The moment I climb into Sula my campervan on the drive I feel I\u2019m on holiday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After\n more than 20 years of vague thoughts about a campervan Ian and I took \nthe plunge and decided to order a brand new VW T5 Sanna conversion from \nJerba. This followed very rapidly from two successful hire holidays \nwith Jerba \u2013 we were smitten as soon as we drove out from the old \nworkshop. Sadly Ian didn\u2019t live to meet Sula, but she\u2019s his legacy to \nme, and a fantastic way to travel as a solo female.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The name is for Sula Bheinn or Suilven, one of my favourite Scottish mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n

It\n came as a surprise somehow when I had to take her for her first MOT \nthis winter \u2013 of course she passed \u2013 but then I\u2019ve already enjoyed \nplenty of trips \u2013 over to Wales visiting friends, up and down to \nScotland numerous times on the A1 and over to the highlands and islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I\u2019m\n also working my way around the Wild Atlantic Way and Antrim coast of \nIreland in instalments. I\u2019ve lost count of the number of ferry crossings\n we\u2019ve done so far \u2013 the longest from Belfast to Birkenhead when poor \nSula ended up coated in salt spray on the open top deck after a rather \nrough crossing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nearer to home I love popping over to Norfolk for a\n night or two, it\u2019s so quick and easy to just load my bike on the rack, \nadd milk and go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My\n first big trip was up the west coast of Scotland (taking in Suilven \nnaturally) as well as many other highlights including Kerrera Island off\n Oban which I last visited 40 years previously as a geology student. My \nfinal destination on that journey was a cycle ride out to Cape Wrath, a \nlong held ambition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An\n islands extravaganza last year took me via Mull over to Ardnamurchan \nfor a quick visit to Sanna Bay and then onto Raasay where I meet with \nfriends and we had the excitement of driving Sula along Calum\u2019s Road. \nIf you\u2019ve not encountered that it is a literally hand built road, the \nlabour of one man Calum determined to join his isolated community to the\n road network. It is truly epic as it twists and winds over and around \nthe rocky landscape so I was glad of the blow by blow account of \nforthcoming double arrows and bends on the road from my navigator!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This\n was the trip where I finally lost track of the ferry count \u2013 having \nheaded towards Skye and Raasay via Mull on a spur of the moment phone \ncall to CalMac from a layby on the side of Loch Lomond I was on a roll. \n So it was onto the Outer Hebrides and again some wonderful times \ntraversing the islands, enjoying the company of locals and other \ncampers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Barra is beautiful. I think I cycled every inch \nof tarmac and walked the watershed \u2013 crowned with a golden eagle and sea\n eagles. And of course I watched a plane land at the famous beach \nairport. But the highlight was my solo camping trip out to Mingulay off\n the southern tip, which had been Ian\u2019s favourite Scottish island, from \nhis time out there in the 1970\u2019s with the Schools Hebridean Society. \nFrancis Gillies of Barra Fishing Charters took me out, when the weather \nfinally co-operated, and I had two wonderful nights camped on a small \ngrassy patch overlooking the bay. Just the seals and puffins for \ncompany with an occasional corncrake rasping away. It was truly magical\n as dusk fell and the seals all gathered in a huge huddle on the beach \nto sing a haunting chorus. Sula waited patiently in the Castlebay \nharbour car park for my return. It\u2019s handy having a van that will fit \ninto normal parking spaces, even if as a long wheel base I sometimes \nhave to stretch the limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Back\n on the mainland I was proud to cycle round the whole Applecross circuit\n over the Bealach na ba or pass of the cattle and delighted to find \nthe Applecross herd of highland cows still in residence \u2013 I\u2019d last met \nthem when ian and I rode our tandem round here 15 years ago. These days\n you have to watch out though for convoys of sports cars on the NC500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ireland\n has been simply wonderful \u2013 three trips already and still a gap to \nclose around Connemara. Though getting there the first time was a near \nmiss. My sister was with me and as we drove into the ferry terminal at \nFishguard I remarked that I didn\u2019t recognize the company logo. Grabbing\n my phone and booking paperwork I went up to the reception counter, \nannouncing \u2018I think I\u2019ve come to the wrong place\u2019. The response from \nthe guy on duty was to reach under the counter, pull out a little \npre-printed slip of paper of directions to Pembroke dock and say to me \n\u2019don\u2019t worry, you\u2019ve got plenty of time, it doesn\u2019t go until 2 pm\u2019. At \nthis point I nearly burst out laughing. When I said that I obviously \nwasn\u2019t the first he said no, but I was the first that day! So after a \n5.30 am start from Peterborough we had another 25 miles to drive. And \nof course everyone knows the ferry goes from Fishguard to Rosslare, \ndon\u2019t they? Well now you know there\u2019s also one from Pembroke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The \nIrish welcome as we arrived at our first campsite as the sun went down \nset the tone for all my Irish travels since. The Wild Atlantic Way is \nwell signed, takes in lots of beautiful scenery and historic sites. The\n lanes are sometimes narrow and I think if Sula had teeth the fillings \nwould all have rattled out by now. But as a small vehicle she\u2019s ideal \nand my style is to stop a couple of nights and cycle round the most \nintricate bits enjoying the scenery from two wheels before skipping \nacross in the van to the next section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\n seem to have become an accidental lighthouse collector, there are some \nfascinating ones in fabulous locations around Ireland. At Mizen Head \nLiz and I marveled at the geology whilst up north on Rathlin Island I \nhad a chance encounter with the great grandson of one of the lighthouse \nbuilders. And at Dursey Island I experienced Ireland\u2019s only cable car,\n sharing the first cabin out with a shepherd and his dogs. I\u2019d been on \nthe Mont Blanc cable car the month before and the contrast was \nnoteworthy to put it politely, each stunning in their own way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In\n Donegal I was thrilled to meet Eddie Docherty, an original Irish \nweaver. He now runs his own small tweed workshop in Ardara and has \nfascinating tales of starting work as an apprentice on the mill shop \nfloor over 40 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Further round into Northern Ireland, as a\n geologist I made a long overdue visit to the stunning Giants Causeway. \n And my travels in this area were enlivened by the Game of Thrones \ntourist trail. Now I\u2019ve yet to watch the series, but it certainly added\n to the entertainment when a coachload of groupies all kitted out in \ntheir fantasy costumes with shields and swords descended on Ballintoy \nBay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My\n most recent Irish highlight has been back down in the south west and \nanother location made famous by the film industry \u2013 Skellig Michael. \nYes, I\u2019ve stood on the spot where the Millenium Falcon landed (OK that\u2019s\n Star Wars if you\u2019re not a fan). It is a stupendous location, out on \nthe edge of the Atlantic and incredible to think of the monks building \ntheir beehive huts out there in the 6th<\/sup> Century. I was so \nlucky to get a last minute cancellation place on a boat trip to land \nthere. Numbers are very limited for this precious world heritage site \nand the global appeal has meant bookings sell out instantly on the \ninternet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And\n I can\u2019t leave Ireland without mentioning my favourite campsite there, \nthe Apple Farm, strategically located in Tipperary just off the Irish M8\n en route to the south west. You get a free bottle of apple juice on \narrival, camp amongst the orchards and can enjoy shopping for apples and\n juice too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So\n what next? Well, we\u2019ll be back to Scotland of course, with more \nislands in my sights as well as calling in on friends up there. And \nI\u2019ve plans for some mini cycle camping trips based off the van now I\u2019ve \nsorted my solo camping kit out and figured out where it all hides in \nSula. Then the big one, we\u2019re off to sunny Spain later on for a \ncontinental adventure. The campervan crew are highly excited already.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
