    Great find by Heather. I believe the cafe does a cracking breakfast too. Looking forward to the rest of your trip.

    Can’t believe you missed the Northern Lights 😳 looked a nice canal and stop over as you say you can pay more for a campsite than you paid for your evening meal! Lovely weather. Can’t whack a couple of weeks off work can you.
    Nice stop over for a tenner.
    All the best, David & Rachel 🍻👍

      I agree Wizards, Glencaple is a very useful stop, we had a peaceful night there. Both our dogs enjoyed a good walk out the village alongside the river.

    Lovely Jubbly. Been following on FB 👍👍.
    We missed the Northern Lights too and we were in Scotland and we waited up for them 😃🤦🏻‍♂️
    Weather was amazing! Couple of great park ups especially Glencaple.
    Never thought of an envelope for the honesty box! We e just done too much driving and not enough seeing. Lesson learned
    Enjoy Portpatrick guys. Safe travels

    Hi Rick and heather a great video as usual qnd great to see Dumfries again visited a few years ago such a great city and lots of things to see and the history too love all of that coast which is a less discovered part of Scotland if you get chance kirkudbright is lovely and also caerlaverlock castle and sweetheart abbey as well looks like you have found some great places to stop and also don’t blame you taking it easier driving around gets more time for you both to get a few drams in! All the best Daniel

    Had a ham sandwich in that pub about 3 years ago made with square ham, we haven't been back. Think we will be off to Scotland in the next week or so and I thought we would probably meander up the coast from Carlisle. Cheers K.
