Nice accom wtd – Scotland

Am coming back to the Homeland in a few weeks to get hitched, as part of this would like to escape for a couple of days with the new wife. Anyone got suggestions/links to nice holiday accom – just a couple of nights , somewhere Ft Williamish could work for a sort of vaguely honeymoon kind of thing. Basically we’re outdoors people so would be out and about most of the time in the cold but a nice cottage or hotel or something could be a nice surprise !

Try Croft dhu in Newtonmore. Cosy and well equipped. Under new management whom I don’t know mountains (1 Munro) out the back so you can walk from the Croft.

The Old Pines, Ft William… special for us….

Here – http://www.bedandbreakfast-directory.co.uk/uploads/estate/hotels/hotels43239.htm ** If you like dogs – it’s VERY small B&B, lovely people but they did let dogs around at brekkie etc etc

Also suggest Plockton – cracking scenery etc. The Manse – http://www.tripadvisor.in/ShowUserReviews-g319815-d629131-r7960191-The_Manse-Plockton_Ross_and_Cromarty_Scottish_Highlands_Scotland.html

On balance I’d do manse – better scenery, some nice local pubs, can go otter spotting etc at Kyle of Lochalsh – drive to Skye – Quirang etc etc awesome scenery.

Also try Drimsynie Estates in Lochgoilhead, my old stomping ground and packed with A frame chalets and pubs. reasonable local trails too including a nice loop round the loch and over to Ardgarten. weather should be dreadful until about mid may but what can you do?

sh@g – its my honeymoon FFS !!!
Idea is – somewhere in the middle of nowhere, pub, nothing else to do, sh1t weather == afternoon ‘naps’ 😉

🙄 Aah yeah sorry ’bout that, well the goil should be fine for the above itinery. be warned I flew back for Xmas and after 2 weeks was convinced I’m now definately a Kiwi, just lost the old magic, wife would go back tomorrow though!!

Yeah i’ve been here 12yrs and I am definitely converted to Kiwism…

would highly recommend:

My mother. http://www.balmillig.co.uk near Loch Lomond, Good for a stop on the way up if you are heading north/south.
Unsurpassed outdoor knowledge and breakfast.
