The cottage we rented is terrific. An old converted cow barn in the boonies of the Cairngorm Mountains. Inside it's warm, modern and beautifully appointed. Outside it's currently sunny......so far anyway.....but we're surrounded by sheep.....in fields this time.
We headed off to Culloden Moor to tour the site of where the Clans were destroyed by the English army in 1746. Fantastic presentation.........audio visual......but with tons of artifacts and one 360 degree movie where they have you stand between four screens. The impression is you're standing between the two opposing armies as the Scots charge......amazing really!!
After this we headed further north to Tain...the site of Glenmorangie Distillery. This is the furthest north we'll travel. This distillery though very much caters to tours and visitors. Had a great visit......bought something pretty darn expensive and then a long drive back to the cottage......after stopping for dinner in Abelour at the Abelour Hotel.....which, for food anyway, we can highly recommend.
