Philiphaugh News July 2008

After a large rain fall over the last week. The River Ettrick has risen and there are plenty of fresh fish in the river.
 

You can see these fresh fish at the Salmon Viewing Centre on the under water camera.
 

We have just installed a 2nd underwater camera and with fresh fish in the river we hope to see the salmon from all angles.

 

Before you begin your visit into the Salmon Viewing Centre. Stop in at the Waterwheel Restaurant and hire our brand new audio player and learn about the battle of Philiphaugh that took place in 1645.
 

After visiting the Salmon Viewing Centre take a short drive up to the Philiphaugh Gardens and buy some delicious fruit and vegetables from the newly restored walled gardens.


A fully narrated film entitled "The Philiphaugh Salmon" showing twenty minutes worth of the best, recorded images from the salmon viewing centre, will be available to purchase from the Waterwheel Restaurant.
 

The species included are salmon, trout, grayling, eel, perch, a brief view of an otter knocking the camera and a goosander swimming underwater below the cauld.
 

All proceeds will be used towards the upkeep of the centre, for the purchase of equipment, cameras and towards maintaining the facilities. The DVD is priced at £7.
