Could be up for this V.
Usually the weather can be brill at the end of May.
V, have you ever been to Applecross.
Where are you thinking of doing yer first night stop.
BTW you'll do that trip in a day no probs, even stopping for plenty of sightseeing and pics,,,,,,,,,,I don't think you'll need to go through one set of traffic lights once yer out Inverness.
and on the way back south ye can mibbe get the Lecht and Glenshee sections done seeing as ye missed it this year Happy tae be yer guide for that if need be.
Could well be interested in this Mike as I think a European jaunt is going to be out of the equation for me next summer cos our eldest daughter is getting married and I'll be skint.
By the time you factor in b&b, meals, fuel etc...Scotland is a bit more expensive than Spain.
Oh aye that right...whit aboot the mental ferry cost jist gettin tae Espania...nae exactly cheap nor is the beer swilled an grub on board either! Nae tae mention the lost days in transit.
The hotels cost are no much different either.
This means you guys further south would need to consider making a start a day earlier possibly?
