Keep walking along the street until you reach a red telephone box, and then turn right. Harbour Street follows the sweep of the shoreline around to the headland and is lined with a perfect row of cottages facing the water. Turning left you’ll see the building that served as the exterior of the Stag Bar its former signage now a plain whitewashed wall. On your right is the filming location for Rory Campbell’s shop, which now houses the Plockton Craft Shop. Heading down Innes Street towards Harbour Street, the view of the water opens up before you. The journey time from Inverness by train is just under two and a half hours.įrom Plockton train station it’s around 15 minutes walk downhill to the village. This was a fabulous way to travel, as I arrived having spent a comfortable night in a sleeper berth and could catch the next train directly to Plockton. The closest large town to Plockton is Inverness, and I arrived there first thing in the morning on the overnight train from London. The picturesque village of Plockton on the shores of Loch Carron brought Lochdubh to life on TV. The Hamish Macbeth books are set in the fictional fishing village of Lochdubh (meaning black lake in Gaelic).
