Hi everyone! Myself and my 2 sisters want to plan a (surprise) tour for our parents for sometime next year as a Christmas gift. They have a caravan but they don’t want to use it, my dad said it’s too big. We were looking at maybe booking b&b’s instead. Can anyone please give me some advice? Is the route 500 suitable for caravans? I really don’t know where to start. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

B&Bs are a good way to go and many doing the NC500 do it with caravans and motorbikes as well. The northcoast500 website is probably your best place to start researching: https://www.northcoast500.com/
I’d suggest doing the route between Spring to Autumn because of the longer days. Note that some places either close or have seasonal opening from October to March so this is good to check too. But there is a lot of great driving, views and food along the way to explore.

These areas also form the NE250
Coastline, mountains, castles, lochs, woodland walks, steam railways and plenty of choice for places to stay and eat. The roads along this route are much more driver friendly for less confident drivers (less chance of having to reverse along single track roads to a passing place).
