Mini Break at Slochd Mhor Lodge near Carrbridge

Not just a mini break, but also a break with tradition: this time we won't go to Iona. Closer to home, Slochd Mhor Lodge near Carrbridge promises to perfectly accommodate our vision behind these trips: hang out together, sing, eat and relax. As always, this will give us plenty of opportunity to get to know each other better and strengthen our sense of community.

Our first Choir Trip was a long weekend on Iona in Spring 2005. We sang in the Abbey on Sunday to an audience of around 80. The same year we went back for a Monday to Saturday in October. We again sang in the Abbey, but this time not as a performance. By now a tradition, we revisited in 2006, when we were blessed with five days of great weather. In spite of being a non-official concert, we sang for more than 60 people in the Abbey on Thursday.

In 2007 and 2008 we made more successful visits to the island. Unfortunately, in 2009 the annual trip was cancelled because too few members signed up, so we were unable to book the hostel.

  Iona Trip October 2005

Iona is a very special place. We stayed in the superb hostel. All trips we were lucky to have good weather generally, inviting us to explore the island and its beautiful coasts.
