Turned
up
in
the
most
horrendous
weather.
The
rain
was
battering
us,
the
lighthouse
was
lost
in
the
cloud,
and
the
wind
made
it
hard
to
stand
upright.
And
yet
I
still
give
this
place
five
stars!
Southernmost
point
of
Scotland,
and
as
we
were
in
the
area
we
weren't
going
to
miss
this.
The
road
there
goes
on
for
ages.
In
the
dead
of
winter
we
came
upon
the
closed
coffee
shop,
then
the
ample
car
park.
There's
a
noticeboard
to
read,
and
a
path
to
the
lighthouse.
I
don't
know
if
it's
normally
visible
from
the
car
park,
but
not
on
the
day
we
visited.
We
braved
the
elements,
got
absolutely
soaked,
but
walked
to
the
lighthouse.
There
is
also
a
foghorn
to
see
just
beyond
(which
was
below
cloud
level
on
our
visit).
There
are
toilets
nearby.
Didn't
expect
them
to
be
open,
but
they
were.
A
welcome
shelter
from
the
weather.
Would
love
to
come
back
on
a
sunny
summer's
day,
but
this
visit
was
an
adventure.
