Cairngorms - Day 1

We left home in the morning, and drove straight to Braemar caravan site and set up. On checking in we were told we weren't allowed to use the shower, toilet and washing-up facilities because of Covid-19, which we thought was a bit of an over-reaction because lots of other sites had been using theirs for weeks.

It's a nice site though, 10 minutes walk from the village and near a little stream.

We went for a walk into Braemar, and had a pint at the Invercauld Hotel. Though it was very sunny we had to sit inside because they were restricting numbers on outside tables. Oscar behaved himself though.

We walked back the long way round through the woods, and saw a couple of roe deer.

On returning to the site we sat outside the van for a while as it was sunny and warm.


Later we had tuna, pesto and new potatoes for dinner.

We also had a walk up the road and down the river (Clunie Water) to the village again.
