    The house you point at 3 minutes in was occupied by what may have been the last of the '45 Jacobite highland army of Charles Edward Stuart: Peter Grant, aka Auld Dubrach. Later, he had a British soldier billeted with him, which must have made for an interesting conversations. In 1822, he was introduced to King George IV. He died aged 110.

    Hi. Nice video. Brings back memories from May 2023 when I had the privilege of staying there when I snagged the last bunk available - it was during the TGO Challenge and the place was heaving.
    Yes, full credit and kudos to the MBA on a fantastic renovation. Prior to their restoration I believe it was a ruin, uninhabitable even as an emergency shelter?
    You should start a poll with the title of Best Bothy For Bang For Your Buck, in terms of effort to get there with reward of destination!
    It's a contender for sure.
    Abyssinia? 90minutes to 2 hours easy walk in and fairly flat.
    Ryovan? 60minute easy walk in.
    Cast your votes!!

      Hi Marie, these could be poisonous to dogs. You’re best just leave the mice be. It’s part and parcel of bothying that you’ll get mice occasionally. People just need to leave the place tidy with no perishable food left behind.

    It might be Scotland but no denying that there's been a vast increase in rainfall over the last 12 months.Usually you get stable periods of high pressure but since July 2023 began we've hardly had one rain free day and pretty much constant Atlantic low pressure systems for over 12 months now .To be honest I've never known anything like it.
