#Campbeltown, heading north through the #ScottishHighlands #NC500 (#NorthCoast500).

We are starting back off from Campbeltown, heading north, following the #coastroad whenever possible. We ultimately have to turn east, steering towards our next destination: #Fortwilliam. In addition to the incredible scenery, this particular Scottish Fort is also the home of #BenNevis, Britain's tallest mountain!

Hoping to see us drive all the way up to #Durness, the most North Easterly point of the Scottish Highlands (without leaving the mainland)?

You're in luck! In fact, we drive all the way into #SangoSands, Durness's hugely popular #camping and #Caravan #Campsite!

Sango never actually closes. Outside of the main season, they operate a donations box, where you are welcome to stay, regardless of the time of year, but are expected to post the site fee through the office door. Obviously, it's an honesty box type scenario, but they only ask for half the usual site fee, and I think they even leave the communal kitchen open (main toilets are close out of season, but I think there are public toilets across the road(??)

If you are thinking of driving the NC500, each direction offers something new. Driving it Clockwise or Anticlockwise are each like completely new drives, so if you have time..!
