Now re-opened under new management and as popular as ever. The food? Excellent.

The Glen Café is on the A708 about 15 miles north-east of Moffat and five miles north of the Grey Mare's Tail and is a stopping point on the Southern Upland Way.

St Mary's Loch is a few hundred yards to the north and these photos were taken at Easter.

During the half hour to take these photos we counted over 50 motorbikes, as well as a few cyclists and many visitors by car or on foot.

Oh, and one motor scooter...
