A little closer to home - Inverness and Beauly
... despite huge tourist signs at either end of Cawdor township we could not find a sign in Cawdor that would direct us to the castle. Very annoying. This area close to Culloden which has great local significance being the site of the last great battles of independence from the English. Consoled ourselves with a visit to a local cheese factory where we taste tested a number of cheeses and chutneys. Made a number of cheese purchases. ...
A trek across the Highlands to the Isle of Skye
... as well as ascending and descending hills - keeps speed down to less than an average of 100km/hr. Later in the morning the road deteriorates to one lane with many passing bays. Makes for interesting but demanding driving as there are vehicles heading the opposite direction at regular intervals. Made a number of photo stops as there are lots of pretty outlooks and dramatic scenes in this isolated region. Note many places starting with 'Inver' and 'Kin' ...
The Highlands

After Loch Ness, we had the long drive back to Edinburgh. By now it was about 430 and we were due back by 8. There were a few stops here and there, but at this point the sun was setting and I was more engulfed in the Scottish History our tour guide Allen was telling us. He was fantastic, not only was he our driver, he told us crazy stories along the way and his mum even met up with us in the highlands and gave us shortbread (which is delicious in Scotland ...
Jimmy's coastal walk : Day 35
... Passing through the hamlet of Portgower I saw a duck out on the road, holding up the traffic in both directions. It eventually waddled back up on to the pavement but it was clearly not going to be hurried. I was soon in Helmsdale where I soon found a B&B for the night. The restaurant I chose for the evening was La Mirage. Its website indicates a number of famous patrons and claims an"unusual ...
Jimmy's coastal walk : day 34
... reaching the village at 6.30pm.
This was my longest walk so far, 26.7 miles, and in a pair of relatively new shoes my feet were complaining as evidenced by several blisters.
I was glad not to have to travel elsewhere to find a bed for the night, nor very far for an evening meal. The local restaurant was surprisingly busy.

“ The Haunting and the haunted ”
Reviewed Nov 2, 2011
A castle dating back from the 12th century cannot be anything than interesting and the stay there exciting. I did have a nice time been shown around the place and its secrets (escape tunnel, dungeons, secret stairway leading to the top of the tower, and a hidden passage to a small arch bridge leading to the woods and the family cemetery) by the gentle night receptionist, and the girls at the Green Lady bar (named so from the local ghost) were kind enough to furnish me with printed material on the ghost stories that have been reported in the castle. The maintenance appears to be not quite adequate though, apparently there were problems with water heating (a painfull way to find out the meaning of 'Scottish shower'), but that was nothing in comparison to what my fellow travellers had to deal with, as my friend sadly sustained a head injury while struggling with a cold shower himself, which could end really bad due to a missing lever that left a long screw exposed as a potential hazzard, and on top of that, while being moved to another room, one of his suitcases was broken by the young porter... At least, as a compensation, he hadn't been charged for the room, but in the end he felt kind of relieved and rather lucky to leave the place alive and not having to remain there forever, haunting the castle himself...
