It’s official! We joined the North Coast 500 today at Loch Carron and experienced very narrow single track roads, grumpy locals (darn tourists driving oversized motor homes on my lanes….) and incredible scenery. 24 miles of a single track road heading up and over mountains, through highland bogs and down through scenic glens is what the NC500 is all about.

Breathtaking scenery and our final stop for the night is tiny seaside Gairloch. Our caravan site is right on the hillside overlooking the sea inlet. We’ve just sat watching the stars come out in the still and peaceful night.

Next stop will be Ullapool. 67 miles away and more single track roads methinks. Mr Foggs turn to drive this time. And these are the A roads. Wait till we try a B road.
