Hi everyone! I'm back with a bucket list travel vlog, as I take you on the Caledonian Sleeper train from London Euston, England to Fort William in the Highlands of Scotland. Discover what it's like to travel in a Club and Classic Room, or a Seat on this iconic sleeper train as I take you on a 48 hour adventure. In Fort William we'll hike to the world famous Steall Falls, the second largest Waterfall in Scotland, which is a spectacular location in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, and take the challenge of walking the wire rope bridge over the river. On the train journey we depart London to travel up through England, into the Scottish Highlands and pass through the most remote and highest train station in the United Kingdom, Corrour railway station - which is a location in the film Train Spotting. In Fort William I take you on a tour of the high street, stopping off at some Charity Shops and local pubs, including the Ben Nevis and share with you some ideas for acomodation and tips for hiring a car! Hope you enjoy and if you have any questions leave them in the comments :)

When going on solo hikes, it's recommended you notify your hotel proprietor, but also to leave a note in your car window stating when you started your hike, the destination, what you are wearing (color jacket) and when you intend to return. If someone finds the car unattended beyond the time you intended to return, they can sound alarm.

@user-vs6hz8jj2j 4 месяца назад

Great advice! Preferably don't go solo.

Who needs a travel guide when you've got Mr Carrington? Excellent, fantastic filming. Thank you 💙

@sheilahenderson5973 5 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for taking us along with you. That was very interesting, both the train journey and Fort William. You do this so well; someone give Mr Carrington a travel show, please 👍 🤗 🏔️

@sarahpearsall2248 5 месяцев назад

Yes that’s a great idea. We haven’t had anyone this good for ages. He is such a lovely man too.

@ianwishart9471 4 месяца назад

He’s possibly too busy with the “Sort your life out” programme

@user-ur7zs8uj5x 4 месяца назад

What a charming young man. His appreciation of the kindness of the people he met in Scotland is heart-warming - and no silly pickiness about the wrong sort of tissues or whatever. Wanting to be pleased is a gift.

@user-yf6ew4de4e 5 месяцев назад

My daughter is 40 in Jan 2026 and your travel vlogs have given us loads of inspiration, she just has to choose now which one she wants to do, of course mom will be tagging along. Thank you for your vlogs, not just travel, I love them all. Xx

Mr C…You should have your own travel show on mainstream TV x

@cathyridley3005 5 месяцев назад

My first impression is wow that's a tiny room!😲

@ajohnson2381 5 месяцев назад

Got to be your best video ever. So detailed, funny moments and about the places you visited not just about getting pics for Instagram. Your manager needs to get a producer on board for a tv series. Really enjoyed it. You are a brave man attempting the wire walk and no gloves!

@lizprice3948 5 месяцев назад

Enjoyed that so much. I was in Fort William 11 months ago and it was freezing and Sunday so everywhere was closed. We were staying in Oban and visited Mull and Iona. I drove up to the north of Scotland in September and it was so hot! I I love Scotland and go every year. It is a very long drive and needs 2 full days to drive north. It is also nice to catch the train from Fort William to Kyle of Loch Ailsh and from there to Skye which is one of my favourite places. It is such a shame the weather was so awful on the second day but you don't go to Scotland for the weather!! The scenery is stunning and the food everywhere is so good. More of these please! Haste ye back! (Living in London it is easy to forget just how remote parts of Scotland are) It is such a wonderful place to refresh the soul away from the hustle and bustle of London and smell the fresh air!

@daftirishmarej1827 4 месяца назад

Try flying to Glasgow then onward however you want to. I went by Scotlink (bus) to Fort William then Skye. Bliss!

@ShirleyBreslow-hm6nh 4 месяца назад

OMG! You are so brave! Thanks for taking us along! That hike!!!

@stampinwithcam 5 месяцев назад

Coo, it looks a lot posher then when hubby and I went on the sleeper in the 80's! I'm a bottom bunk sleeper. I remember when we were nearing Fort William I looked out of the window and said, "Look at those goats; they're huge!" Hubby said, "They're stags...." What a wally!🤣

@deborahprice1171 5 месяцев назад

I am awarding you Vlog of the Year. Just wonderful but scary too. That ridiculous path and bridge. So glad you made it safely back. Thank you for all your wonderful vlogs.

@sandyc5331 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for taking us to Scotland ❤

@debrahart1090 5 месяцев назад

Oh how I love your vlogs. Hubby and I would love to do this same trip one day. My late mum and dad did the trip in the 50's with one of my late brothers on a motorbike and sidecar. They went to Fort William and even climbed Ben Nevis. Mum used to love telling me that story. Your fabulous vlog brought it all back because my dad used to work on the railway back in the old days. I love watching your vlogs in the afternoon on my tv. Thank you so much. Big hugs from your fans here in Mallorca Debra and Manoloxxxx ❤❤❤

@charlotte0069 5 месяцев назад

Oh my goodness you’ve inspired me. I’ve started solo travelling and this ticks all the boxes for me. Brilliant video, thank you.🙂

@gailmcgregor3642 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for such a wonderful video! My father was from Scotland and we had some lovely vacations there. We drove to Fort William down those twisty roads through spectacular valleys. Even though my father emigrated to Canada and loved it here, his heart was always home in Scotland.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🇨🇦❤

@Pollie410 5 месяцев назад

Delighted that you've been up here to Scotland on the Caledonian sleeper train and am thoroughly enjoying seeing everything! I Love your lilac tartan Jumper and your pjs ! saying all this in a Scottish accent! 🥰

@mags8014 5 месяцев назад

Thank you, Mr C. I love sleeping on a train and it’s always snug! That pathway to the waterfall was pretty scary and I couldn’t believe you were going to try that bridge! Brave lad! Thanks for the glimpse of beautiful highland scenery; lovely video.

@cliffhorman6846 5 месяцев назад

How beautiful... magical... great selection of music whilst looking at the highland scenery through the train window as well. Mr C, this was a wonderful watch I loved all of it, so beautiful so informative. I live in Melbourne Australia and have always enjoyed sleeper train travel all over the country, its really a lovely timeless way to go. It is lovely when the trip is a wonderful part of the journey.

@lawriefoster5587 5 месяцев назад

This was so great to see!! The Summer of 71 my parents and I drove around the Continent and then the UK. Dad was quite the Fly Fisherman so he fished the River Tweed. We did not have time to get to the Highlands which I highly regret. He wanted to see it so.

@chrisroylance3109 5 месяцев назад

Your very brave doing that walk to the waterfall, not for me at my age, as I’ve got older I’ve also got more afraid of heights.

@Hunterhaunt 5 месяцев назад

@cherylmartin9994 5 месяцев назад

Video paused lol that cabin is so tiny!! It's like a tiny house on wheels lol I think I would sleep on the bottom. I'm way to clumsy to tempt fate by sleeping on top! 😂

@dawncowan7009 5 месяцев назад

I was lucky enough to win a weekend break to Inverness on Alans robsons night owls. The ppl were lovely and the Kingsmill hotel was beautiful.

@kayweitzel8374 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for another wonderful video. I am at home sick in bed at this time so it was delightful to watch you having fun. The scenery was breathtaking. The bridge did look a bit iffy!!! Much love to you both. See you next video! ❤

@tracycotgreave4227 5 месяцев назад

There are so many beautiful places up there. Inverary, Crinnan oh loads of places, me and my husband actually travelled on his motorbike to Tarbet, on our honeymoon. All the way from Cheshire to Scotland and back. We had square bums by the time we got home...😊

@juliebrooke6099 5 месяцев назад

I went on a sleeper from Paris to the alps for a skiing trip for new year 1985. There were six of us in the cabin, three bunks on each side- myself, my French pen friend and four of her French friends . It was just beautiful coming out to the early morning sunshine on the glistening snow and the spectacular mountains.

@christinevickers3082 5 месяцев назад

@christinelilly1340 5 месяцев назад

I would be claustrophobic in that little room!! I was thinking how much I’d like to do that trip one day-I’m watching from Florida-and then saw the room and thought ‘no way’.

@shirleymclean5895 5 месяцев назад

We could only secure seats on one particular occasion, but it was super comfortable! Except the thermostat broke down, and we had to endure a tropical temperature for the entire journey.Group of ladies in our carriage changed into matching PJs and popped on face masks, and just loved the experience.Really admire your adventurous spirit, and the scenery and atmosphere - literally out of this world!

@shirleymclean5895 5 месяцев назад
