@UllapoolB @BBCSpringwatch Thank you, it was definitely worth leaving just before sunrise

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

Had a magical drive to Inverness yesterday, and spotted some "locals" enjoying the sunrise 🦌 @BBCSpringwatch

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

Had a very cold rewarding walk into Laide Woods, the snow brought all the highlights out

A calm 38 second mindfulness moment...

A wee bit overcast, but always a good walk with my little mate 🐕 🌳

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

A beautiful sunny walk in Laide Wood. With the varied wildlife filling the air with their song and dance... and a chaotic labrador 🐕 🐦 🐦‍⬛ 🦌

I've just discovered that #UllapoolHarbour has a Webcam set up near the Harbour, so this is the view currently. Plus if you need to know tide times, current weather or ships in port, this is the place to go: https://t.co/CHs06wJhsB

Books from the #Highlands
One of the areas we pride ourselves in at @UllapoolB is our #localfiction either by Authors who live in the Highlands / Islands, or by those who have set their novels here. The choices change frequently, but it's always a joy to talk about these books.

@UllapoolB just popping to "town", do you want anything from the shop? 😂📚

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

Stunning and dramatic looking drive to "town" this morning

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

@BinsF56 The air is very fresh, but no frost this morning which is a first in a while

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

What a beautiful crisp morning 🌄

[Old Smiddy Guest House @SmiddyOld]

@UllapoolB So great meet you and chat all things highlands and books, hopefully we will have time over the season too make more visits (and purchases)... and finally get too a book event. 📚

[UllapoolBookshop @UllapoolB]

Good morning everyone and it's time for another #tabletoptour around the delights of @UllapoolB
We have lots of new books in stock, as well as new greetings cards, beautiful bookmarks from both local crafter Joseph Hilton and new Harris Tweed bookmarks from the isle of Barra.
