Bring Madeleine Home
Please take a minute of your time for Madeleine McCann. A new film has been released by the UK’s police organisation for child protection(CEOP)aimed at anyone close to the person who was involved in the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Whoever they are, they have a secret that could reveal what happened to Madeleine. The message is a constant reminder that it is never too late to do the right thing, to stop keeping this secret and pass this vital information to their local police.
A picture tells a thousand words. Truth is, life is rich where the photographs are best. Ullapool and Wester Ross offer riches beyond your wildest dreams.
But nothing that we can show you in this web site can come near to a real reflection of life as it is lived on the west coast. So many things happen here in Dundonnell, in Ullapool, in Achiltibuie…we don’t know where to start...
If you have been here before, you will know what we are talking about, but it can’t let you breathe the air, watch the sunset or get the sense of place coming from the young traditional musicians who infect us all. It can’t offer relaxation, the whiff of the sea, the craic in the bar or the sense of space and isolation from a walk in Wester Ross. By its very limitations it cannot achieve more than put a very good idea into your head – don’t settle for the images, come and be very welcome.
