Just got a match in RCI through an ongoing search for HGVC Craigendarroch in August. I'm debating if I should keep it. We've never been to Scotland before. The kids will be 7 and 10 by then. I just started researching last night, so there's a lot I don't know yet. But some questions so far:
- Is HGVC Craigendarroch a good base for exploring? Seems most of the reviews say yes, a small number says no not much around. Looks like most things will be at least an hour drive away? Looking for kid friendly activities, beautiful scenery, and castles of course.
- Is August a good time to go? I know it's high season. My preference would probably be early June when the kids first get out of school. A little worried about the midges. But I guess the pro is that we can probably catch a Highland Games and The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo (would tack on a few days in Edinburgh).
- Anyone know if the RCI exchanges are in the suites or the lodges?
I would love advice from those who've been. TIA!
