Dear Reader, last week’s challenge was a bit devilish, but clearly not hard enough, as several of you figured it out; you are impressive!  This week’s location should not be too hard to guess…

Which lovely place is this?

This location was one that I almost overlooked in my travels, as I had not put it on the itinerary.  As my wife and I were driving to our next stop on our travels, and in truth we were looking for some spot to eat some lunch, I caught this beauty out of the corner of my eye, as it was a bit obscured by foliage.

We figured out where we could find access to the location and had a fun time exploring it; lunch was served late, and delicious!

Where are we?

  1. Is it Kilchurn Castle?

    1. Congratulations! You’re the first to guess correctly.

      1. Thanks Jansen!

  2. Wow! This is beautiful. What is Kilchurn Castle? And what did your wife and you have for lunch? 🙂

    1. Kilchurn Castle sits on the shores of Loch Awe; the original section of the castle dates back to around 1450 and originally sat on a small island in the Loch. It was abandoned in the 1760s, a while after the Jacobite Rebellions.

      IIRC, we stopped in Taynuilt where we found some rather nice sandwiches in a classic old pub with great atmosphere.

      1. That’s fascinating, thank you! Just looked it up, beautiful country.

  3. I got online just to check out today’s mystery slide but I was too late! But this place was really beautiful..I would love to see this place someday 🙂
