While the south bakes, the weather has been cooler and damper in the highlands over the past couple of weeks, giving us all the swirling, misty atmosphere you could wish for.

Long before the American-style Hallowe’en gained traction, we marked the day, with terrifying tattybogles made from turnips, in place of jolly pumpkin jack-o-lanterns. Every Hallowe’en, our mother would have us scanning the sky, searching for raggedy witches among the tattered clouds, and listening for their cackling. Our highland skies are wild and savage, and any self-respecting witch would fly through them joyfully.

The Kernsary walk from Poolewe, past the beautiful loch with heart-stopping mountain views, is one we return to time and again. Including the time we all piled out of three cars to discover that we’d left one of the teenagers behind - everyone thinking she was in another car!

This clip of me getting battered by Storm Floris back in August is an excuse to tell you the story we heard from the Rose Cottage guest who left yesterday.

‘Just to let you know Storm Amy was quite violent but Rose Cottage is unscathed. We left at 4:30 am and met another car on the road... they’d left at 3am but got turned back by fallen trees along Loch Maree. They’d gone home and fetched a saw back with them, so between the four of us we sawed the branches and trunks and dragged them to the side of the road and cleared a passable way through to Kinlochewe. We were then delayed at Garve because the level crossing barriers had come down and the red lights were flashing. An hour and a half later we decided to drive through anyway and risk the fine and points.

All in all, the 8 hour drive home took us nearly fourteen hours.

Still. Looking forward to returning in November. 🙂

Now THAT is the kind of plucky guest we get at Rose Cottage!
