Picturesque Plockton at Dusk: A Trip of a Lifetime

I’d beem dreaming of doing the Scottish Grand Tour for long time, and researched and booked the accommodation months before.

The weather forecast a couple of days beforehand was incredibly bad, and I even considered cutting my losses and cancelling. But I’m so pleased that I didn’t. It was a trip of a lifetime in so many ways.

At the end of May I set off on the rail tour from Edinburgh via Perth, Dunkeld and Inverness to picturesque Plockton on the west coast of Scotland. When I arrived after an amazing train journey there was a torrential rainfall so I relaxed in my cozy B&B and read a book. By the evening Mother Nature played along and gave me stunning dusk moments and these amazing reflections.

The last rays of the setting sun lit up the picturesque shore at Plockton and the waters of the Loch Carron estuary. I had to fight off the pesky midges on this calm evening but this view was well worth it.

Charming Cellardyke Harbour

When staying over in the Anstruther in the East Neuk of Fife, I wandered along the coast and stepped back in time to enjoy the history of idyllic Cellardyke, formerly known as Nether Kilrenny or Sillerdyke. Originally built in the 16th century, the picturesque harbour was rebuilt around 1830 with typical coastal architecture and red pan tile rooves. I enjoyed exploring the quaint village and the pier with its lobster pots and washing lines.
