The Reality of "Living The Dream" in our Cottage on The Isle of Skye! - Ep6

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.พ. 2023
- Willie, Sarah and their dog, Jack Spaniels, continue their biggest adventure yet - leaving their suburban life and moving over the sea to 'Live The Skye Life'!
One the things our viewers say to us regularly is "You guys are living the dream!"... but are we really?
Moving to a new home in a new area and all the challenges that come with it is always an upheaval...
..but when the new home is a 140+ year old cottage in a remote area of a Hebridean island, well - there are bound to be difficulties, adjustments and lots of ups and downs.
In this video we tell you how it really is!

Hi Guys, I tried your friend link on this page but it doesn't work "Error 404 page not found" but if you type in the YT search it comes up... best you give it a try from your side, cheers from a very hot Cape Town, South Africa = 38deg C !!
Thank you. 🙂
@@liongod1000 I clicked on it and it opened immediately...
This link takes you to some other page on Facebook
Not sure what’s going on here. We’re looking into this. Thanks for flagging it.
I’m a 63 year old widow from Tennessee in the US. You all, along with Jack Spaniels, keep me company on days that I’m sad. You are an ADORABLE couple, both so talented! And your friends are amazing! ❤TN Nana
Aww thanks Cathy! So glad we can bring a bit of happiness to you on the down days. Hope you have fewer of them going forwards 😊
@@livingtheskyelife just getting a reply from you has me smiling from ear to ear! I wish you a life of excitement and fun, love and laughter, and peace. You’re just the cutest couple!💕
Prayers and Love
I hope the year ahead brings you more happy days than sad ones.
I’m 53 and also alone but unfortunately my landlord won’t allow dogs which is such a shame because I walk everyday and always wanted a spaniel for a companion..I think it’s time to move cos I really would love to have a dog...Take care of yourself now 💟
So I moved from Edinburgh to an isolated farmhouse in Fife we had septic tank, which we only needed to empty once every 5 years although like you we were told anually. We lived there for over 20 years. We loved not having neighbours raising our own sheep and pigs growing our own veg. Wishing you all the best for your adventour
Thanks to you guys i get to see places i know i won't get to see in real life. The scenery is just beautiful, the sound of crispy snow underfoot and watching Jack Spaniels having the time of his life , had to smile though when he wouldn't cross the bridge . Great video, i think i'm living the Skye life from my lounge.
I just love you guys, living the Skye Life vicariously through you!
Thanks Michelle, lovely comment and very much appreciated! 🙂
😆!! Great friends!!
Jack is "clearly" living his best life. He exudes happiness!! 🥰
Dear MEG L.
👍👌👏 Absolutely!
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
I love watching you work on the house as you transform it into your home! Skye is a beautiful place! Your channel is wonderful!
My husband and I have been watching every video (this channel because we LOVE it so much and Sarah’s “She Walks, She Paints” channel too - art is my passion also)! We adore your antics with Jack Spaniels, the scenery, videography and history you share with us. We both feel very connected to your lives because both of our families are of Scottish descent and mine came from Skye as well as Lewis and Harris. Farmers, fishermen and carpenters/furniture makers are deeply rooted and my great great grandparents settled here in the Appalachian Mountains of East Tennessee because it reminded them of home. We are proud of our history and we truly do live vicariously through you and your adventures. We are praying that the next couple of years will allow us to fulfill our dreams of coming to spend two or three months in Scotland. We had planned to do that for our 35th wedding anniversary in February 2022 but we all know what happened to nix those plans. Listening to Willie play music makes my heart smile because it reminds me so much of our family traditions of sitting in a circle and everyone pulling out their instruments, playing and singing. Music is a huge part of our family as well. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Wishing you a very happy, blessed and peaceful day! ❤ xx ~ Jan and Ronnie Trent
PS - Also bought you both some Ko-Fi and followed Scotland on a Shoestring because we are DEFINITELY re-planning our journey “home” to Scotland! ❤️❤️
You should check out Willie's own channel 'Dirty Secrets of Scotland' 😁😁
“So Great” to see a couple who can appreciate and respect and support each other’s accomplishments !
Its inspirational how you guys have found the things you love and made them really central to your lives. This channel shows how you should always put happiness first!
Aww thanks so much! That was a big factor in our decision to move - being able to do the things that we are passionate about 😊
Aww, Jack Spaniels is such a good dog. I enjoy seeing your interactions. Be well.
Thanks so much! Jack Spaniels is the best 😊
I am much older than you all. To me you guys are like baby Rock stars and love your groove. Keep on keeping on. Appreciate that you are living your path and rocking it. ✌️ & 💕
Hey to Jack Spaniels love that little dude.
I have lived with a septic tank as waste disposal for most of my life. They have definitely improved in that time. They are so much better and more economical than a holding tank that has to be pumped out regularly. Here in Canada it’s recommended that they be pumped out every three years, that can be extended if you are careful about what is flushed down the toilet or drained out of the kitchen sink. The filter bed carry’s away the liquids, the solids are what get pumped out. Therefore, flush as little paper as possible, never ‘flushable’ wipes and absolutely no fats or oils, or bits from the dishpan. It’s important that no solids ever enter the filter bed, otherwise it gets blocked and requires an expensive replacement.
That’s what I do with my septic, as little paper as possible,watch what is put down the kitchen sink.
I have an Aerobic Septic, and I’ve been able to go as long as five years without cleaning out the septic tank.
We did the big move in 2010 to Skye from the south coast of England, we lived the ‘dream’ for 8 years but ultimately moved back to England for many and various reasons. Good luck guys, enjoying seeing the parallels between your and our experiences x btw, theres a cinema at Aros🙂
I am so glad you have settled in so well. One thing about living here is the sense of community which we found to be a real bonus. In general, the locals will afford you privacy but are equally happy to “have a blather”.
We are approaching the end of our 3rd winter here and love it more and more, yes despite the weather!
Loving Skye especially with all that snow , a proper winter . Love the isolation too .
We weren’t expecting so much snow! On the west coast it’s usually milder because of the Gulf Stream. Not complaining though - it was beautiful! 😊
Thankyou my beautiful artist,. And songwrighter my daughter bought 2 prints from you sarah, your amazing poppy for friend is so beautful, give both jack spaniels (❤❤❤❤ 😂😂😂😂) best name ever and nori tons of love grom my little.angel (we gave her that name, being a rescue pups your fur babies are only ones thst she wiill sit and cuddle and watch her pin up pups.lol,❤❤❤❤❤ everything else would be told off
My pics are your highland coo and your fushia xxxxxx 😘❤️
If you wake up with a smile,you are living the dream,the rest follows.
At 59yrs of age moved to a home with no gas,just a wood burner n electric, we love it would not go back.
Ah, wonderful video as always, especially starting out with the fabulous views around Glen Brittle. It was a place close to my father's heart, who hitchhiked from Glasgow as often as he could during the 30s, escaping the slums and poverty. He loved it there. Thank you.
Another calming Skye life, it’s so relaxing, can’t wait for ..she paints upload 😊. 💕💕💕
Jack is the happiest dog in the world ❤❤
Thank you for inviting us into your home and lives. The most amazing views and adventures at your doorstep this is during the winter. I'm just imagining what the other seasons have in store for us. What beautiful dream's and creative plans must be following at your home. Give you fur baby Jack a little treat and hug from me. Loved his trick's
Glad you had some visitors what a wonderful time you must of had. I'm heading over to check their channel out.
The best Reality Show out there.
Jack Spaniels is the star! BTW, septic tanks are very common down here in New Zealand 🇳🇿.
Your life seems perfect and idyllic to me! I wish I had had the courage when I was younger to make a major change like that. Jack Spaniels seems to be in love with his new home, but then you guys are there and that's all he needs. I love all of your channels! See you one one of them soon. Sending love from Ohio!
Such beautiful views, especially the waterfall. I think Jack has a great life for a dog, walking and exploring different scents of other animals the curling up on the sofa infront of a log burner, what more could a dog need. The mirror looks great and makes the room look wider. Thank you for sharing 💕🇦🇺
This is genuinely my favourite channel on TH-cam. Your videos always make me feel so incredibly relaxed ❤
There are so many comments I could make! Sarah, you live with a couple of goofballs! How fun! Jack refusing to cross the bridge was hysterical! Really Jack?! The scenery is is stunning! Who does the drone video of you and Sarah together? Music is beautiful! Does Willie do most of the cooking? It is very apparent you are great mates! That is really awesome to see! Can’t wait for next week!
Aww thanks Terri! I really do - but they brighten up every day with their antics 😊 We couldn’t work out why Jack wouldn’t cross the bridge - he is usually so fearless haha! Willie operates the drone on all our videos - when he is in shot, he just sets up the shot to record automatically (they have built in shots like a circle) and subtly hides the controller 😅 We try to share the cooking between us but Willie is definitely better than me! He does a lot of the more interesting dishes, whereas I tend to stick to the easier stuff! Sarah x
Such a beautiful part of the world! It is fun to watch your videos about hikes and being outdoors. I have a suggestion for the mold--- use white vinegar instead of mold spray--- my understanding is the mold spray covers up the mold whereas vinegar actually kills it off. "Natural" to my way of thinking is always worth a try .... versus chemicals.
It looks so cold!! Beautiful though. Love the waterfall! Thanks for the great walk. Have a wonderful week. (from Sandi)
I live in the middle of Indiana and I so enjoy see your Skye life. It’s so very interesting seeing how other folks live and how much we all really have In common even in our different situations.
It's so comforting to know that Jack is a dog who knows his own mind and I'd such a lively ball of mischievous. Our Sprocker Spaniel, Django, is of a similar disposition!! We thought we were doing something wrong!! That's spaniels for you!! In fact your channel is definitely Django's favourite ( as well as ours!).
Fantastic walk. Jack is hilarious, thank goodness for Willie the spaniel saviour 😂
My 16month old son and I love watching your videos! He was waving at you today 🇨🇦 ❤
Your music is so lovely 🥰 Thanks for bringing us along on your journey. The waterfall was spectacular. Spectacular views. 🥰🐕🇺🇸
Another delightful video. Thanks for letting viewers like me live the Skye life through you.
I'm glad everything is working out so well. Be careful you might be surprised by unexpected guests because of how beautiful it all is. Everyone and their dog will want to come visit, lol.👍😊
Living 2 miles just out of Chepstow we too are on oil fired heating, septic tank and subject to power cuts. When the power goes off the water does too as it's pumped to the village! So...not remote but took some getting used to when we moved here from Glasgow 32 years ago! My mother in law was from Torrin on Skye and lots of relatives still on the island. Following your adventure with great interest and thank you for allowing us all to be part of it! 😀
Amazing how far you've come in such a short time, in all your ventures! Love watching you live your Skye Life- from Indiana!
That was fun and beautiful. The area is just gorgeous and it was really fun seeing an insider glimpse of what it's really like there. You all seem to be making the adjustment well. I look forward to watching you acclimate through each season. Thanks for taking the time to make the video for your fans. 😊
Once again thank you for taking the time to make your video on everything that it takes to edit and give us your content. I think we all envy you, a simple life yet so meaningful! Jack has the life of every dog dreams about
Perfect slice of mellow for a Sunday evening, love to you all x
Love your hikes, the views are spectacular! Jack is a beautiful dog!
Jack wants a warm place to sit, too!😊❤ 4:21
Lovely to see a young couple changing their way of life. It's good to experience what life has to offer especially when you're young. Enjoy, have fun and don't worry about tomorrow. 😊xx
Hi you three. I'm an expat from Newcastle, been in Canada now for over 45 years. I am loving your channel. You two are lovely and it goes without saying that Jack Spaniels is adorable, star of the show. Haven't checked out your other channels yet but I intend to. My husband and I just got back from a vacation and I'm doing some catching up here. Lots of love and luck going forward. xxx
Really adore Jack spaniel. He’s so positive and energetic and glad you have him in your lives
This video is so full of refreshing scenery and honesty about your transition to your new lifestyle. Thank you for the time and effort you put into this vlog .
Another wonderful video. It's nice to see you updating your "wee But and Ben" but keeping it traditional. I have great-grandparents who emigrated from Skye and I have always wanted to go there. You're helping with that vicariously. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much! We hope you get to visit someday - Scotland is such a wonderful place 😊
I am also of Scots descent. Maiden name is Cunningham. You both are so sweet, fresh. I am sure you have your moments, but I enjoy your journey.
What's not to love about all the content here💖 Your channels keep me well entertained, they include all the things l love. That's a lovely hike in Glen Brittle, hope l get to do that one soon. It's clear that Jack loves the Skye life, and nice to see you are settling in well. There is a lot of work to bring videos to us, it's very much appreciated, thank you.......Alioban
What an amazing cottage you have. Your life looks amazing guys, good luck with everything.
Loved the bloopers!!! On your Blankey… needs to be on a t-shirt!!! I thought the Catepillar was initially a “present” from Jack… I laughed out loud
That you were doing a close up… then again because it was a live animal and I am an idiot with a dirty mind!! Loved this episode and always look forward to them in Mississippi USA. We have a gorgeous 180# Irish Wolfhound. I picture him facing into the wind on the Isle of Skye. Makes me happy!!
Beautiful view. I brought my mother to Scotland 20+ years ago and it is beautiful. We loved it and everyone was so friendly and helpful. I drove around England and Scotland and was thankful for being left handed so it felt natural to drive on the otherside of the road.
Glad we could bring back some lovely memories 😊 This country is so friendly - we are glad that you experienced that when you were here!
Daughter if a Dunning boy who came here in 1030s. I'm in NZ. I love watching
The scenery there is incredible and that waterfall is absolutely beautiful. It is good that living out there is working out for you. A big adjustment for sure. How nice to have friends over. Love your videos, keep it coming.
I can’t tell you how much I’m enjoying this channel. You are both so lovely and talented and I’ve fallen in love with Jack Spaniels. We’re in New Hampshire, USA, but we’ve started thinking about where to retire. We may just end up your neighbors!
I love Scottish biscuits with all of their butter they are awesome I’ll keep them here in my house and have them with my cup of tea! I am so thankful for the Scottish! After my Mom died in 2014 for several weeks I couldn’t sleep so I got addicted to the BBC series Monarch of the Glen and stayed up for several weeks watching all of the episodes! And the very first week of watching I’ve felt an affinity for the landscape which was filmed Fort Williams! I couldn’t get over the feelings I had while watching that series and I thought to myself I wonder if I have any ancestry from that area because I’ve never had feelings like this before! I live in Williamsburg Virginia in the US which was the original capital of this country and where we declared war on the governor of England for our freedom! So I know I have English background because there was a Captain Grigsby who brought all of the kings friends from England to Jamestown Virginia which is nearby and my family or Grigsby‘s on my mother side and we received a land grant through this captain Grigsby from the king of England! It is up north of Virginia near Fredericksburg Virginia! So anyway back to Monarch of the Glen because I couldn’t sleep but I started searching on ancestry.com for any connections I may have to Scotland and I found that my grandmother on my mother side was actually a McWhirt! Tracing that back to guess what the area around Fort Williams in Scotland! I found that I have a rich heritage from Scotland and that area! So it just goes to show you that we are connected to the land that our DNA remembers that connection! I remember once reading that our DNA carries all of our memories back to our ancestors and that’s why we think we have past life experiences but in fact it is the memory caring in our DNA! So way back somewhere we’re probably related! Anyway I certainly enjoyed your videos and watching you to experience the new life in a beautiful area and I get to travel through you guys without having to leave my couch! Like I mentioned in a previous video I have a black American cocker spaniel his name is Max and I adore him! I have had cocker spaniels for a long time at one point I had five and would have 20 if I could handle them all! Thanks again for the adventures of Jack spaniels he’s an awesome very smart dog!
Another really interesting vlog. I berated myself when I watched you climbing the Cuillin peak, for having been such a piggin' stick in the mud when I had a superb girlfriend 40 years ago, and probably 40000 tears ago, who always wanted to be out in nature. And I spoiled it, every time she wanted to go hiking, or walking. Little wonder she walked away. You guys enjoy every single day. Do not be an Andrew.
Cheers Willie and Sarah! Willie that roast looked just like what my grandmother used to make. I loved the biscuits on top! I’ve never tried to do it, but as a little girl more than 40 years ago, getting one of those biscuits was biggest treat! I lost her when I was 7 and she was the best friend I’ve ever had. It was nice to be reminded of her!
Hahaha, "chilling" on the hammock...literally! Wonderful music, really enjoying it. Thanks for sharing, cheers for now.
We look forward to your videos every Sunday looks like Ur settling in well such a beautiful place to live looking forward to many more of Ur adventures 👍👍👍
AMAZING SCENERY, I had no idea Skye was so mountainous. You guys are having too much fun, LOL.
Love your music, this is now one of my favorite channels. Sarah's art is pretty awesome.
Thank you so much! 😊
Great video as usual beautiful mountains and sea scape. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. X
Hi to you both! I heard you talk about the Skye weather. You probably heard this before, but a local there once told me, ‘if you can see Skye from the mainland it means it’s going to rain .. if you can’t see Skye from the mainland, it means it’s raining already’. It’s ancient but it’s golden.
🤣 Sounds about right haha!!
Love you two stay safe and well and most of all keep filming😊
My ancestors came from the Isle of Skye before coming to Australia. I love seeing where my bloodline might have been hundreds of years ago too!
At 2.22 min Sarah says: "This is what I have to deal with, folks!" 😁😁😁🙈🙈🙈 I had to grin from ear to ear. 2) I just realized a kind of funny coincidence because three twos are my birthday date. It was a really unique date in 2022 and will be even better in 2222! 😁
Yup - the nonsense never ends, living with Willie!
2222?! Are you telling us you're a... vampire??!! 😉
Wonderful episode, much ado about everything!! So happy to see Jack with a friend to play with. I was so pleased to see dumplings in your stew. It's not a stew without dumplings!! Thank you for sharing your lives with us! ❤👩🦽
Thank you for your kind thoughts. I know nothing about Telegram, and am happy not having Facebook, instagram etc. I love your site, and am now an avid follower ❤👩🦽
Thanks - we felt fair to tell you that you received a comment reply from a scammer. They sometimes reply to comments pretending to be us, but they aren’t. We would never comment asking for anything from our viewers for anything. Ever.
We have since identified the culprit and blocked them from our channel. If this ever happens again, please report them to TH-cam.
Sorry this happened - we’re doing our best to remove these individuals from our comments section.
@@livingtheskyelife Thanks, you are precious!!❤
Annie , my father was 3/4 lrish when he was alive . He taught me how to make chicken n' dumplings when l was younger , and my husband and l still make them . He had never had them until he met me , now he's totally sold on them !
@@jewelcopeland3374 Thank you for sharing that with me Jewell. Memories.:)
Amazing landscapes, stunning weather! Funny friends as well😉
Hi again Willie and Sarah, we are a couple of months ahead of you in Skye life as we moved up last September.
We have a wind turbine and I’m just installing a battery storage system to reduce our reliance on the grid. You are more than welcome to pop by and see how it all works.
On the shopping front we use Morrisons and Tesco click and collect and only use the coop in emergencies! They have collection points in either Broadford or Portree.
We are loving the channel, thanks for sharing your journey.
All the best, Barry and Debbie
Thanks both! We hope you are loving the Skye Life as much as we are so far! We think we are going to start ordering shipping deliveries, but we never seem to find time to sit down & get it done 😅
@@livingtheskyelife We are absolutely loving it here, it's everything we hoped and much more!
Piękne miejsce,podziwiam, pozdrawiam z Sopotu,Polska
I visited Sopot by train from Gdańsk on holiday and thought it was beautiful.
Love your videos your fun guys.Views are fantastic .
Food looked yummy.
Such a cute dog and very smart.
My family were going to live on sky as it was our favourite place in Scotland in the early 70s . We used to travel from the isle of Wight to Scotland twice a year to travel around, this brings back so many memories. But instead we moved to Australia , a very big island ..lol , were my sister lived but I kept up the Scottish theme by getting married to a second generation Aussie those family came from Dundee and my two girls used to do highland dancing . It is a beautiful place , lucky you .
Love the channel! You are both so down to earth and having holidayed on sky many times myself, it is wonderful to " be there" again. Please add more of your music Willie, it is great! As for your pictures Sarah, my goodness, they are beautiful. Xxx
Jack Spainiels must be over the moon with you new home and land😘🇨🇦
He loves it! Every night he is wiped out from all the adventures 😅
OMG. Blooper reel is the best. Your friend was very funny. Great location, food looked lovely beef stew and dumplings. Yummy.
Am loving watching you keep them coming x
Brilliant!!! Beginning to end!!! coral beach, smoked trout, footage is stunning.. I could go on and on.. Thanks guys and woof dug. Bloopers 👍👍🍻🤣🤣
Cheers 2 u all. 😁😁
😂As someone who moved onto a rural property several years ago, I can totally relate to having to learn about what a septic system consists of! Including why I can’t plant a shrub “there” because it’s where the septic pipes are …….. ugggh and yes, the pumping of the tanks ….and I’ve also learned that it’s dangerous to let coffee grounds down your drain (because it clogs septic field pipes), and not putting too much fresh water down the drain (because it over dilutes the good bacteria in the tank that breaks down waste)….
Who knew! I’m used to pooping, flushing and forgetting about it……😊
Ahaha yes it was an interesting day learning all about that 😅 Good tip about the coffee grounds! We use a drip filter so most go in the food waste bin anyway, but good to know!!
Great looking walk. Looks very cold. I’ll look forward to seeing more on Sarah’s channel. It was very good of your friends to help with the Skylink ( even if you held them to ransom 🤗) . Thanks for answering the questions everyone has asked. I must admit the midges in the summer would be one thing I’d probably find difficult. Hope you have a great week. Take care. Nick
Wish I had guts to do what you have done...love your videos and Jack Spaniels is always a joy to watch, happy boy ❤️
Love Island Horizon made me tear up. Thank you for sharing your walk and music xx
Jack is living the dream.
Its always a pure joy to see you two....or should I say the three of you 😜😆 what a lovly couple you two are
I now prefer oatmilk in my tea! The picture was good, but the mirror is certainly the better size for the space 😉
Beautiful scenes on the hike 🧊 🏔️ 🥾. ❤ jack spaniels
You lot are having such fun on Skye and getting yourselves sorted out slowly. I love you lot and you always make me smile. Your all terrific thank you for sharing your days with us. Mel
Happy valentine 💝 from Shirley white
I love the West coast of Scotland but your friends are right, every time I visit anyone over there I end up doing more work than at home 😂
Brilliant...well done. I enjoyed it all. And definitely Jack spaniel...xx
I remember as a 15 year old kid I went for a 2 wk holiday in the university grounds of Sterling Castle, I remember arriving on the Saturday and the first live aid concert had just started on the tv..I love Scotland and my cousin stayed on the Isle of Skye and would tell us these tails about it’s beauty and how peaceful the place was...I thought Sterling was amazing and I do plan to visit Scotland and do a tour round in the summer time so this video was a great insight, thankyou, take care now 👍
Loving the series ... spent my summers on Skye visiting family through the 70's n 80's ... am 52 n have visted sporadically in the last 20 years) mostly North end Trotternish / Snizort (Skeabost / Edinbane / Uig ) , guessing you on Loch Harport or near enough ( dont expect you to confirm .... you dont need a couple of thousand well-wishers stopping by for a cuppa lol) ... fond memories of random hikes to oh , the top of there ; fishing for supper n belligerent sheeps are all part of the charm (along with horizontal rain, 80 degree Aprils, T Rex Midgies .... its all a bit mad, beautiful n unpredictable .... wish you both the best n jealous as h3ll )
The music.......is haunting!!!
I've been to Skye once over a decade ago for one day and I loved it. Thank you for taking me along with you !
Another great episode. Love the music you write and was wondering if you have any plans to perhaps release the music you've written for all your channels as a album for us to buy? 😊
Always great to see you guys.
Such a funny advert came on as soon as you said you were going to save Jack. It was an advert for Rock+Snow with a person skiing furiously down a hill....to save Jack Spaniels lol
Have you ever taken mountaineering classes on how to navigate icy conditions? I'm sure you're careful about changeable weather. Running into an icy freeze (Julian Sands) is life threatening. For where you live, I would each carry a small ice pick and at the very least a Garman satellite signaler. Beautiful country. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Last time I was in Glen Brittle was just after I had left the Army in about 1992 and after 8 yrs was still fit and young enough to run this route but in a lot warmer weather. I take my hat of to all three of you but winter walking is always the best in my book.
