Shieldaig

We survived an incredibly stormy night in Scourie which necessitated Mr Q braving the elements in the middle of the night to move us to a less exposed place. His glasses were blown away in the gale! It's really difficult looking for glasses without glasses on in a gale and torrential rain! With a family effort we managed to retrieve them!

Weather was much improved by morning and we headed to Ullapool where it was positively balmy! Lunch at 'The Ceilidh Place' (I'd recommend it highly) and after a wander around we drove to Shieldaig via Gairloch. We passed through some pretty impressive countryside enroute.

We pitched up on some crofting ground which is set aside for campers (honesty box) and shared with sheep!

Mr Q and I went out for a drink to the local hostelry while Semi-Q did some studying. Everyone was very friendly - we will be back here!
