Achateilasaig House


This was a lovely holiday cottage, in a secluded bay between Arisaig and Morar .. Much recommended. To book it, contact the owner nicklaw1@hotmail.com

Loch Nevis

The weather quite rapidly deteriorated .. After a short paddle from Glenuig Inn to camp at Invermoidart, we headed north to Morar. To reduce the exposure we decided to portage into Loch Morar, and paddle up to Tarbet, then portage over into Loch Nevis. It was a blustery and wet few days, with a rather scraggy campsite towards the tip of Loch Nevis
 
Unfortunately in the change of plan we'd skipped the restocking in the coop in Mallaig, so by the time we could paddle out to Inverie we were getting a bit short of food ... But luckily we'd caught a few mackerel at Tarbert.

Scotland 2017

This year, unusually, we decided to brave the midges and go to scotland in July... do a bit of sea kayaking, the spend a week in a cottage introducing the grandchildren to the joys of scotland.

As we arrived at Glenuig, with our fairly new novacraft canoe on the roof, and the Feathercraft K2 sea kayak inside the car, the view over to the small isles was glorious
