Glenfinnan House Hotel, Loch Shiel, Lochaber, Inverness-shire, on a warm Spring day in April.
Poem.
Cruises from here.
Views to the Nevis Range
twenty miles distant.
Spring daffodils speckle the banks.
Mountain slopes.
A pearlescent string of sumptuous silver lochs
mark Harry Potter’s route to the fictional Hogwart’s School.
Loch Shiel stands in as the secret “Black Lake.”
Pine forests.
Glenfinnan Monument marks the spot where
the Jacobite Standard was raised in 1745.
Holiday lodges.
Quaint railway halt.
Glens to remote and wild Knoydart.
Sweeping, meandering loch
with the Glenfinnan peaks to the north
and flat, boggy Claish Moss, at its southern end, near Moidart.
On the glorious “Road to the Isles.”
So much lavish and varied scenery to savour.
We are blessed indeed!
