The Catstrand has been awarded Gold level (the highest status available) in the Green Tourism Business Scheme.

The report noted that:

The CatStrand does very well and maintains the prestigious GOLD level of award. The centre is much more than just an Art Venue ‐ It is a community hub, where locals and tourists are brought together. Art is showcased but their is also lots of local crafts, local books and excellent information on the many low carbon activities such as walks and cycle routes in the surrounding area. The venue has been involved in some of the Dark Skies initiatives that have taken place and continues to run the minibus service (with an additional bus). The site is still very green sue the wood chip heating system, high levels of insulation and modern refurbishment. Overall an excellent green venue and an example to others in Scotland. 

 

We are proud to announce that The Glenkens have been shortlisted for a Creative Place Award 2013.
