Chasing magically appearing stray hairs from around the showers. Searching for a lost tooth at the breakfast table. Retrieving a Z-bed from the room of angry Spanish guests. Dealing with grumpy tourists and well-endowed horses. And continuously justifying her work as a business not a hobby. Joan Campbell has been a ‘B&B wifie’ for 40 years. Long enough to have seen just about anyone and everything pass through The Sheiling Guest House. As a respected member of various Scottish tourist boards and committees she reveals what it is really like to take strangers into your home for a living. And it isn’t as easy as people would think. Charting the life of a worker at the coalface of the Scottish Tourist industry, Heads on Pillows relives the embarrassments, the heartbreak and the hard-won satisfaction of running a successful Highland B&B.

Whether you aspire to a life in the country, have your own B&B or just want to know the secrets behind this extraordinary lifestyle, Joan Campbell’s witty, informative and enjoyable narrative will entertain and inspire you.
