#7 Scotland Van Life Scotland Its Over
Video 7 - Adverick Castle & Heading for Home
This is the last video in my 2024 Scotland Series. I start with Sunrise at Ardverick Castle and then drive further North to take in my last day before the weather changed to rain again and I headed for home.
I hope you have enjoyed my videos. These videos are primarily for my own memories but if they inspire you to take your own trip to Scotland, or anywhere at all then I would be very happy.
About Me
Thank you for taking the time to watch my video, I really appreciate you being here.
My name is Jim and I am a regular guy living in the Republic of Ireland with a Day Job but also a passion for landscape photography, travel and now travel in my camper van during my spare time.
I decided to take a trip to test my recently completed van in Scotland in Sept 2024.
The purpose of my videos are not filmed to win awards or with a hope to make money or gain thousands of subscribers.
My videos are for me to look back on in years to come and document my travels in my camper van.
If my videos also serve to provide you with an insight in to the places I visit then this is a bonus for me and I hopefully will inspire and inform you if you are planning to visit Scotland or these same locations on a trip of your own.
My Journey starts in the North if England and I traveled a route up the West Coast of Scotland including the Isle of Skye for what was supposed to be 1 week, but ended up being 2 weeks.
If you are interested my Camper Van is a 2018 Peugeot Boxer (Europe) / RAM Pro Master (USA) L4 H2 which means it is 6.3m long and is the 2nd tallest van you can buy in the range. In the H1 you cannot stand up in that van but the H2 and H3 you can. I spent any spare time I had when not working or with my family for the past 13 months converting what was a Parcel Delivery (Courier) Van in to my dream camper van which you can see in my videos.
VIDEO SCRIPT
I decided I was going to continue up the West Coast of Scotland for another 2 days but then start my journey back southwards towards the Ferry Port.
I stopped for a short time at these amazing white sand beaches with crystal clear blue water.
Who new there were beaches like these in Scotland?
I stayed at a campsite in Gairloch to get laundry done along with the usual other van admin tasks.
But then the weather started to change when driving south.
Scotland had blown me away. The little that I had seen of Scotland will be with me forever and I will take another trip to Scotland again for sure.

This video is of our family trip to St. Peter's Basilica in Feb 2022. Our trip was at the time when the COVID 19 Pandemic was coming to an end and restrictions were starting to ease. Unfortunately Italy was hugely impacted by the pandemic, it was one of the countries worst affected and the lovely Italian people lost many loved ones to the pandemic. So this explains why there was a requirement t...
