    Brilliant series! Many congratulations to all three of you! John and Angela are such kind and hardworking people, I really hope the Council starts the road improvement works soon or if not perhaps the MOD could step in and help? Like you, I was lucky to get a lift to the Kyle of Durness which was brilliant. Once in Durness, we’d missed the scheduled morning Durness Bus departure but I managed to arrange for a Taxi to come from Lairg to pick us up and take us back to Lairg train station - Northern Sights Taxis - which meant I could get to Inverness the same day and start the long train ride home. Well worth considering if you can’t make the morning Durness Bus service, and if there’s a group of you, then it’s good value too all things considered. All the best for your future adventures, Andrew

      thanks Andrew, great to be in touch and useful advice which I've pinned. I'm now watching your series, I've discovered the CWT has quite a community. I don't know about you but I absolutely loved making these videos, they're my personal favourites. Good luck to you too, wherever next your'e heading.

    What an incredible journey on the Cape Wrath Trail! The final stage from Sandwood Bay to the Cape looks both challenging and rewarding. Thanks for sharing all the essential travel arrangements and highlighting the issue with the potholes. I really hope the Highland Council takes action soon to support the lighthouse and its hardworking owners. Best of luck to the team, and thanks for taking us along on this epic adventure. I thoroughly enjoyed every part!
    Cheers,

      Thanks ever so much Simon 🤗 And thanks especially for the comments on behalf of John at the lighthouse. He’s built a very niche business and needs all the support he can get from visitors. Really pleased that the videos are being enjoyed so much, it reflects the enjoyment I had editing them. Best wishes, and continuing happy travels abroad! Sue 😊

    Well done to all three of you, an epic adventure. I think the wide expanses of beautiful coastal scenery in the final section made a fitting counterpoint to the earlier rough & rugged parts. I've been thinking about Sandwood Bay off & on since I read a Cameron McNeish walking book with it in over 25 years ago.

Well on my way through the Corbetts and really enjoying them, a feeling of more remoteness and not too many people about compared to the Munro's although I'll probably end up do a second round of those as I'm at 70 odd already 🤣and as long as the knees last 😂 All the best to you too...
