We stopped several times on the loch ness trail to take pictures until we arrive at Drumnadrochit, a village on the western shore of Loch Ness that is supposedly home to the Loch Ness Monster. The town is beautiful, with cafes, restaurants, hotels and shops based on the Loch Ness Monster. The Nessieland centre celebrates the legendary beast with exhibits […]
On our way to Loch Ness, we passed beautiful towns, we could stop in one town and take pictures. The town is called MacDuff and is a fishing town. We passed another amazing town but we couldn’t stop to take pictures, a pity as that town was amazing with an aqueduct at the beach! We keep going and we saw […]
Fraserburgh is a fishing town in the more North point of Scotland in the North Sea where the Museum of the lighthouses is. In the town, there are 3 lighthouses. We stayed 2 days in the Fraserburgh Caravan Park, just in front of the sea, with the beach on one side and the harbour on the other and the town […]
We arrived in Scotland and passed one night in Barry Campsite between two towns and next to a golf club. The camping is really isolated, near 40 minutes walking to the nearest town. The facilities are ok, with electricity and empty waters etc but you need a code to access the bathrooms and showers and the camping is not very […]
The Lake District is famous for its lakes, forests and mountains, and its associations with William Wordsworth and other Lake poets. The Lake District National Park was established in 1951 and covers an area of 2,362 square kilometres. We stayed at the Waterside House Campsite next to the lake with amazing views. The facilities are good but too far from […]

We decided to go to Ingleton to see the Ingleton Waterfalls Trail. We parked in the municipal parking next to the tourist office where we […]
It has been Summer weather in England so we have enjoyed going to see rural pubs and places with the convertible car of Ben’s mum and seeing friends. Friday was the hottest day in the UK, up to 33 degrees! And we went to see Coombe Abbey near Coventry. During the 12th century, the building was known as the Abbey […]
We went to see Bidford-on-Avon, a very nice town next to the Avon river with a Roman road passing through. By the way, in England, the top speed limit signs you will see are 50 o 60 but they are in miles/hour not in Km/h, so you see cars going really slow because they think the speed limit is 50 […]
Last Saturday we went to Alcester a market town of Roman origin known for its High Street, with the Town Hall built between 1618 and 1641 on one end and St Nicholas’s Church at the other end of the High Street. The clock on St Nicholas’s Church is in an unusual position on the southwest corner of the 14th-century tower […]
