The best way to see Scotland! We had a brilliant adventure exploring Assynt and the north west Highlands in June ’24. On our last night, having camped in an isolated glen, we unzipped the tent only to see a juvenile sea eagle fly right by us! First and only holiday I’ve ever seen three sea eagles before breakfast. Such a treat.
The car was great, the tent was comfy and all the kit and accessories were top of the range. It comes ingeniously packed with everything you need – and with plenty of thoughful extras, such as outdoor games for the kids.
Special shoutout to Sandy, who couldn’t have been more helpful in talking us through all the kit, preparing us for the trip, and going out of his way to pick us up and drop us off at our next destination. Knowing that he was on the end of the phone, in case of any issues (there weren’t any) made a massive difference – thanks again, Sandy!
Practicalities: We had an overspill tent but in the end, didn’t need it. Our dog slept in the car and there was enough room for the five of us (two adults, three kids under 10) to fit in the tent.
It’s also worth noting that you’re not allowed to overnight camp in a lot of beauty spots or on private roads, so it can also be worth booking spots at campsites, as well as “wild” camping. We did a bit of both.
We found Nomadic to be a fantastic company. The kids weren’t the only ones disappointed we couldn’t keep the Defender 🙂
