Very informative. I also think to say that a bunion almost resembles the sound of pain likened to your condition. I had seen few cases where bunions and your condition show up. I'm glad to find your video very helpful.

Keep doing what you are doing, Cameron. I'm sure that there's lots of stories to tell in the future.

Great stuff Cameron. Just read through the transcript to get the spelling of the places you mention, … any chance of writing it down as an answer please 🤦🏻‍♂😂

There are lots of issues when people take camper vans around Scotland. Bad driving, slow driving, bad parking, dangerous parking, litter and rubbish dumped in lay-bys, toilets being emptied into rivers and lochs as well as at the side of the road. The sense of entitlement is palpable from many van drivers. The constant “ well we spend money in the local economy” excuse. No you don’t. You look for cheap takeaways or cook in your van. Then all they seem to do is complain about having to pay for parking, overnight or during the day. They all seem to do everything they can to not spend money locally. If you don’t have a good experience then don’t come back. It’s simple really.

Wonderful atmospheric story Cameron, you are the spiritual successor to Private Fraser. We're doooooooomed!

😊

Thanks Cameron, the video is a great help. Have always been active, cycle toured tens of thousands of miles, but then develop pain that prevents, but realise that suffering helps builds an inner strength. Life throws up these challenges, but we learn to overcome. Health is wealth indeed. Great to see this video, thanks again!

Beautiful scenery and a lovely tale of love marked by a standing stone. Thank you for sharing.

Great trip Cameron. You are an inspiration, especially for those of us that can't do the big backpack trips now. Some great ideas.

Fascinating Cameron. What a story thankyou.

Fantastic Cameron and so much history beneath our feet on the hills and glens.

Only if your a lazy bastard

Captivating and inspiring… look forward to more like this…and to searching for the stone myself….🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Fantastic short video Cameron👌

I went looking for that Stone last year and couldn't find it. I had the map but no GPS. Ta for the video.

Would you ever upload your old tv programmes for us youngsters ? 😂

Great little story, I do enjoy the aire reviews very much!

Please keep making films Cameron. Love your stuff ❤️

Amazing, but sad story Cameron. Been past the Stone a few times without even noticing it. Next time i'll take a look. Bikepacking is great fun especially as we get older! Keep enjoying your trips and thanks for sharing them.

Love a good story Cameron .Working at Fort George I here so many stories of the Jacobite's after Culloden .Some true ,some absolute nonsense. Good to see you looking so well and enjoying the bike .

Thank you Cameron, I enjoyed the bike ride and the tale of the Curse of Cluny

Good to see another informative video. We do look forward to your new blogs. How is the camper?, love your camper blogs.

Nice one Cameron more like this and as usual less gear talk👍

Thank you for sharing this Cameron. The more time and miles that pass the more fascinated I become about the human connections and stories we have entwined with the landscapes we pass through. Your telling of this story here a perfect example. How many people have passed nearby that almost-hidden stone, unaware of the lives connected to it? I've spent the last eighteen months backpacking through the hills and places of countries, visiting their historical sites that the inspiring historian Bettany Hughes features in her TV series Treasures of The World, and she talks about how a 4,000 year old earing for example, can be a "short circuit" back through time to people who were essentially, no different to us. Stories in the places, literally beneath our feet.

What a great jolly host, thankfully she’s in the correct business. 👏🏻❤

Very informative and well edited. 👍👏🏻

£15 for a pitch plus £10 for a hookup seems very high when you consider that some 'club' sites charge less than £20 for a site with showers etc. Interesting to know where the Aires are though.

oh Cameron McNeish i love you ! you warm the cockles of my heart, we have once again really enjoyed your post, and we totally agree with your sentiments, A couple of years ago we stayed in a magnificent site on Harris:- the West Harris Trust at Talla Na Mara which helps locals in a pretty remote place, why would you not stay there, we had 2 nights, £30 a night with electric and fabulous toilets and showers which were immaculate, (earlier this year we stayed in a council car park under Bambourgh Castle which was initially a trial and i think is not permanent for £10 again we have no problems with this as it helps local communities) These locations on your post look wonderful

Hi Cameron Thanks for your video. I had an unsuccessful chilectomy in May. Now having a fusion in a couple of weeks. How are you feeling a few years on? Do you walk with a limp?

Such overnight parking for campervan and motor homes without proper facilities such as toilets is poor planning. Were not all running around in expensive motor homes.

Re overnight parking. The new parking area in Inverness is a complete mess with two overflowing rubbish bins and the excess lying all around at 1.30 on a Monday. Typical highland council organisation.

I need this surgery but the wait list is years in Canada.

I switched to Gaslight Propane cylinders in my caravan after finding Calor had stopped producing the 6kg Gaslite bottles. I now have two 5kg bottles in my caravan, they are lighter and readily available from Homebase stores nationwide as well as many others. The switch involved fitting a new pigtail with a 27mm clip on connection, a simple job to do. Changing bottles is also much simpler, the connector simply lifts off with the press of a button. Calor have shot them selves in the foot as far as I'm concerned.

Excellent production Cameron and a great idea if only more would use this facility? Sadly I’ve come across many bragging that they’ve been in Scotland for a week and not paid a penny! I liked the idea in Canada where to visit national parks you pay a fee which supports the infrastructure, Super video keep off the “gear” and you’ll get a thumbs up👍

Thankyou. We're setting off in a few weeks time when schools are back. We only have a wee vwt5. Bought it as I can't fly now due to bad health. Cannot wait. Is there anywhere in this area with showers? We can go off grid easy but as we're going to be travelling for a month or so we probably need the shower facilities.

Well done. Keep campaigning for Aires. There is a place for both Campsites and Aires. I think the Highlands scheme is a great idea, even for only a couple of nights in a week.

Yes, you speak my mind. We have had enough of those who, by their rouge behavior, spoil the right to camp freely to everyone else. I support your notion that we all have influence and can put a stop to it. I have started to ruthlessly report those who violate camping etiquette. I do this, because I want to protect the 80% that abide by the rules from the 20% who don't and spoil it for everyone. I report to the police and to social media, I approach the individual politely and point out what impact their behavior has on the communities image. Those who don't give a shit are reported at the fullest extend (police, social media, me harassing them until they leave). Those who are open for a discussion, I try to sit down with and have a talk about why we all have a responsibility to improve our image! We all need to do this more, and not turn a blind eye towards those who misbehave!

A great Ambassador for Scotland Cameron McNeish. Walked the Scottish National Trail which Cameron devised its a spectacular long distance walk and it also goes through Glen Feshie which is in the video. Would recommend it to anyone.

Nice one Cameron. All about the journey & experience. A breath of fresh air in this space where it's all about the gear & clickbait titles.

Great idea. Agree totally about why are campsites not moving with the times and needs of motorhomes. Currently in France and they are the best at it 👍

So, how is this policed then….

An excellent idea which could help bring down some of the prices charged by some of the big boys who don't seem to understand the concept of touring in a motorhome / camper. We don’t necessarily want to stay in the same place for a week or a fortnight.

Hi cameron, great video and super informative. I have enjoyed the lower forest walk a few times but felt a little intimidated about the mountain section, which id really like to attempt as the views look spectacular. Can i ask if this route is doable for novices? Are map reading and compass skills required would you say

40£** then 50£** and so on** then U have got all by the goolays** who's kidin who** 🏴‍☠️

Another great vlog, I think we said "yes Cameron" throughout it! The scheme is a good idea and we always look for sites under £15 and have found some great places, including one recently you reviewed - the Grampian aire. Keep the reviews coming 🚐

Hia Cameron, a newbie here. Just watched this video, one of yours for the first time and safe to say it won't be the last. I'm counting down the next couple of years till my retirement and getting back into campervaning.

Good idea but should not be voluntary. Torveen sute must have cost the council meaning us a fortune We as resudents are giing to gain nothing, probably higher taxes to accimudate passing through motor homes. Its a but naive to depend on honesty

Seems like a good common sense approach Yes it does seem that the those that own campsites are the ones who complain and a no frills area on their sites seems a cracking idea I for one would pay the £40

Lovely video Cameron and added those two stops to the list. I agree with the 40 quid proposal and very common across Europe. We are wardens on a very small campsite in Dumfries and Galloway so see many tourists going up and coming back down from up North. It seems the honeypots of Skye and NC500 are always on the agenda!

We agree wholeheartedly. We recently visited Tomintoul for the HIghland games. On our journey North we stayed at Hawick in the designated free motorhome stopover with water and CDP. We spent money in the local shops, cafes etc and visited the local parks. Then a stay at Dalwhinnie at 'The Apiary Cafe', again free if you buy a coffee and cake ( which was delicious, and highly recommend). Motorhomers must use their common sense, use the facilities that are being offered, and contribute to the local economy. Keep up the good work Cameron!!
