    Loch Lomond

    July 15, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ 🌧 16 °C

    We woke up this morning in our airbnb overlooking the shores of the beautiful Loch Lomond. With a typically rainy Scottish welcome, we drove down the Ayrshire coast to Culzean castle, ancestral home to the Kennedys. Incredible architecture and a view of the coast, the castle also boasts the largest collection of used muskets in the UK, mostly fired in the Napoleonic war. 

    In addition to the coast the castle had lovely grounds to explore, housing deer as well as some super impressive 16 point stags! Majestic without even trying.

    Heading back north lunched at the Smoking Goat in Ayr, finishing our day with a relaxing hot tub session and a 10pm sunset

  • Stirling

    July 16, 2023 in Scotland ⋅ 🌬 17 °C

    As we waited our morning coffee we got to witness some local Highland games in action! Some sort of swimming activity in the loch accompanied by some bagpipes.

    We had a great tour of Stirling castle by a guide with a brilliant accent. The castle looks over the most famous Scottish battlegrounds, accompanied with reminders of what you can cannot trust from Braveheart.Read more
