Inverness, the Capital City of the Highlands of Scotland. A few years ago, the fastest growing city in Europe. Pop ~ 70,000.
It attracts a lot of loaded Londoners and Edinburgers who are retiring and selling up their one bedroom flats for half a million pounds, which up here will get them a 3 bed house with a phenomenal view over the Moray Firth, with a 10 minute drive taking you to the centre of Inverness. Similarly, a 10 minute drive from the centre of Inverness and you are in the middle of the countryside. Loch Ness, a popular tourist destination due to the resident monster and the fabulous Urquhart Castle on its north-west side, is similarly a 5 minute drive out the other side of Inverness from the centre.
Panorama of Inverness
An absolutely phenomenal view which we get every time we come back home to Inverness, as we take a back road in which is the more direct route to our home on this side of Inverness. Will need to capture this one time I’m home with a proper Digital SLR and a tripod, with the sun high in the sky rather than low here (5pm Feb 08) which sadly means I can’t show any of the open space to the left of this panorama.
