We had a fantastic family day out riding the beautiful ponies. Shelagh and the girls were fantastic. They took great care of the inexperienced riders and everyone chatted and laughed all the way. We walked along the road to reach the beautiful Silver sands. The horses were all very well behaved and happily took us along the beach to take in the fantastic scenery. We stopped along the way for a few photos too. It was so great to get out and do something fun. We’ll definitely be back in the Summer!

We visited this beach most days to walk our dog while in Arisaig and it was stunning, early in the morning as the sun came up, later in the evening with the sun setting, tide in or out, there was something different every time we went there and mostly had the beach to ourselves. My new favourite place!
