After booking a last-minute holiday in Scotland recently we decided to split the travel over two-days and do some extra sight-seeing along the way.
The day before we were due to check in to our little cottage in Johnshaven we set off at 5.30am and drove the 5 1/2 hours up to Falkirk. It’s a pretty simple drive in terms of it being primarily on the motorway, but setting off at silly o’clock was definitely the right decision – there were multiple areas of roadworks on the M6 which would have been a nightmare during peak travel hours – and we made it without any issues or getting stuck in any traffic jams.
There were two things we wanted to see in the area: The Kelpies and Blackness Castle.
