Queen Elizabeth gives eBay the royal treatment - June 12, 2002

In this, the 50th anniversary year of Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II's reign on the throne, she has made the gracious offer of a 7-day vacation stay for up to 12 people in her world famous Alltnaguibhsaich Lodge-a vacation cottage on the beautiful grounds of the historic Balmoral Estate. Proceeds from the sale will benefit the NFL Alumni "Caring for Kids" charity.

An oasis of seclusion, the fully equipped cottage features a sitting room and study with open fires, a drawing room, dining room, 9 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a playroom and kitchen. The winning eBay bidder of this ultimate fantasy vacation will also have the opportunity to explore the moors, forests and miles of trails located on the massive 55,000 acre manor as well as the ruins, castles, quaint stone villages and distilleries that lie in the highlands of the local mountains.

Ride and tour the grounds on one of the Queen's ponies, picnic in the sunken gardens-covering some three acres, read under a tree by Queen Victoria's garden house or stroll the banks of the River Dee and enjoy the finest fishing Scotland has to offer.
