"Spud came to my work place, The Craigellachie Hotel, to pipe for a large group of Portugese guests as part of a traditional Scottish dinner and they loved it!! They all asked about him the following morning and we spoke about how i had known him for several years, through other events and family, and he was the best in the industry. He never fails to bring a crowd together (even when there are language barriers!) and it’s always a pleasure having him and listening to him do what he does best! Safe to say we’ll be seeing him again soon! X"

"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for yesterday. The pipes filled the crematorium and helped make the day more bearable. You were very professional, easy to deal with, and ticked every box and more . Again thank you ."

"With only two days notice Patrick fulfilled my expectations on what was a very emotional and sad day. Communication in emails between us was very good and timely and nothing was too much trouble. He arrived well in advance of the funeral to give him time to warm up the pipes and all those arriving were very appreciative. The deceased, my partner was from Scotland. He loved the bagpipes and would have been mightily impressed. My original Piper, sadly, was suddenly taken ill and as an organisation you certainly lived up to your name of 'Last minute musicians.' At a very anxious time, with constant updates, you made the whole booking process very easy. Thank you. I would highly recommend you. "

"George was absolutely fantastic after we were let down by our previous piper and I couldn't recommend Arkleston Piping enough! James (our Piper on the day) was professional, friendly and bloody good on those pipes! The boys are still raving about being piped into the venue to The Gael and our guests thoroughly enjoyed every minute of his playing. Thanks so much for helping to make our day so very special."

"I just wanted to give you a quick message to say that the funeral went very well yesterday, and Bob's playing was beautiful. He was in full regalia, and did Dad proud. Unfortunately, I didn't see him at the end of the service, but I messaged him to say how pleased we were - he really did make the day special. Many thanks to you too, your quick responses were fantastic, and really appreciated."

"Highly recommend Chris. He was very professional. Played what we wanted. And nothing was a problem. Very talented musician. He piped for our wedding and played the piano during our meal. Honestly can't recommend Chris enough."

"I came to LMM with a bit of a whacky idea of hosting a bagpipe pub crawl for Burns Night, and was suggested Robin as our piper. We got so much more that we could have possibly asked for, he absolutely made the evening and all our guests were SO impressed. One gentleman even said that Robin was the best he'd ever seen - and he was a piper himself! Robin was fantastic at supporting and communicating before the event, it was easy to see how invested he really was in pulling this all off. On the night he provided such an incredible experience with his boundless energy and passion, and he truly led the evening - which, as an English Norfolk-born girl running a Burns event for the first time, I was so pleased with! Thank you a million times over for such a fun experience Robin, and we can't wait to have you back next year."

"We hired Cameron to play at my sister's funeral at All Saints Church in Slingsby, Cameron turned up early in full regalia, piped my sister into the church to Flowers of the Forest, piped her out of the church to Highland Cathedral and finally piped the hearse for first 100 yards away to When the Battle is Over, can't praise Cameron enough, quite outstanding!"
