I'm quite sure if you posted your plight on here we could have helped. There are a small number of B&Bs for example which are not listed with the Tourist Office etc but known by locals.

Perhaps next time?

That is kind of my point.

I was talking about lodging for major events in which hundreds/thousands of people come to cambeltown. It wasn't a complaint. I saw what I considered a need in town and thought it was worth mentioning, and thought someone might think it was worth considering.

I don't think anyone reads this as a complaint Bobbie? There are some valid points. Totally agree for major events people could take visitors in. That is what happens in Tarbert for example for the Scottish Series. People vacate their houses and stay with their family while visitors stay in their houses. Rather nice earner and doesn't upset any accommodation providers in the village. As you say people want to be close to the actual event itself so whilst we have a few enquiries for the music festival etc most people want to be in the town. We're normally full in August anyway. 8)

Mind you, a wee post on here would have brought you to the town for one night surely..
