    Thank you. I went that way way back in 2003 and couldn't remember what it was called. Thank you for this video.

    This is why I love your channel. I've subscribed for many years and thank you both again for sharing 💕. I love your content. I sadly can't afford a motorhome but I aspire to do so and dreams are what keeps us alive.

    Great video. I know this area well, as my brother lived on Loch Awe working at a garden centre there. A very midgies area though. There's another castle on an outcrop of the Loch, hidden by trees, the mole was sweet, have never seen one. As kids we use to hear a song on the radio "I am a mole and I live in a hole." Love travelling with you and Poppy!

    Hi Bob & Jenny, enjoyed your video. On the back road to Ford you passed Innis Chonnel Castle which was the first Campbell Clan Castle then Kilchurn Castle was built after that. There is a Castle a few miles beyond Ford if you go left towards Kilmartin instead of the Oban Road you can see Carnasserie Castle with free entry then onto the Kilmartin Standing stones & Dunnad Fort which is on the way to Lochgilphead. This was where the first Scottish Kings were crowned. You could always drive around the other side of Loch Awe that would take you to Dalavich from Taynuilt that would take you near the stunning Loch Avich Waterfalls. After that onwards to Ford Something maybe for you both for the future. My wife Jean lived in Ford as a young Girl. We are off to that part of the world again very soon then onto Skye. Keep the videos going thank you both.

    Oban is my adopted home town and head heading that direction soon. You might have passed Loch Awe holiday park outside Taynuilt, that's where we are heading. Did you get down to the Inverawe Smokery. Appreciate the MH is quite big and the road down in narrow.

    The little mole was cute but what a noise it was making 😂
    Did you find out what those divers were up to?
    Jenny did make me laugh - the way she refers to the sat nav is like it is a person. 😂 I argue with mine! She is normally right!
    Ohhh tight squeeze with the other motorhome! I breathed in watching it 😮

      Thank you someone pointed out in the comments over a year ago that it's 'killhurren'. Is that how you say it? I'm sure you know how to pronounce Welwyn Garden or Southwark. 😅 it's not also easy when you're not native to these parts.
