The smell of toast and strong tea drifts through a working village where narrowboats glide past and moorhens fuss along the towpath.

The Moorings suits couples after a canal-side break or walkers tackling long-distance paths who'd rather have a proper bed and a cooked breakfast than a night under canvas — though there's a camping pod for those wanting something in between. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so it's worth asking if you're bringing one along. WiFi keeps you connected if you need it, though the waterside setting might tempt you to switch off for a bit.

Onsite facilities are straightforward — guest house rooms, the pod option, and breakfast sorted for you in the morning. Campfires need checking on arrival, so have a word when you get there. It's open year-round, which means midweek escapes and proper winter walks are all on the table. The vibe here is quiet and friendly, more stopover than destination, with the canal itself providing the entertainment — boats chugging past, kingfishers if you're lucky, and that particular stillness that only waterways seem to manage.

Cape-Wrath-Trail (Carnach → Inverie → Barisdale)

Tackles seriously remote and rugged Highland terrain with steep, sustained climbs over high passes and rocky descents – this is challenging, pathless in sections, and demands navigation skills. Definitely not suitable for young children or buggies; experienced, fit walkers only. Dogs welcome but must be under close control (deer country, livestock possible). Rewards with breathtaking coastal and mountain scenery, true wilderness solitude, and the satisfaction of conquering one of Scotland's toug
