VisitScotland’s Scottish Thistle Awards are recognised as the benchmark of excellence and innovation across Scottish tourism and on Friday 26 October, Sir Peter and Lady Erskine were delighted to be the recipients of the Regional Events and Festivals award.

Using Cambo’s 70 acres of woodlands swathed in carpets of snowdrops Lady Erskine has developed this natural tourist attraction from a small honesty box and 170 visitors in 2001 to a national Scottish Snowdrop Festival in 2007, attracting 7505 visitors to Cambo and visitors to a further 63 venues throughout Scotland and supplemented by activities such as snowdrop seminars, art exhibitions and the showcasing of Scottish craftspeople and artists.
