    Journey to Wick

    December 30, 2024 in Scotland ⋅ ☁️ 2 °C

    A bit of a wet journey but a stop off in Alness to walk up to Fryish Monument was worth it. A steep snowy 3km walk bought us up to the gorgeous monument with spectators views. We were rewarded a 40 minute drive late with a hot chocolate made with real chocolate, drizzled with milk and white chocolate served with 4 handmade chocolates...yes this was lunch!! Then the journey continued to Wick to check in our glamping pod. Will take photos in the sun tomorrowRead more

  • A walk about town

    December 31, 2024 in Scotland ⋅ 🌧 8 °C

    As we had an Amber weather warning we thought it best to stay local. We had beautiful weather! A little drizzle but nothing drastic. However had a beautiful walk along the coast. We also visited the world's smallest street at 6ft 9inches. Ebenezer place.Read more
