Roadtrip through the UK - Loch Ness to Glasgow



Welcome back, dear reader. Today I’m telling you about the best moments of our journey. If you hadn’t had the time to catch up with my UK stories, you best start reading at the beginning.

Roadside at the "Ach-Na-Sidhe" B&B
An exceptional highlight at the “Ach-Na-Sidhe” for us was also the breakfast that was served there. In the evening we had marked on a list what we would like to have, and I honestly tell you that we got the best breakfast of the holiday here. And every now and then Marsaili came by and asked if we needed anything else. It was so lovely of her. We felt really pampered.

Roadtrip through the UK - Aberdeen to Loch Ness

Welcome back to another little story from the UK. If you want to read everything about the trip from the beginning, you best start here.

The Elgin Cathedral
At breakfast at the "Cove Bay Hotel" the next morning, I decided to order some poached eggs and lo and behold, it tasted great. The crowd wasn't intoxicating, but it was at least something that didn't make my stomach rebel, and so we set off again. And this day was really one of the most beautiful of the whole holiday.

Roadtrip through the UK - Eyemouth to Aberdeen

Thanks for coming back to read more about our trip through Great Brittain. If you haven´t read my previous post about it, you might want to start here.

After a restful night at the "Home Arms Guesthouse", we were already looking forward to breakfast that promised to be better. Worse was hardly possible - but well. We found ourselves in the breakfast room, both ordered coffee and fried eggs. You could get the toast yourself at the buffet, and also some jams. Of course, the same muesli assortment was also represented here, but we had ordered fried eggs. 😊 Well, we both regretted the eggs almost the whole day, because they were as fat as if they had been poached in butter, but no matter. A piece of useful advice, if you stay here overnight, don't take the coffee - it's the worst I've drunk in the whole holiday! The UK is just not the best holiday destination for coffee-holics like me.

UK Road Trip - Solihul to Eyemouth

Route of the day
Dear Reader, thanks for coming back. Today I’m going to tell you more about our trip. If you haven’t read the first part, feel free to take a look here.

On Friday morning we made our way to breakfast at the “Limes Country Lodge”. My friend chose the Full English Breakfast and found out that this is probably not for him - which is perfectly all right, how can you know it anyway if you have never tried it before? But what was really disappointing was the continental breakfast that consisted of a few 35g cereal packs and a carafe of milk. The breakfast waiter/receptionist was anything but friendly. He managed only to ask “Full English Breakfast? Coffee or tea?” and then disappeared again. So while my darling was eating his breakfast, I only consumed a bowl of cereal and a sip of the terrible coffee.
