A tiny coastal village,
Plockton conjures up images of fishing smacks,
chunky sweaters and the slow-paced lifestyle of an
earlier age. That’s why, no doubt, the BBC
exploited its loch-side charm as a setting for the
popular TV drama series Hamish MacBeth. Once a
busy fishing port, it sits isolated on a peninsula
with boats bobbing out in the harbour.
Despite its harbour being open
to the sea, its sheltered position generates a
microclimate which is able to support palm trees
on the seafront!
Nearby is the larger
settlement of Loch Carron.
