Travelling North to Caithness we decided to avoid an expensive and time-consuming detour into the traffic-jam of Inverness (or Aviemore) by stopping in the historic village of Carrbridge. Good call! The Cairn Hotel provided us with one of the best pit-stops on the A9 (or anywhere) I can ever remember. Even allowing for the fact that we were very hungry,... more
