Inveraray is a town in Argyll and Bute. It is on the shores of Loch Fyne. It is a former royal burgh, the traditional county town of Argyll, and ancestral home to the Duke of Argyll. Very attractive town with its white buildings and stunning Castle. The iron sailing ship Vital Spark is moored at the pier.

Best of the West Festival
After a scenic drive along the bonnie banks of Loch Lomond to Tarbet. Then straight on Arrocher. With views of the famous Cobbler [Ben Arthur]. Next it`s up to the Rest and be Thankful and on to the town of Inveraray. The event was being held in Inveraray Castle. Which is just before you hit the town if you are arriving from the south.

Scotland`s year of food and drink was celebrated at the Best of the West.There was so much on offer.I wish I had more than one stomach to enjoy the produce there.
Some of local Chefs were there too to show you their skills.Everyone was sampling the famous Scotland's larder. There was food there that you would not get any where else on the planet. Delicious ---Below is the local Whisky company.

They were the highlight for me. The crowd went crazy with all ages dancing and clapping.
Angus MacPhail and Andrew Stevenson formed the band. Robert Robertson, Ross Wilson and drummer Alasdair Murray joined after.The boys are from Tiree - in the Inner Hebrides. There unique authentic Highland music was brilliant.
