Lochside House was possibly the best equipped holiday cottage we have ever stayed in. It's brilliant for up to eight people and with the wide range of walking options nearby it's a place that is certainly suitable for a return visit. Well done to Julie for finding this gem of a place.
Before leaving, I took a few photos of the living areas.
It's a slow, slightly hilly, course. Neither of us overdid it and I walked up some of the steeper sections. Very enjoyable though, and we savoured a chat with the locals afterwards. Sue finished in 27:07, position 19 out of 66 finishers, and I took a leisurely 36:45 in position 47. Full results are here.
Once back to the meat of the lollipop, there were good views from the narrow path, which seemed to me to be mostly uphill.
By Sunday morning I was enjoying a slightly quicker (31:38) 5km community run, despite tired legs from the week's tussock bashing with Julie. Sue had it easy on the Munro walks!
