Thanks for the tip about Carbisdale Castle...sounds really nice

Kim... you really should go to Landmark, only we only had a couple of hours we really enjoyed it.

We're going to go back up at the beginning of the season next year (round about march) and get season tickets. It's only about another £10 pp and you can get in from March to December or something like that. Seems like it's well worth the extra £10 pp, especially if you can go at least 2-3 times a year. That's why we're going to go camping the next time as hotels can be quite expensive... probably because of the tourists

Pauline, if you get the chance you really should take a drive up north. Try avoiding the A9 if you can as it's just all motorway driving (without the motorway lol) I had did this route before but it was over 20 years ago when I stayed in Glasgow. You'd be surprised what's on 'our' doorstep

Hiya Sheena

We did cross over the Ballachulish Bridge...you stay in a beautiful part of our country

We didn't stop here though as we were already pushing it for time, maybe the next time we'll stop by and take some pics. Loch Linnhe is superb!

Great photos, we forget what's on our doorstep! Landmark has really changed since we were last there - have a favourite photo of DS and his best friend there when they were about 4! Hope Scott's finger is ok.
