    May or September Highland Tour?

    Anyone interested in a May or September tour of the Highlands?

    We are looking at a quickie tour (4 or 5 nights) starting in the Lakes, then heading up to the stunning west coast of the Highlands, up to the top of the country and back down through whisky country. Staying at some cracking hotels, sampling great scottish food (fresh venison, game, shellfish etc) and driving some fantastic roads.

    Can you indicate your interest if you fancy a blast and a dram (not at the same time!)
    Best Regards, Ian

    In Europe April 15 to May 20th.

    If the tour drops in those dates it would be nice to be able to join in somewhere for 2 days?

    We are driving to London and Liverpool for a few days ,so its just heading North some more.

    Second try lucky?

    We would definitely like to go in May or September. Its not guaranteed but May is usually a good month weatherwise. I'm seeing monkeyboy on Feb 11th and we should have dates shortly after that.

    I did this trip last year and it was a blast, great hotels, amazing roads, the best i have driven in the UK, scenery stunning and some good company with a bunch of like minded guys, what could be better, Mike, looking forward to seeing you in the lake district on 11th for a beer and a chat to set it all up.

    Come all you lot, this wil be the best few days and leave you with lasting happy memories
