A Real Highland Gem

A bit of a trek to get to here but, boy, is it worth it. The site roads are a little on the narrow and tight side, but once you're in, you have all the peace you could wish for. If you are a golfer, there is a typical Scottish links course just over the fence. Walkers just need to cross the golf course (about 300 yards) and onto the most fantastic beach (award winning) with miles of smooth, clean, hard sand and seabird life aplenty. Only the day before we arrived, someone on site had seen an osprey catching a fish. We were not that lucky but did see the arctic terns. Site not very child friendly but with the beach so close, that doesn't matter. If they're interested in dinosaurs, then a walk along to the far left of the beach, to the rocky area, then fossils can be found if you search enough. we were lucky enough to find a small aconite fossil. As for dog owners, once on the beach you'll soon tire the mutt out. Brora itself is small but has all you need. A Co-op store, a good pub and a couple of nice little gift shops. There's a small whisky distillery close at hand to visit as well. If you want to go further, catch a train to Wick or Inverness. The fairytale castle of Dunrobin is only a couple of miles down the road, so more than enough for everyone. Only minor complaint would be that with such a popular site (almost full all the time we were there) is that the toilet block needs to be a bit bigger with only 3 showers for the gents. But, will we be back? Yes, as soon a possible.
