Exploring Kenmore And Taymouth

Yes, I am back in Scotland again.. oopppss.. I mean I am back to posting up my travels while I was in Scotland... the posts seems never ending, right? But they will be... in a couple more posts, my pictures will all be published here in my travel blog here.

I stayed 2 nights in Edinburgh and the very next day, we moved on.... east or west I really did not know.. my SIL and I just let the driver decide our next destination... and in an hour or so, we reached Taymouth.  My son had done some homework the night before, using the venues directory to get all the information he needed ....
Kenmore Hotel, Scotlands Oldest Inn
This reminded me of Cameron Highlands Heritage apartments...
We went in to check out the rooms and get some warmth...
I think this is a good place during winter... I am sure many like to ski here..
On the way to this place, we saw many snow filled mountains..
I am sure this inn will be popular during winter
and I think there have many storage for skis.
Then we walked out from the hotel and checked out the surroundings....
Walking distance to the Taymouth Castle...
Kenmore is a beautiful village with sightseeing landmarks...
Taymouth Castle is one of them and worry not about accommodation..
There are plenty to choose from... cottage homes and country guest houses..
I guess my son is using 
Nestling on the banks of the River Tay, the scenery is really breathtaking...
The three ducklings...
and the Three Swans... hahahaa...
Looks sunny but as usual, freezing to our bones...
Perhaps I was wearing something too "thin"... my legs were kind of shivering against the blowing wind...
Amidst it all, I love this breathtaking and majestic mountains of Kenmore, 
the River Tay is not to be missed spot... a spectacular sight to behold...
the surrounding areas offers a place of relaxation for those who wants to breath in comfort and peace
and for the more adventurous, it is a magnificent countryside to be explored....

  8. It does look so lovely and peaceful! Have you spotted the Loch Ness Monster yet? The Kenmore is more modern and inviting looking than the other buildings.
