Scotland Tour – Day 2

We left Hamilton and continued north to Strathpeffer.

We passed through a lot of rain.

In Strathpeffer we met up with friends Linda and Mike, at the Railway Cafe. The station has been closed for many years, but the line is being used as a walk/cycle track.

Strathpeffer was a popular Victorian spa town.

After lunch we continued our journey.

We arrived at the Caledonian Hotel, Ullapool.

After a walk around the harbour we had fish and chips for tea.

More pics tomorrow.

Scotland Tour – Day 1

Day One

We set off this morning to travel the 340 miles north on the M6 from Dursley to Hamilton, just south of Glasgow.

We stopped for a picnic at Tebay services, one of the ‘Farm Shop’ services, like the Gloucester ones, which are run by the Westmoreland Group.
We drove through the Yorkshire Dales
and on into Scotland.
The weather changed – strong winds and heavy rain are forecast!

Tomorrow we drive past Inverness to Ullapool, meeting up with some friends for lunch on the way.

Scotland Holiday 2020!

Many months ago we booked a holiday to Scotland, stopping off at the Shetland Isles. We have been luckier than most this year as we managed to have a trip to India just before Lockdown. Our long weekend in the Isle of Man was cancelled in May, but we have kept our fingers crossed that the Scottish trip will go ahead. All looks good so far. So, hopefully, on August 20th we will be off up north!

I will post each day, as I did from India. The posts may not be so exotic but I’m sure there will be some amazing scenery to share with you.

This is our route

Looking forward to sharing my photos with you.

Stay safe
