EPIC Skye Motorhome Road Trip
We take our motorhome out from Morvich Caravan and Motorhome Club site to have a drive past Eilean Donan Castle, across the Skye bridge at Kyle of Lochalsh, through Broadford, the mighty impressive Cuillin range, around the north of Skye, to Dunvegan Castle where we relax with a walk around the beautiful gardens.

At Whitby on the coast near us, Jet is famously dug up for making jewelery, as worn by Queen Victoria. Jet is a gemstone, that is 180 million years old and is anaerobically fossilised wood of the Aracauria tree. The modern day descendant of the Araucaria is the Monkey Puzzle tree, like the one in the Macleod's Dunvegan Castle's grounds.

Currently in The Highlands, went to Skye a couple of days ago and it was lashing down, couldn’t see a thing, so your video has come in very handy! But what a drive to get there from where we’re staying at Invermoriston, absolutely stunning. Not looking forward to the long drive back to Lincolnshire tomorrow, roll on getting our MH next year 😊
