Highlands & Islands trip planning
Clan Dunbar tours Scotland about every 5 years. I'm going for the first time and taking my family. After the tour we are going on a driving tour of the Highlands and Islands to see areas where the Clan rarely if ever goes. We were a lowland noble family with the Earldoms of Dunbar, March and Moray. Moray borders the Highlands and that is where my ancestor came from landing in the Colonies in 1650.
This is a rough map of our travel plans. The hotel cost is something like $400/night and we need 2 rooms. Looking at about $4000 for rooms alone. So instead of renting a car I thought we might rent a Expedition vehicle and camp. Doe anyone have suggestions of what we might miss of importance on the above route? This would be in the first week of August and we know we will see rain but we are camping veterans. We can rent one from Scotland Overland.
Are there parks or campgrounds where we can shower rather than boondocking it the entire time?
We would love to meet for pints with any X-Marks members who we might find on our route.
Slainte!
