Sun every day with no rain!! 8ins of snow

Dear John and Gillian
Had a great time. The weather after the first couple of days was fantastic. Sun every day with no rain!! Took your advice though and never left without a brollie. The landscape was amazing. The highlight was getting lost on one of the mountains. The snow covered the foot path and we trod through 8 inches of snow. A little scary at times, but we made it back safe. Cottage was lovely. Very clean. Well situated. Slept very well, not sure if it was the fresh air, the exercise or the comfortable bed !! Hope to do it all again may be later in the year or next year.
Thanks Ruth and Andy

Lots more pages in the website


Glencoe is absolutely wonderful at the moment. The sun is shining on the snow, the sheets of rain then pass over, the sun is out again, the wind is gusting to force 9 at sea level, then there is a calm, and once more a wall of water appears in the distance but before that the sun is shining on the snow.

What a place!

Just had this e-mail from our guest last week.

Just to let you know John, we had a great time. We needed to come home today for family reasons, but our 4 days were spent doing some great walking. We managed one Munroe on Saturday, but it was difficult because of very icy conditions, so we kept to lower walks for the following 3 days. Quite spectacular walks in Glencoe, and a fair amount of snow above around 600m. Weather very kind.
We aim to return to the area to tackle the mountains without the ice some time in the future - they certainly deserve a return visit.

We've been busy adding new pages and revising old ones to our cottage website. If we post the links here, then this helps Google to "see" the new pages.
