Stories from the road

Tales from the driver's seat

I've been guiding guests around Scotland since 2017, and the road is full of stories. Here are a few of my favourites. Ask me for the rest on tour.

Coffins in the water at Wyvis, Harry Potter's hidden gorge, and a top-secret film called “Charlie's Tale”.

Wardlaw Mausoleum: The Jacobite Secret on My Old Doorstep

The Old Fox, a secret journey home, and a coffin that held someone else entirely. Outlander fans, this one's for you.
