I don't think that's entirely fair to be honest. It's not so far that it can't be comfortably done by car in a reasonable amount of time. And the competitors won't be doing the driving, so can relax on the journey.
There's already a bias towards hosting competitions in the central belt (logically I might add). But it might be nice to have the occasional event elsewhere, so that others from the North (such as Aberdeen) don't have to always do loads of driving to enjoy Chess competitions. It seems fair to me, and a stunning venue too. 8)
