A TRAVELLING highland holiday home has been created in collaboration between Argyll Holidays and artist Steven Brown.
The McCooravan, a caravan which showcases Brown’s signature highland cow motif, will be displayed at the Royal Highland Show.
The caravan, which features a colourful painting of Brown’s “McCoo”, will be showcased at the show next week (Thursday 21 to Sunday 24 June).
It will then take up permanent residence at Argyll Holiday’s Drimsynie Estate Holiday Village, where holiday makers will be “able to enjoy a Scottish break in style”.
Lisa Allan Downie, marketing manager at Argyll Holidays, said: “Steven Brown’s signature McCoo is recognised around the world and we’re a huge fan of his work.
“Beyond canvases and prints, the famous cow now emblazons everything from cushions and duvet sets to tea towels and china mugs, and we’re very proud to have the first ever McCooravan!”
Holiday-makers can stay in the McCooravan later this year.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
