Ardvorlich to Lochearnhead, Loch Earn, Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland

Some of my discarded photos and footage from Loch Earn trip. The village hiding behind the pink Rosebay Willowherb (which is a beautiful weed) is Lochearnhead itself which is at the North West corner off Loch Earn.

I have included a map. It’s no ordinary Ordnance Survey map as it’s a Royal Air Force map so it has a Powerline overprint which is why there are dark blue lines – sorry, it’s the only Loch Tay and Glen Dochart map I have! On the photo of the map (which is orientated North) you should be able to see Ardvorlich House and Cottage on the South Shore of Loch Earn, and Edinample further west along the South Shore. On the North shore is Dalveich and Ardveich.

The road leading to Ardvorlich House with the gatehouse, I am presuming. Ardvorlich House is basically set back into the fields so these small gatehouses would have been entrances to the land surrounding the House.

As I spin around i am looking over to the North shore and the area I scan over the water beside and behind the house is Dalveich and Ardveich.

I took a picture of Edinample mausoleum, and have pinched a picture of Edinample Castle from the web as the grounds are private. Edinample belonged to Clan Campbell. The castle was built in late 16th century, although what you see in the photo has some later architecture bolted on. The mausoleum was built in the early 18th century and is believed to have been a mausoleum for a Lt Col Alexander Campbell who bought Edinample in 1717.
