The Peninsula is stunning whatever the season. We love a little bit of dramatic weather here and this is the perfect day to blow away the cobwebs with a walk on the beach.
We had a lovely visit to the Seaboard Centre this morning for coffee and a blether. However, we couldn’t go to Balintore without saying hello to the Mermaid of the North first! Just listen to the sounds of the water on the shoreline. 💙
We don’t mind missing the Cromarty-Nigg Ferry as we know there will always be another one coming back soon… But what a perfect spot to stop, slow down and wait awhile.
What better way to start the day than a walk along the beach. The sound of the water and the birds is just heavenly. Visit somewhere wonderful www.easterrosspeninsula.com
