Re: Highlands & islands

ding-dang-dhu, your van looks just like our 'Doris'. Anyway, thought I would share some of my highlands and islands photos - started uploading some just now. http://www.flickr.com//photos/44309024@N03/sets/72157630584711006/show/ Fantastic photos!

Re: Highlands & islands

Well that's the first leg of the ferry booked - from Ullapool to Stornoway 10.25am on Monday 6 August. We're trying to book a trip out to St Kilda with SeaHarris - we'll be in the area for 5-6 days so hopefully it will be fit to go on one of them. Hoping to meet up with Little Miss Sunshine in Harri...

Re: Highlands & islands

Anyone else on the same trail at the same time? PM me your mobile number - I'm sure we could set up an 80-90 meet!

Re: Highlands & islands

Hi Martin. Plan so far is that we are staying at Bamburgh (3 Aug); Loch Tay (4 August); Port A Bhaig near Ullapool (5 August, and possibly 6th). Over to Stornoway from Ullapool and then about 10-12 nights just bimbling around Harris, Lewis, Skye, Berneray, North Uist, South Uist, Barra and back to O...

Re: s w coastal walk cornwall

There's a really nice Camping & Caravanning Club site at Sennen - excellent facilities as you would expect. There are also a couple of other sites just off the A30 before Sennen and although I haven't tried them, they look nice. Hope this helps

Wild camping near Aviemore/Cairngorms

OK - so if we can't camp near North Berwick (stuff em!) anyone any ideas for the Cairngorms/Aviemore region? Cheers

Re: Wild camping near North Berwick

Cheers for that Dave. Bloody typical! Ah well, back to the drawing board. As the comments from the motor homers - don't think I want to go there any more now anyway. I'll spend my money elsewhere!

Why are these places so short sighted! Shame

Re: Switzerland - Paris (somewhere nice halfway?

Fabulous campsite just outside Interlaken - Camping du Lac at Iseltwald. On the way back, we stopped at Lac du der Chantecoq near St Dizier. There is a campsite but also plenty of wild camping there too. Lovely beach which your 2 year old would love, and a shallow lake to paddle/swim in. Have a good...

Re: Troyes camping

Lac du Der Chantecoq at St Dizier - bit north of Troyes but as well as a reasonable campsite, it is an aire on the side of the lake - loads of room, mostly hard standing and free. You can swim in the lake (there is a man made beach) and cycle round it too. Nice place

Re: Highlands & islands

Just thinking - which is the best ferry route to take and the best ticket to get? There seem to be a selection of Hopscotch tickets but does anyone know if there is an Island hopper which gives you x number of ferry trips and you can please yourself as far as the route goes?

Re: Highlands & islands

Wow - thanks everyone! I think I'm almost persuaded! Will maybe pm a few of you for more details once we've worked out a route etc.

Happy camping!
