after the iconic dornie (eilean donan) castle,
we drove some 35mins to duisdale house hotel at sleat pennsula.
duisdale is a luxury boutique hotel. can see from the cars parked!
if anything the price is certainly luxury! lol!
of course it is a nice stone building built as a hunting lodge in 1865.
& they do have a 2 AA Rosette restaurant at the duisdale.
there was a well-kept lawn.
& a nice view of loch hourn from our hotel room window. 🙂
a huge spacious bedroom.
with an oversized toilet.
still the £428 tariff , even including 2x£55 dinner in the pacakage, was still really, really steep.
i will come to dinner here, don’t think i will stay here anytime soon…lol! 🙂
just down a short track from the hotel is the beach.
a nice serene place for a stroll.
the sun set at 9pm. we had a bit of time before the evening 8pm dinner, so we drove to elgol.
it was 6.30pm+ when we returned. it was still bright so we mights as well take a stroll. 🙂
as with some time to kill before dinner, we drove to elgol.
actually it was a bit of a long drive, taking about 1hr 40mins return.
there is a coastal walk & caves, we didn’t have time so we just take in the views from the carpark on higher ground & relaxed.
elgol is also the place where you can take a boat to visit loch coruisk.
wife drove the journey back. the portion nearer elgol are single track roads passable by only 1 car, with passing lane at intervals.
after returning to duisdale, we took a walk down the short stretch of beach. then we washed & rest & looking forward to a nice dinner at the restaurant at the duisdale.
