Not us, the Hebrides. Those of you who have followed our travels from the early days will know that we visited the outer Hebrides, they are beautiful.
We have become aware, through a variety of sources that, in 2009, the numbers of motor homes visiting these islands increased dramatically, estimates suggest 114%. This lead to extensive debates about the value of tourism and its effect on the locality. It transpires that local councils on these islands have closed off areas used by motor homers and are imposing a limit on the number of motor homes visiting some islands whilst they discuss longer term solutions.
We understand the issue and are glad that we visited in 2009.
