Tucked Away

Ten years ago I was privileged to spend some time in England and Scotland.  I love these beautiful countries!  Especially the  Scottish Highlands with their emerald, lush mountains and trickling streams emptying into scattered lakes.  A misty rain transforms the landscape into an almost mystical land as the clouds envelop the mountain tops. This lovely vision will always remain imprinted in my mind. One night of our travels we didn't have lodging and we happened upon the Corriegour Lodge, Hotel.  The snug accommodations comfortably rest right across the street from Loch Lochy and not too far of a drive from Loch Ness.  I tried Kippers for breakfast, which were quite salty and tasty, even if the meal required much patience picking through the bones to get to the scanty amounts of meat.   I remember hearing the place was once an old hunting lodge, although their website does not have any information on it, and the idea seemed so romantic to me.  I've always thought it would be a nice little getaway for a honeymoon or something of the sort and have thought of the tucked away little cottage often since.
