The final part of our road trip landed us literally, at the end of the road. John O'Groats is the most Northernly inhabited place in the UK/Scotland and we stayed there for our two last nights before returning to London. LAIRG We drove up to John O'Groats from our little cottage just outside Inverness, stopping … Continue reading Scottish Road Trip on a Budget| Part 3 | John O’Groats
Following on from the last post, in which we travelled from London to Edinburgh, then up to Inverness - at this point in the journey we were staying just outside Inverness at Balnagown Estates. We stayed there for two nights, using it as a base to explore Scotland and honestly, it was the best decision … Continue reading Scottish Road Trip on a Budget | Part 2 | Glencoe and Glenfinnan Viaduct
A few years back my parents and I undertook a mammoth road trip around Scotland - it was incredible, but looking back we endeavoured to take in a bit too much in the time we had, meaning we didn't get to spend much time in each place. So this time, when my boyfriend and I … Continue reading Scottish Road Trip on a Budget | Part 1 | Edinburgh to Inverness
This year has been a bit of a mad one, what with moving to the other side of the world and all. As well as that, I somehow managed to fit in a bunch of other trips, so these are my highlights. Video: https://youtu.be/bfJJgxSydP4 New York This was an absolute dream trip with my mum. … Continue reading 2018 TRAVEL HIGHLIGHTS
Usually I love the train journey up to Edinburgh - its about 5.5 hours long but it gives me time to write, read and watch tv in comfortable, warm seats. Usually moments when I get to do these things are slotted in in between stressful ones and are therefore very rarely dedicated just to this; … Continue reading CHIHUAHUA CAFE | EDINBURGH | WEEKEND WANDERING
Happy New Year ('s Eve)! We've already talked about the highs and the lows in the last couple of days, so I thought today might be a good day to show you via our brand new YouTube channel. It truly has been an amazing year in travel for me - road tripping Croatia and Scotland, city … Continue reading CHEERS 2015
After yesterday's post you might be wondering if pessimism has got the better of us. Thankfully, it's quite the opposite; 2015 has been pretty damn good to our little circle. To prove it we got together to discuss the BEST moments in our 2015 travels: Hamilton When I was in a small village in the Austrian alps, … Continue reading BEST TRAVEL MOMENTS 2015
Our two final nights were spent in the unique and charming city of Edinburgh. I'd always wanted to go and in all honesty had no idea how to go about planning our time there. The rest of our road trip in Scotland was mostly spent in rural areas, so I knew a city would … Continue reading END OF THE ROAD | EDINBURGH | SCOTTISH ROAD TRIP
In an earlier blog post, I mentioned my bucket list... Our time at John O'Groats managed to tick off two wishes. Not bad going for a town with a population of only about 300. The drive from Skye was a looonggg one. I think it took about 7/8 hours? There is a slightly shorter route, … Continue reading NORTHERN LIGHTS | JOHN O’GROATS | SCOTTISH ROAD TRIP
We woke up in Invergarry to yet another beautiful day. I haven't actually mentioned it, but my god we were lucky with the weather. The hike at Glen Nevis was another day of clear blue skies and bright sunshine, and after what we'd been repeatedly told, ("It always rains in Fort William") we figured it … Continue reading FAIRY POOLS | ISLE OF SKYE | SCOTTISH ROAD TRIP
