Is it the Loire - somewhere like Amboise, looking down from the chateau?

My guess would be Saumur, looking down from the castle. (So perhaps a bit like Amboise)

Why are the houses so sad and grey?

andrew_s · « **Reply #1362 on:** 05 December, 2008, 10:28:01 am »

I was going for somewhere just downstream of Angers

That'll be the local stone and slate.

The Lady of Penrhys, Rhondda

Well done Andrew S

You pass it on the Glamorgan Gloom Audax

sg37409 · « **Reply #1365 on:** 05 December, 2008, 09:23:18 pm »

Yes, it's Samaur from the castle. If the houses look grey and sad, it must be my skills as a photographer.
No, not the museum of Scotland

blackpuddinonnabike · « **Reply #1366 on:** 06 December, 2008, 06:53:15 pm »

This is on a cycle route, and there's even bike parking available!

clarion · « **Reply #1367 on:** 06 December, 2008, 07:18:29 pm »

Well, it's a cool ruined 16th(?) century tower house in Scotland, but I don't know where. $:-\$

alan · « **Reply #1368 on:** 06 December, 2008, 09:06:56 pm »

I forget the name of the place but think I recognise it as being featured on "Countryfile" or that Julia Bradbury series where she walked along old railway lines now used as trails.
This was on a distillery route.

It's Smailholm, in the borders. Near Jedburgh, I think. Lovely photos

B*gger!

I often gaze through "guess the place" and never, ever recognise any of the places - usually 'coz I've never been within a hundred miles of them

Then I saw Smailholm, recognised it immediately, but someone had beaten me to the guess. B*gger!

Time for another? An easier one...
