hey everyone... it's been a while (again), hope you all are well. I've just had my lovely friend Carey here from Alaska and I've been taking her all around the highlands and islands and cities and things for a week or so. I've seen so many beautiful places and things that I can't believe I've never noticed before so, have any of you got favourite beautiful/peaceful/generally great spots in Scotland? if so, where? blessed be
Isle of Lewis, Outer Hebrides Amazing place, + so much history there. There must be around 30 ancient sites like stone cirlces and such like...
Aye Meng, it does... specially when you live here, lol... i feel bad for tourists limited to doing touristy things though.... i admit, i was trying to show off 'real glasgow' and 'real scotland' to Carey though... makes for a waay better time and much better stories blessed be
I havent been myself.,..going to faslane sometime though Ime sure i once heard Moan mention a place up there that he loves though... *shouts* Giiles *screams* Giiiiiiiiiles
Only ever been to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Faslane Peace Camp. See lots from the train though...its a very beautiful place.
Only been to Glasgow and Inverness including the Loch Ness area. Definitely has to be the latter for me
Hi there everyone(nervous whimper),i haven't posted on the UK forums yet and i saw this....so anyway i'm moving to north-east scotland in the next 3/4 months although i should be going there for a week somewhere near wick in the first week of august. Anyone live there? or been there? tell me about it please! peace ben

my prents took us to scotland every year since i was 5 for hoildays. we would always rent a house in the highlands for 2weeks. there are so many places in scotalnd that i've been yet i dont even know the name. i'll see where i can remember the names of, torbermory- spent many hoildays here, especially cus my dads a malt lover & we've visited every distillery in scotland! spent many holidays in dufftown, beautiful place, again thats cus my dad goes on the distillery tours. i've also been to oban, lockaline, fort william, fort augusta, perth, applecross, ullapool to name a few. gairloch- my most favourite place in scotland. we went there nearly every year untill the house we rented got sold. the last place we went was isle of mull, we went there at christmas, it was beautiful. i've been to isle if skye, when the ferrys were still running, we have pictures of the skye bridge being built over about 3 years i think, we came across a huge waterfall there (cant remeber the name, not been to skye for about 10 years), & everytime we've been to skye we have visited the waterfall. we would all climb up to the top & cross it, its absolutley magical, will defonatlay be taking my children to scotland for hoildays.
Hey Torz if you've been to Ullapool and Applecross then you have waltzed straight past my front door. It's on the only road you can take to both of those places. It's in the most beautiful area in the world a little place called Tore. But hey next time I'll wave to you at the roundabout!!! lol Ben
i probably have many a time, we go to scotland every year & my dad always takes us to applecross without fail, next time i'll have to stop & say hi. isnt all of the highlands just the most beautiful place in the world?!
Oh dear you've never been? Eh? I would say Applecross is one of the most beautiful parts but anywhere North of Inverness and you're in dreamland! You'lll love it! Drop in!! Tore, just ask for Ben even the pheasants know where I live!!! Ben
