Matta Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Great photos - it's a fantastic road to drive in the Westie. That's the route we take on the way to Applecross in June. Can't wait! Matt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottish Westy Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Buttercup, thats a long drive from Scarborough but it will be well worth it. XTRTurbo, not sure what you mean by save some for the mag, but you are more than welcome to help yourself to any I have posted. Matt, even though Im not attending the Applecross weekend I hope to tag along for a while, lets hope Glencoe is blessed with sunshine then too.

Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 We try and use pictures that haven't previously been posted on-line etc for the magazine; it's just to try and keep it fresh and new for both those members that use the Boardroom and those that don't.

Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Hi Scottish Westy. I normally stop off at Glencoe on my way to Durness as I love it around Loch Eriboll. Hoping to do Glencoe, Durness, John O Groats and then go back to Durness before crossing across country through all the forests and staying at Strathpeffer.

Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 At last, some pictures of a Westfield in Scotland. I go into the English and Welsh mountains with my car, I post the pictures and say how lovely it all looks but Scotland is in a different league. It is nice to see some proper big mountains as a backdrop. Thanks for posting, Julie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Long time since I was up there camping , breathtaking scenery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuitarmanUK Posted April 7, 2015 Share Posted April 7, 2015 Looks fab. I will be up there weekend after next with 14 other 7 style cars (Robin Hoods, Zeros, MK, Stylus, Roadrunner SR2) starting in Helensburgh then to Skye, up to Inverness and finish in Dunfermline. With the trip up from Gloucester it will be about 1500 miles in 5 days. Really looking forward to it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fatbaldbloke Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 We stop off at the Clachaig Inn at Glencoe on our way to the Outer Hebrides for golf (Askernish, the best course in the world!). Superb beer, superb selection of whiskies and breakfast to die for. Taking the A45 for the first time next month, can't wait for the drive through the highlands and on to Skye.

Onliest Smeg David Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Agree FBB, Clachaig Inn just east of Glencoe village definitely worth a stopover :) I've spent many a night in there after a day in the mountains.... and many a day when weathers been too bad for mountaineering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to meet others and their kits :-) We are travelling up from Nottingham area on Saturday 18th and I suppose will get to Helensburgh around 6.00pm ish. We are all booked in to the the Travelodge on the seafront (West Clyde St). We go off the next morning (probably around 9.00am but this is a guess) heading for Skye. This is the proposed route https://goo.gl/maps/jcrO3 and I am sure you would be very welcome to join us for some of the route. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
