Just at the end of a month touring around Scotland mainland and Isles. Never been before but heard continuously over the years that Scotland was very welcoming to motorhomers and the vast country was very flexible and accommodating to parking up and camping overnight in lay-bys etc. We found the total opposite to be true, new signs up everywhere - no overnight camping! Also many of the pubs that advertised ‘stopovers’ in the winter months are now turning us away. We stayed only 3 of our 35 nights not on a camp site. The mood is definitely changing toward us I think borne by the sheer number on the roads and growing! Time to get back to Europe where we are seriously welcomed and catered for even if our government have restricted that pleasure for us retirees!
