After second breakfast, we proceeded down the west side of Holy Island. Although the monks would rather you did not camp, they are quite happy for you to stay in their hotel. This is the original farmhouse, which has been rather tastefully restored and extended. Rooms, single and double, are available from £55 to £75 and that even includes some vegetarian meals.
Jim was very pleased with his new P&H Quest, he loved the white deck, which matched his paddles!
Tony looked back over Lamlash Bay and the village of Lamlash to the snow flecked cliffs of Beinn Nuis 792m, and Beinn Tarsuinn 826m.
Rounding the shallows off White Point, the south end of Holy Island stretched away to the Inner Light in the distance.
