens View about 2 miles from Tarland. It was then a very snowy scene but with a view of many miles.

I now get to to see this view twice every working day as I drive to work and it is still a privilege.
