Gongoozler visited on 28th Sep 2022 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 4 Access: 3 The stone is about ¾ mile walk from the A489. Take the left turn signed Pottie about 4 miles west of Bunessan and immediately on your left is an area of rough ground with stored equipment where you should be able to park safely out of people's way. Follow the tarmac road uphill through a gate, which turns into a very well defined track. The stone is in a field to your right when a dwelling appears on a hill ahead of you.
