A wonderful place for a cup of tea

The photo is of Cape Wrath. This is the furthest northwesterly corner of Scotland, an eleven-mile walk from anywhere else (and the "anywhere else" isn't anywhere much), and that's across a military bombing range. It is quite fabulously in the middle of nowhere.However, someone has decided to buy the lighthouse and turn it into a café. A twenty-four hour café.
"We had a bunch of hikers in the other day. They bought a lot of Bounty bars."
It might even start selling sandwiches soon— for which they will need to put in toilets.
I think this is very wonderful.
