We left Scotland in the pouring rain and it didn’t stop until we hit the Lake District. Thank goodness we didn’t have weather like that for the last two weeks. We stopped overnight at Ellers Farm a Caravan & Motorhome CL site in the village of Caton near Lancaster which is a lovely spot and a … More Carrbridge to Home
Our first stop was only a few miles down the road at Rogie Falls. You could stop overnight in the car park but this place is on the tourist bus route, we saw two in the time we were there so it is a busy car park. The falls are a good place to see … More Silverbridge Picnic Area to Carrbridge
The majority of today was spent driving very scenic single track roads. To start the day we took the C1082 round the headland via Fearnmore to Applecross. This was a beautiful drive and the weather kept dry for us so we were able to appreciate the views. We stopped at Applecross for refreshments and a … More Glas Leitre parking area in Beinn Eighe Nature Reserve to Silverbridge Picnic Area on A835 at the foot of Ben Wyvis

If you do have plenty of time the price at the campsite reduces for additional nights to £7. We even had … More Mellon Udrigle to Glas Leitre parking area in Beinn Eighe Nature Reserve
We were not as alone as we thought last night in our camping spot. When I took Finn for his early morning walk there was a huge stag in the bracken just up from the camper as well as about 30 doe deer. They all ran when we walked towards them apart from the stag … More Inchnadamph to Mellon Udrigle
The winds continued all through the night apparently, according to Andy. I must admit after a few glasses of wine I slept right through them. They were still strong when we set off in the sunshine along the A838 and then the A894 towards Scourie. Our aim was to walk to Britain’s highest waterfall, Eas … More Durness to Inchnadamph
The winds had picked up over night and there was a bit of rain as we were packing up to go in the morning. Luckily with the strong winds it soon blew over. The scenery we saw yesterday continued as we drove to Durness along the coast road, stopping for several picture opportunities, lunch and … More Strathy Bay to Durness
