Ardival Harps

Ardival Harps is a small business situated near the Victorian village of Strathpeffer. The firm specialise in Historical Scottish Harps and modern Clarsachs made from local timber, cut and kiln dried by a local hardwood sawmill. Proper seasoning ensures that the harps may be used in modern centrally-heated conditions. The woods used are beech, birch, lime and sycamore.

Ardival Harps also run holiday courses for beginners and players. Structured four-day courses offer an opportunity to combine a holiday in the Highlands with a chance to hear and learn different types of harps.
