We had a brilliant week at Windyhill

We had a brilliant week at Windyhill - the weather was unexpectedly good for
late January!  Every day was very windy but dry so we able to be out walking
every day, albeit mostly at lower levels, apart from one calm day when we
got up Cul Mor.  There are so many options in Assynst for walking even in
stormy weather - Ullapool Hill tracks were a new find for us, Achmelvich
beach and coastal tracks were as good as ever, while we had a great couple
of hours around Stac Polly, with alternate bright sunshine, blue lochs and
sparkling white mountains, followed by total white-outs in blizzards that
lasted only 10 minutes!  Achnahaird beach, where we usually camp in the
summer months, was gloriously deserted, and on Saturday morning was toatlly
covered by snow - kids sledging on the dunes - beautiful, and hard to leave!

The house is every bit as good as we remember from our last visit in 1995 -
well equipped, very cosy, and in such a fabulous setting.  We did miss the
old wondeful wet room, but do understand the needs of young families to have
a bath - you've done a good job there.
