A road trip to bonnie Scotland in mid-February may not be the optimum time of year to visit as far as the weather goes, but the warm Scottish welcome certainly made up the lack of sunshine!
We started our journey from a very sunny Lancashire, where ironically the statue of one of Stirling’s most famous residents, William Wallace, is residing for restoration work until the grand unveiling in the Autumn. A beautiful drive (albeit on the M6 motorway) through the undulating, green hills of the Lake District then into the scenic lowlands of Scotland which in parts are breath-taking.
