Hi and welcome to my channel. Howard Bruce Travel Videos : Bringing Adventure Home.
Taking travel photographs, video and drone videography started out as a bit of a pastime. However, since retiring, I now have the time to travel the world, capturing the beauty and unique sights every country has to offer.
Photography is the main way I share my experiences with the world and hope you enjoy browsing through my photographs and videos as much as I enjoy taking them.
This is also a good reference point, if you are thinking of booking a trip, to one or more of the locations I have currently added to my site.

Love your beautiful video , I lived there for 18 years and raised my kids there. Very proud of that community and there people
Spent part of my childhood there; my mother's aunt lived in Luss and did 'Bed and Breakfasts' for many years!One of Scotland's prettiest villages and used as a location for 'Take The High Road'☺
It certainly is a beautiful spot. 😄
Haven't been here since 2003. The place hasn't changed at all was pleased to feel the nostalgic vibes
Full
Nice sharing
Nice video, keep them coming 🎉
Thanks Mr Martin 👍🏼
Used to come here when i was a kid back in the 60's. I visited here 2 days ago and after over 50 years i was really disappointed with the beach. I know things change but there was nothing there for the kids anymore. The shop on the prom was gone, nothing to replace it. The play area where i remember a merry-go-round and a concrete shelter next to it now gone, nothing to replace it. The beach now has rocks on part of it. Sad really.
This bridge thru canyon is fantastic.
Very nice captured !
Thank you so much 😀
I live here great place
It’s a lovely town.
Lovely in the summer.
The incomparable beauty of the Highlands , especially Deeside and the truly wonderful Scottish people (of the old school) - heaven on earth ! Thank you to Howard Bruce for this charming little video . 🦋
Thank you for your kind words. You are correct, it is heaven on earth .
Paisagem Paradisíaca !!!!!!
Wow absolutely lovely
Beautiful.. not a sign of a midge, nor horizontal rain that passes by and comes around again 😄
Most villagers who have stable income can try establish a newspaper like "The Daily Reading Balmoral" for nice workshop of Angel Humen and PhD Devil.
um paraíso, privilégio para poucos.
Visitado e apreciado por muitos . Um lugar bonito.
perfeição criado pelo homem.
E Lindo .
Can the general public go inside the church?
These are the times I believe the Church is Open to the public. Open April to October, Monday to Saturday 10am to 4pm; Sunday 12.45pm to 4pm. No doubt when the Royals are visiting Balmoral Castle these may change.
@@howardbrucetravelvideos thank you very much for this information.
@@sabinabirnie3761 you are very welcome .
Beautiful
Thank you.
I read where Charles wants to make it into a museum, I thought .....are you crazy these crazy people will destroy it or steal it, and for live of God please don't display any jewels. People are shameful now days, this place was her place of love, peace, joy and memories. I think he just wants more money
Balmoral is already open to the public during periods when HM is not in residence when she was alive. ( RIP beloved Queen)
It’s all down hill from here. The good times are over. Balmoral will become a museum visited by many for the first couple of years in the wake of the Queen’s passing but then, a backwater once more will descend.
What an amazing place,no wonder her majesty wanted to be there.
It’s absolutely stunning .
Chciałabym tam kiedyś pojechać,narazie mogę tylko pomarzyć 😘
We all dream, someday we all maybe where we want to be.

ABSOLUTLEY beautifuk
The pier at 1:28 is dangerously used by young people, who jump off the end and into the sea. Also to be seen in the area are monster-sized jellyfish whose growth is enhanced by the hot water being dumped daily into the sea from the Magnox reactor nuclear power station about a mile further north.
Very bad
Thank you for your comment .
Amazing by bruce
