Wilderness, Climbing Mountains, Fishing, Scrabble and Whiskey: Skiary, West Highlands

We came to Skiary full of expectation. Reports of a Loch-side haven preceded us; a haven where you can climb a munro during the morning and plunge into a fresh water stream during the afternoon, a haven where half an hour’s fishing produces dinner for six and lunch for four the following day, a haven where paraffin lamps and candles illuminate the evenings’ conversations, meals, scrabble and whiskey.

Skiary is all of this, and so much more.

Skiary Guest House: July Can’t Come Soon Enough!

This is where we will be spending five days in July: Skiary Guest House, on the south shore of Loch Hourn in the Scottish Highlands.

No phones, no electric lights, no cars.

Just good food, hikes, views, late sunsets, wine, whiskey, fishing, staring into the loch, and boat trips.

I cannot wait.

About

I work in the world of online, have a passion for photography, and am never happier than when I'm spending time with my wife-to-be and doing a spot of gardening.

This blog is a collection of writing, thoughts, photos and interesting finds - loosely themed around photography, my travels, skiing and the snow, nature, business and online, music, art and design.

One day I'd like to write a book, learn to whittle a piece of wood, and re-gain my ability to speak French.

My other personal projects include Bootpack Photo Co. and Jerseygr.am.
