Good laugh, bit cold and windy so need to bare that in mind. The people running it were friendly and accommodating.

Too far away and no transport meant expensive taxis. The games were a laugh but not particularly exciting.

Bit basic and couldn’t understand the guy running the event. Very pricey for what we did.

Great fun, not too hard and energetic with a hangover but a great way to break up the drinking. Staff were great fun!

Very unique experience for all of us. Important for us to experience the traditional Scottish culture while in Edinburgh and this seemed a great idea. Really good fun had by everyone involved. Only disappointing thing was the organisation could have been better.

Great fun, the staff were brilliant and up for a laugh and the games were funny while still being competitive. Perfect as a distraction from drinking so that you have some memorable memories.

Brilliant. Completely different to anything else we'd done before on previous stags. The 2 girls who worked there were brilliant
