We drove to the parking near to Loch Ken Holiday Park. On the opposite side of the road is a short footpath up to a Red Kite viewing station. There were a few birds around, but no kites. We continued on the path to Glenlaggan Wood on which there were plenty of small birds and…
We decided to walk from the cottage again, but this time heading in the opposite direction along the coast. We followed the track, which is also a marked footpath, around Balmangan Bar. We had a look around the remains of the Manse and graveyard, though we missed the gravestone with skull and crossbones. We walked…
We walked from the cottage around the coastal path. None of the paths are marked on the OS maps, so the printout in the cottage from the Dumfries and Galloway council website came in handy. We circled round Meikle Ross and then round the Mull of Ross to Brighouse Bay where we ate our picnic…
We had a clear run from Bredbury to Creel Cottage at the Ross Bay Retreat. We had lunch at the Westmorland services en route. We had tea at the cottage and took a short walk around Ross Bay and onto to hill above Blackstone. The following is a test of NextGEN gallery.
