Urquhart Bay

Looking down onto Loch Ness and busy Urquhart Bay taken from the top road above the village of Dores. Urquhart Castle is just visible on the left of the bay with its commanding panoramic views of Loch Ness. The hay bales are drying out in the lovely September sunshine. The weather has been wonderful lately, except for my birthday last Thursday when it was very misty and rainy so we decided not to go on the Loch Ness Express. A neighbour drove us into Inverness and we had a terrific meal at Rocpool Reserve just up the road from Inverness Castle. After taking the above photo we drove down into the village of Dores and stopped at the Dores Inn for welcoming refreshments and a casual stroll along the beach there at the eastern end of Loch Ness.
