    good show, reminded me of the old spring show in the RDS.

    if you like dairy cattle the ayrshires are very impressive

    if its beef then its nice to see the highlands and galloways and the shorthorns are far ahead of the irish counterparts.

    Limosines and angus about the same as the irish, Irish blues and charolais better IMO

    Give yourself enough time to see edinburagh too. its a great city

    Great show if you get the weather.Its right beside the airport but well worth hiring a car and do a few of the sights around like Stirling ,Edinburgh city etc

    Great show and not a big site to get around with a hard standing everywhere and good vacilities too. Very impressed with the Clydesdale horses at it too. Something for all IMO.
    We stayed in the city and there is a return bus every 5 minutes to the site and it runs all day. Best way to get to the site.
    Any of the hotels in the city are accessable and the show grounds is right beside the airport too.

    Planning to go back in a few years for deffo.
