A perfect base to explore Sutherland East or West We stayed a little way out from Lairg at Invershin but the little village soon felt like home. It was here we shopped for everyday things. We drove through the village many times and visited the local attractions. Positioned almost in the middle of Sutherland, Lairg served as a good base to travel East or West and even up to the far North Coast at the very top of Scotland. Every morning we eagerly watched the weather forcast to see what was the best location for a day trip. East or West = Well West is best no matter the weather. |
|  | We did hope to encounter some wildlife The deer which we had encountered during our visit at Easter during a late wintery season were long gone to the mountains and hills. The adorable Highland Cows were a scenic replacement. |
Magestic Mountains framed with wild grasses You have to travel many miles around here to get anywhere but one thing you will notice is there is serene beauty around every bend in the road. | | |

Joan, another fantastic little page about a Scottlish Highlands gem. I passed Lairg twice by train. I just love train request stops. Did you know that I once stopped a train in Helmsdale when I was the only person on the platform? | volopolo Mon Jun 1, 2009 15:25 UTC
