I just found this via a google search as we will be in Scotland for a week from this coming Saturday and I’m looking for nice places to park up our VW combi van. That place looks divine! Hope the neighbours weren’t too rowdy

I agree it is the most beautiful place on earth, I have been up many times over last few years my wife was born there, and we were married in the village hall last year cant wait for the summer to get back up there

I used to live In Altandhu for 3yrs. Which is about 6 miles from the village of Achiltibuie itself and about 2 or 3 miles from Achnaherd.
Like all of you are saying the scenery is amazing and the locals are brilliant people too.
If you’ve never been there go.
You will be amazed at the beautiful sunset you see up there and the view out to the Outer Hebrides

[...] in the summer I raved about how camping is my new found love. I’d like to amend that statement. Wild camping in a beautiful spot, I adore. Camping [...]

Hello Woofy! Your mummy is from possibly the most beautiful part of Scotland. Haven’t visited the smokehouse but I’ve tried the smoked salmon and duck before. It’s to die for!

My mummy is from Achiltibuie and she takes me up there on a regular basis. We are going up next weekend in fact. I usually only get to see sheep and rabbits. Not seen an otter yet. Some seals though but too far away to chase.

Did you make it to the smokehouse in Altandhu? I love their smoked salmon, mummy sometimes gives me the skin from the hot smoked salmon…

Tartinegourmande – Thank you! Just discovered your blog. Beautiful pictures!
Gen – The neighbours weren’t that friendly actually. At one point they organise a stampede in our direction. Trying to intimidate us. We were wise to their sheepy tactics though and scared them off with a “BAH!”.
Perhaps you, Keith & Rufus can join us next time.
Lucy – The otters were the ultimate highlight of the trip. And it was a wonderful trip!
Carol – Thank you! It was really amazing.
