“Margaret has undertaken significant research into the social and architectural history of our building, Dunoon Burgh Hall, and has generously donated this research for use in our newspaper Dunoon Chronicles and for our website. The research has informed heritage projects in schools where she has worked closely with teachers to ensure the learning is embedded into the curriculum. Margaret has also trained our volunteers into being heritage tour guides for our visitors, and some of the stories are now well known throughout the town! Margaret has been an invaluable resource for our organisation.”

— Jenny Hunter, Creative Arts and Education Manager, Dunoon Burgh Hall Trust

“We’ve been on several European tours, and Margaret was by far the best guide we’ve had. During our Road Scholar tour of Scotland, not only did she provide fascinating lectures on history, culture, and politics, but as our tour progressed, she tailored her offerings in response to the group’s diverse interests.”

— Neil Glickman and Steven Riel, Natick, MA

“A group of friends had decided on a Road Scholar trip to Scotland and I joined them. Since this was my first trip with the organization, I had no idea what to expect of our guide. Margaret Hubbard was knowledgeable and dynamic.

Most impressive was her broad background and obvious love of her native country. Our Road Scholar trip was not merely a sightseeing expedition. Some guides have very focused areas of specialization; but Margaret specialises in all things Scottish. She brought the massacre at Glencoe and the battle at Culloden vividly to life.”
