On Friday 12 May, we celebrated becoming ‘visitor ready’ with the official opening of the excellent woodland footpath created by Andrew and Judy Peters, and Magnus Burd.

The teatime event was our way of thanking everyone who had played a part in helping us with our project.

Sarah Lewis of the John Muir Trust on Skye kindly officiated and opened the beautiful natural gateway created by Andrew.

We’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has worked here since October 2016, with particular mention for

• Brian, Iain, Kevin, Ross, Roddy, Andrew, Chris and John-Angus from MacQueen’s builders. We will miss the excellent company of our builders;
• The various sub-contractors for certain parts of the new build;
• Andrew the architect from R.House Architects, who designed our house extension and the Room in the Wood and who has monitored progress throughout, and
• Andrew, Judy, Magnus and Alasdair who have attended to the creative landscaping and tree shaping.

Thank you very much everyone!
