One of the places we visited in Skye, was the wonderful forest garden Rubha Phoil. It's a lovely place to wander round, being a delightful mix of woodland and coast, with vegetable and herb gardens. There's a wonderfully eccentric feel to it, with paths covered in a variety of materials, including one stretch being covered in sheeps fleeces. There is an otter hide, delightfully homemade (watch out for the nails!) overlooking Seal Island. We were entertained by the seals, who were swimming and playing but we didn't see an otter.
Beautiful to see and what a wonder to see the woman emerging from the tree into the foreground.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment on my Windows post. Actually, I have thought about writing of the moment. Now might be the time.
This looks like a beautiful, indeed almost mystical place. Lovely!
ReplyDeleteAs always wonderful photos. Love that moss! And what a lovely spot to just sit and admire the wonderful woods around one.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful indeed. I've been watching a fabulous show on the TV in which some bloke tours the world looking at all the greatest gardens. India, Argentina, Japan. You would enjoy it greatly I think, I do.
ReplyDeleteLovely pictures
ReplyDeleteThanks for the photos of what I am sure is a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteMakes me wish I was going. Just heard from a friend returning from Mull who saw sea and golden eagles.
ReplyDeleteYou saw seals! That's so wonderful!! I think they're really cute creatures, love their faces :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a place to look out for. I must have been so close last year as we had tea on Armadale pier, and visited the nearby art gallery... We loved the woodpeckers in the grounds at Armadale.
ReplyDeleteJuliet,
ReplyDeleteHow nice to find your lovely site, dedicated to the beauty of this earth. I appreciate your photos of the Isle of Skye. :-) I have heard so much about it but have not witnessed the beauty. Thank you for sharing your soulful experiences with us in this way. I'll be back! I feel like I am witness to a gorgeous travelogue...
Have you ever been to Iona?
Blessings,
Jan
