Ardnamurchan and Mull
Ardnamurchan Point Lighthouse
Just returned from the most westerly point on the British mainland. Sadly the tower was not open due to renovation work. To get to it you have no option but to take a single track road (with passing places) for thirty miles through woodland and moorland, sandwiched between the sea and hills. We did go further west, by ferry to the Isle of Mull landing at the centre of population - the village of Tobermory:

from whence we embarked on a trip around the island along some dramatic roads.
Passing Place View
It was pretty wild and very sparsely populated. Just the right conditions for golden eagles and other raptors. We saw them but I haven't managed to capture more than distant dots inn the sky on camera.

Home of Clan Maclean, Duart Castle was worth a visit. Unbeknown to us it was the last day of public viewing in 2017. Once again renovation work is underway.

Goodbye Mull
Back on the mainland it was easy to see why many had stopped off to take photographs at the pass of Glencoe.
Go west till you can go no further :-)
