Scotland Day 10 - Peebles

Our last day in Scotland.  We left Culcreuch Castle and set off to Peebles to visit family friends Dave and Louise.  It had turned misty and the scenery had a typical Scottish look.....

We had a quick look at Traquair House. Dating back to 1107, Traquair was originally a hunting lodge for the kings and queens of Scotland. Later a refuge for Catholic priests in times of terror the Stuarts of Traquair supported Mary Queen of Scots and the Jacobite cause.

We had a lovely dinner with Dave and Louise and then off to the Premier Inn for our last night.   Back to Billericay tomorrow after 10 glorious days touring, exploring and experiencing marvellous Scotland.
