We took our time this morning, just enjoying the nice spot we’d camped at, and got away just after lunch.
It was a gorgeous drive today, most of it along the south coast.

Our plan was to head to the lighthouse at the southern tip of Scotland. As we got closer, the road narrowed to a single lane.

We could tell it was a tourist area as there were signposts marking where the passing spots were! And even then, people couldn’t figure it out!

But there wasn’t too much traffic and only a handful of people at the top. We found a park overlooking the Irish Sea, with Northern Ireland across the water.

The lighthouse was a short walk away and we did a loop walk. We had planned to stay in the car park overnight, and it would have been stunning with 360-degree views, but it didn’t have the vibe. And it felt quite exposed.

I’d seen a free spot on the way up that had toilets and a dump station, so we headed back there.

When we arrived, there were already a few campervans parked up. It’s weird, as it’s right next to a camping ground that charges £45 a night with no view, but in the free spot it’s, well, free, and you are parked right overlooking the sea. £45 for a shower seems excessive! We’ll just find a local swimming pool or recreation centre. Or just continue to smell.

It was a gorgeous spot to stop and we took a walk along the beach. It’s a mix of stones and sand, and it’s a really neat spot with that rugged vibe we like. Reminds me a bit of the Thames coast.

We settled down for an early night.

Not much knitting done today.
