YouTube videos of beautiful places

Some random couple's holiday video visiting most of the places we went on the Ardnamurchan, although there is loads more.



The singing sands is a magical place on the peninsula. It's accessed only by foot, with a three mile walk through woodland from a car park. We went for a swim here with the dog last summer. The water is crystal clear but bloody cold until you get used to it. The walk there and back is really good too but I got bitten by huge horseflies. The critters drew blood.

We go to Glencoe Ginny, I’m sure you’ll have a great trip mate, I’ve been to Ardnamurchan, we saw the lighthouse there, it was a lovely day, it was a long day though, we came back via Glenfinnan and Fort William. It must be fantastic in the camper, that’s how I’d like to travel Scotland mate.

We've driven through Glencoe a couple of times with stops to take it all in. There is a very definite atmosphere about the place, but we found it a bit too busy for our liking and didn't stay for any length of time. We have scope to go up there out of season now and will explore more when it's less busy.

Did you see the crazy border collie's at the lighthouse, barking at the sea? They are a fixture there apparently. They follow visitors down to the bottom of the rocks and back up again. When at the bottom, they bark at the waves.

I tend to go to Glencoe during the winter months Ginny (usually around November) when snow is on the tops, going that time of year you tend to miss all the visitors, it’s so atmospheric I agree, I’ve camped in the lost valley on my own before and that was such an experience, it’s were all the cattle were hidden during the Glencoe massacre (in 1692)

When we were at Ardnamurchan there was nobody there as it was a full on winters day and quite late on, we visited a place called Strontian I don’t know if you have been there? We usually go across on the Corran ferry, have you been on that ? It’s between Glencoe and Fort William (a82) it’s only a short crossing but well worth it for the views.

A round trip I made a few years back when my son was living in Revelstoke BC, We had tickets to fly there again for last summer but covid put paid to that, Scotland is stunning and obviously a lot more accessible for us but the Canadian Rockies are simply breathtaking

I can think of a lot worse places to live.

That was one of the best views I seen of Cleethorpes. Nelc should use it as a promo. Thank you for sharing it.

Yeah, been on the Corran ferry twice and visited Strontian twice also. Went to the Ariundle oak woodlands just out of town. They are actually classed as rainforest and one of my favourite places to visit. Very old and atmospheric.

This was a cracking little ferry we stumbled across a few years back. The last ferry of it's kind in the world.

Was fortunate enough to spend a few days walking round here in 2019, absolutely unreal.

Did this trip a good few years ago. The moment you reach the edge of the canyon and go from 100's feet off the ground to 1000's in an instant, is some experience. Truly one of the wonders of the world.




Wouldn't mind going back one day and doing this.

This is a trip that lives long in the memory. Out to the Treshnish Isles to see the seabird colonies, especially the comical puffins, who have no fear of humans at all and you can get really close to them. Then onto Staffa to see Fingals Cave, It was a beautiful sunny day and thoroughly recommended if you are up that way.
