[@matthewboothman129]

You can not complain about rain when you go to Scotland, it's what makes the cou try so green and beautiful!!!

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Yes and sometimes very atmospheric. We keep coming back in spite of it!

[@matthewboothman129]

You're welcome, thanks for watching

Lovely trip, I had a fab week in Skye about a month ago and stayed in the newish community run camp site at Broadford. the C&CC site was full. The site was Ok, a bit pricey and the pitches were narrow. The weather was great with only a rainy day or two. The gardens at Armadale and Dunvegan Castles were fantastic with Rhododendrons and Azaleas in full bloom. I look forward to the rest of your trip.

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Thanks, I did like Armadale we went there a few years back. Off to North Uist tomorrow.

[@xvsupremacy7190]

Enjoyed this video so much, and appreciate the detail on the route and mileage signs !

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Thank you

[@matthewboothman129]

I drove down that road when I was on holiday there a month ago a87 one of the best a roads I've ever driven down

[@coveredinpaint7318]

That weather didn't know what it was doing! The rain sounded like it was really pelting down when you stopped off by the water, then when you were leaving, the sun was out, and it looked glorious!

[@bobbymothershaw]

What a wonderful video Sir

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Thank you.

[@fourwheeltravel]

Brings back good memories from our trip last year. Good stuff!

[@gillnicholls9665]

Just glorious xx

[@lindafielding6733]

I was on that road in May, brings it all back

[@wendysquire1254]

Lovely... one day🤔😏 thankyou bob and jenny

[@CaraVanOlogywithBecky]

Great stuff, thanks both, bit less sunny than when we were there in April! Enjoy the rest of your tour :)

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Thanks it has improved since.

[@dannypettigrew5738]

Brilliant really enjoyed that I’ll watch the second part later today ‘ take care Danny 👍🏻👍🏻

[@daveslife9486]

Great video and nicely made. Never been to Skye, but always wanted to go there. Just bought a caravan so who knows 😉

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Yes, you should take your caravan there.

[@peterrider3471]

Hope you enjoy your Scottish tour

[@sassylassie3230]

Lovely!! Commando Memorial is a special place,always feel emotional visiting there and the views make it more intense. Thank you Bob & Jenny🚙

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

Yes I found it quite moving. Mainly young men, such a loss.

[@frankwbeveridge]

Another great travel video. I dred to think how many times I have crossed the Skye bridge over the last couple of years, especially as I personally haven't been within 100 miles of it. Between you, Dougal(oh and Andrew Ditton) and numerous other youtubers, I'm nearly worn out. I never tire of "driving " that road with you all.

[@peterrider3471]

Nice one bob

[@TeddyWandererCamera-Bear]

Thank you for sharing this journey with us and we hope you all have a wonderful time on the Islands. The first time we visited Skye we had to take the Ferry because the bridge was not there. And yes when it first opened it was £10, for the first few years ( think the ferry used to cost £5. ) before they made it free. However with how busy Skye is getting these days maybe it should only be free for the locals and have a charge for touris ? We are enjoying watching your videos Atb :D Teddy

[@ronjohnson2073]

From the State of Alabama, USA. I’ve enjoyed watching your videos..! We are retired and we have a 24 foot caravan that we pull with a pickup. I’ll try to watch all of you videos.

[@xvsupremacy7190]

ron johnson A 24 foot caravan would be considered a Static here in the UK 🇬🇧

[@ronjohnson2073]

xVSupremacy I am a little confused by the term “Static caravan”. I looked this up on Wikipedia to see what it means in the U.K. and the description of a Static Caravan is one that is to be transported to a semi permanent location and it remains there for a long period of time. That description doesn’t fit Our “caravan” . Here in the USA, our RV is called a travel trailer and it is somewhat small in comparison to average RVs here in the USA. We have owned several RVs including a folding tent trailer, a Class C motorhome, a fifth wheel travel trailer, a 19 foot travel trailer and out current trailer. We borrowed several of my parent’s Class A motorhomes when our children were young. After our daughter we’re older, we took them camping in tents and they enjoyed that experience too.

[@xvsupremacy7190]

We have just returned from Skye , there was nowhere to park our caravan so the lady in the little Kiosk shop advised we park where we could . The Co op. At Kyle of Lochalsh has some lovely fresh produce etc is well stocked and top quality .

[@frogfoot6218]

Did the same in April , wish I was back now and not at work... have booked 6 days for next april though.

[@peterrider3471]

Bob it’s the ratchet wheel set that you tie car onto trailer with

[@Robertonnz]

Excellent video. Great views. Makes us want to go up there.

[@PoshcatsCamping]

One of our favourite drives too. We have become familiar with some of the sights but always forget just how far it is from Fort William to Portree. Hope the sunshine stays with you. 😎 Trev n Sue

[@peterrider3471]

Bob how often and when do you tow your car ? We are nearly set up for everything just like a bit of advice about size at campsites etc ?

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

We tend to use the towed car when we are at shows for longer, like when we go to shows, in the winter or when we are at places with narrow roads. Probably take the car half the time we go away

[@Doubleoseven502]

Oh I’ve come over all Hamish McBeth now! Are you intending to partake in a wee bit of the local produce! 😉(Talisker!) Turas math dhuibh!

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

A ’coimhead air adhart ri bhith a’ dol a dh'Uibhist. Often get Talisker as a Xmas present from mum!

[@joaotfs353]

@@BobEarnshawMoHo oh ok ok. but do you happen to know if there is any restriction on entering that area with motorhomes? I am planning a motorhome trip to Scotland and had made plans to visit the castle. thanks

[@BobEarnshawMoHo]

@@joaotfs353 there is some dedicated motorhome parking at Eileen Donan Castle, but you need to get there early. It gets very busy!
