Highlights of Our Motorhome Adventure & Travels around the UK

 Highlights of Our Travels

I have my favourite places and memories and my worst, so here's our highlights:

Ben Nevis - The trip up the mountain in the middle of winter and the fresh, crisp snow whilst staying in a Youth Hostel seemed so wholesome and lovely.

Scottish Highlands - The tiniest hotel in Melness, - John O'Groats, the end of the Earth, Isle of Arran and in this picture, the beautiful Ullapool, where the ferry docked outside the town’s main street!

Inverness at Christmas - Royal Hotel and our Christmas Day walk around the city. Hogmanay in Edinburgh.... I loved Scotland in December; there was something quite magical about the place.

Beamish Museum - An open-air museum rebuilt towns of 1900 England, 1920's and 1940's. All the buildings were decorated in period times and the tram ride around the place was just fantastic! Tour of Liverpool with Lions - Over the past twelve months we have visited many places and met some amazing people. We have been raising money through our Lions Club and were invited to attend Liverpool Lions Club Charter evening.

Cornwall - Lizard Point, Lands End. I love Cornwall, but never seen all of the famous landmarks in one go before. We also had friends come over and visit us on various stages of the tour and Cornwall was one such time when we could share some of the best moments of our trip with friends.
There are a lot of great moments - especially confirming my psychic abilities on St Michael's Mount Castle, finding two of the most haunted spots without even knowing!! And watching The Seagull at the open-air Minnack Theatre.

Devon - Widdecombe on the Moor, Brixham, Looe, the pretty tucked away villages of Lynmouth and Clovelly, our day out to Paignton Zoo and High Tea at the very posh Bovey Castle. So many great times in Devon, but for me, the absolute highlight was flying a glider! Another lifetime dream fulfilled. Going to do it again someday, I think.

I enjoyed returning to Scarborough, and the little cottage at Humanby in Yorkshire, where I stayed as a kid with my grandparents, but the best place in Yorkshire was Whitby Goth Weekend last Halloween. Fascinating town with even more fascinating people, a local drama group even performed an open-air version of Bram Stoker's Dracula in and around Whitby Abbey grounds for free! Brilliant Weekend.

Naturally, I love Wales and have been visiting there all my life, so I will leave that area out of the mix. In North Wales, we have Porthmadog, Criccieth, Anglesey and Caernarfon - Mid Wales - New Quay, Tenby and Pendine Sands in South Wales. So many to choose from, I struggled to find just one photo to sum it all up, but as my Beyond Series of Novels began here in Criccieth, I guess the Castle that spawned my story, Didikai Witch, had to be the one to post here.

Disappointments were few, but I disliked parts of Kent, especially Margate and Ramsgate, South Shields and Tyneside in general - depressing places, and I'm not going to post photos either!

I'd like to return to certain parts of East Anglia, especially Sandringham, as it was shut when we got there, but was lovely in early December.
