Picture yourself here. Bright winter sunshine flooding your bed, a brew in hand and the day stretching out in front of you. In our bid to become paper free we have the joyous task of mapping out all our tiny wee favourite woodland trails and loading them up to @alltrails app. This way, once you arrive you can download the app for free and follow along. #dontgetlost @dellofabernethy #selfcatering #hideaway #retreat #escape #scottishhighlands #scotland Also.. thank you @wildgorse for always making things more beautiful x

Never did we imagine when buying our wee ex rental Tipi a few years back, the absolute joy it’d bring with packing it full of interesting people and their ideas. We have had such a brilliant, inspirational and eye-opening year with team @bbcspringwatch @chris.packham ; surrounded by folks so passionate about representing, showcasing and sticking up for our natural environment. It’s certainly made us look a little differently and a lot more consciously at what surrounds us. A very real testament to this experience in photo 2 where eldest, Harris dusts down our long forgotten camera and sits quietly waiting for a dipper by the river, finding paw prints in the sand. Thanks so much @chopper.smith for capturing the set up so beautifully. #wildlife #wilderness #wild @cairngormsconnect @hiddenscotland @abernethyreserve @visitcairngorms @badenoch_strathspey @visitscotland @hiddenscotland #retreatvenue #locationshoot #selfcatering #scottishhighlands
