Deep in the heart of the Highlands, on the shores of the mighty Loch Lachart, you'll find Glen Lachart - the sleepy Scottish village whose everyday antics once drew the attention of what seemed at the time like the entire world! 

When we first launched our wee community website back in 1999 we didn't know what to expect, but we didn't in all honesty expect very much.  Within weeks, however, it was clear our unique way of life appealed to a lot of people, and we soon found ourselves on radio, television, and in the newspapers and it wasn't long before there were more tourists than locals walking the village street!

To this day we have no idea how it all happened.

Nevertheless, for about the ninth time in just two years, we're back with an entirely new web incarnation, ready to do it all again!

Those of you who visited the previous versions of Glen Lachart will find much of what was here before still remains.  We are still the only site on the internet to boast news provided by the Glen Lachart Star, and continue to play host to features written by some of the more literate of the village's 67 residents.

Hopefully you will also find an improvement in the navigation structure, with the countless "sub-sites" of previous incarnations having been replaced by a single main site.  As the site develops we will also be adding a shop and various other goodies which I won't yet reveal!

One of the most important parts of the old site was the forums, though sadly all the content of these has been lost in the mists of time.  However, I'm happy to say we have an entirely new forum, and I look forward to contributing towards it and helping build it back up to the heights it reached before.

Thank you for visiting Glen Lachart Online - Your Local Highland Hideaway!  I hope you join in the fun.
