Sunday 30 April travelled 35 miles Drove on to Talmin for an horrendous 3mile coastal walk picking our way around a cliff path, across streams , through bog , uneven ground with vertical smooth slabs to clamber over and a precipitous drop below us ...last time I do an intermediate walk from a local walk book or trust Andy's judgment that ' it will be fine ! ' Talmin harbour itself delightful and photogenic On to Durness via roads around Ben Loch and Loch Eribol where we stopped for a coffee at a loch side caravan and camping site tea room run by an elderly couple from Yorkshire for the past 17 years, (his wife being the ceramic glass artist ,) Called in at Caennebeinne beach for a frolic ,simply stunning azure sea, hopeful surfers , bright sunshine stacks freezing cold ! Recommended.... Tucked up for the night at a proper campsite at Durness (Sango Sands) for 2 nights , on the headland overlooking 2 beaches, next to a pub , a SPAR ship and a visitors centre Had hot non chlorinated showers - bliss , drink in pub and settled in for an episode of Game of Thrones ( sadly no reception phone or with fi here either )
