🚌 BIG NEWS FOR LONACH 2026! 🚌

We know that getting to the Games can be a challenge, especially if you're travelling from further afield, so we're delighted to announce that we've partnered with Stagecoach to run dedicated bus services for this year's games on Saturday 22nd August.

A huge thank you to Stagecoach for supporting this! 👏

We're currently planning three routes:

🟢 Service 208
Ballater – Cambus O’May – Dinnet – Ordie – Logie Coldstone → Strathdon (Bellabeg)
Potential connections with Service 201 to and from Braemar.

🔵 Service 209
Aboyne – Tarland – Ordie – Logie Coldstone → Strathdon (Bellabeg)
Potential connections with Service 201 for Aberdeen based travellers.

🟣 Service 210
Kemnay – Monymusk – Alford – Kildrummy – Glenkindie → Strathdon (Bellabeg)
Connecting with Service 220 in Kemnay for onward travel from Aberdeen.

The buses will arrive in time for the start of the Games, run throughout the day, and return at approximately 5pm and 8pm.

Final timetables will be confirmed closer to the event.

WE NEED YOUR HELP...

📣📣Great news from The Lonach Hall 📣📣

The LHCA committee are delighted to announce that Project Uplift has moved into its first stage. We are very grateful to the Cairngorms Trust for funding this important initial step, the Building Appraisal.

This exciting multi-phase project will help improve the hall while protecting its character and heritage, with main planned works including new timber windows, repairs to gutters, cladding and soffits and restoration of the gazebo.

More updates to follow as Project Uplift progresses!

In the meantime, The Lonach Hall will remain open and operating as normal. Head to our website to check availability and our new, more affordable hire rates:
