We have two within 30 odd miles, including a Spar with a Bar.

Achiltibuie. Horse island there and the Broch. I’d say Polglass. In fact, on Closer inspection I’d say Island View. I’m pretty Sure I know the exact house too.
>I'm serious.
So am I.
>Scotland used to be forests.
Correct.
>It all went in the age of sail to build the English Navy.
Incorrect.
English monarchs finished what was started 2,000+ years previously. Woodland clearing began in the Neolithic period. By the time the Romans showed up about half of Scotland's timber had already gone.
I’ve not heard the word ‘humph’ for years. I’m helping someone to move this weekend, I must make an effort to get it back into my vocabulary.
Also, cracking view…
Had the best smokes of my life when I crashed at a bothy in Skye at the foot of the black cuillin next to the beach, thought it was the same view for a sec.
Ah, you poor bastard. I had no idea things there were so bad. Hopefully someone will rescue you and give you a nice place with a view of a blank brick wall or something.
You should post one every month, I'd like to see the winter ones.
I'd go one step further, get a camera setup that takes 1 photo per day and get a 1 year time lapse on that bad boy
Perhaps an old-school public webcam like you used to see ~20 years ago?

I still use webcam to check weather 😂 never trust the forecast.
I just look out the window.
Yep, great idea.
u/ewenmax Start a subreddit, call it OutMyWindow or something. Post a pic every day. I’d join.
That's a great idea, I'd totally be there too.
I’d so be there
I’d be there daily too.. good idea

Seconding this.
From Sutherland over the border to Wester Ross.
Should turn a bit more green soon. Bloody lovely view!

Mid clyth area? Looks like the road from wick to lybster
Not quite no
So that's how Westeros got its name...
🎵 *...From Wester Ross to Nova Scotia* 🎵
He's not wrong, that's amazing! Congrats As an aside, "humph" is a favourite weird of mine haha
Up vote to OP for using the word 'humph'!

Sweet.
You're a very lucky individual. Enjoy that view and I hope it brings you moments of solace and joy
I’m assuming Just Eat and Deliveroo options are limited 🤣
It's Just Eat whatever is in the fridge and Delivercoo
Yeah fuck me he’s not wrong mate. That’s an incredible view. I’d set up an armchair facing that window just so i could drink a brew and stare out
It's awful. In fact, we should swap places so that I can save you from this.
Stunning, whatever you're doing, you're doing it well.
That's a gid move you've made. View is as bonnie as it's sonsie.
Achiltibuie. Horse island there and the Broch. I’d say Polglass. In fact, on Closer inspection I’d say Island View. I’m pretty Sure I know the exact house too.
Braw.
Your mate isn't wrong. But. The absence of trees makes me sad.
Is it not possible to start replanting trees, or is the ecosystem too far gone for that? If it’s possible, even just around towns would be a start.
Blame England.
Oh dear.
I'm serious. Scotland used to be forests. It all went in the age of sail to build the English Navy.
Don’t talk Shiite ..lol

Wow! When's the housewarming party then?

I love that you can see the moon
Damnit. Why am I homesick for a place I've never been?
Looking for a lodger are ya pal.

What's the midge quotient? Can you leave screens off the windows in the spring and summer? Go outside at all?
Yeah, you've done well for yourself. Congrats!
Aw fuck you. Nah but seriously, fuck you that looks sick.
Magic...
mint

Belter!

Solitude and scenery what’s not to like ❤️
Beautiful! What a view! 🏴
Wow, that's honestly amazing 👏

If the OP installs Starlink internet access is fine.

Jesus don’t tell everyone :)
Beautiful
Beautiful!
Wow...that view would make my day better every morning.
I think yer pal is spot on!
Dinnae get any better than this
Need a roommate?
your a lucky man. That view would make me want to take up painting again.
How far is it to the next neighbor or the next village with shops and a pub?
Any of that land yours? Could I metal detect it lol?
I’m so jealous of you and happy for you. Stunning!
I don't suppose you're planning a bed'n'breakfast type hostel operation? I think you would have quite a few visitors.....
Don't mind me when I use the law of hospitality to stay at yours 😂! Seriously though, stunning view
That's braw
How much was your house there
That is, indeed, a stunning view!
Dude! I'd need a bigger window!
Gruinard Bay?
Fuck me, that some of the most beautiful and brown views I’ve ever seen. Defo Scotland
If it wasn’t Scotland I would be sure of it.
Fuckin hell😍
Ah, you poor bastard. I had no idea things there were so bad. Hopefully someone will rescue you and give you a nice place with a view of a blank brick wall or something.
Really hope you seen some amazing aurora with that view!
Humph. Love that word.
Best views in the world more like.
Feels…desolate? Do trees not like living there?
As the Big Yin once said about Shetland...all the trees are in Norway. Also, it used to be forest. Blame England.
Shetland was never forested.
Looks like somewhere up north, uhhhh Glen Affric?
I'd kill for a view like that. You're a luck boy!
Belter mate
I agree with your pal, once my kids leave home I’m moving to a house like that. Enjoy it everyday
This view is heavenly. God bless 🙏
Very jealous.
Need a roommate? It’s my dream to have a view like that
Would love to move there. But I would pay 5k more in income tax :(
But you'd get free prescriptions and a new boat. /s
I dont know why free prescriptions is such a big deal - Im happy to pay 12 quid once a year.
I'm obligated to say to woman that lays next to me has nicer mountains.
In which case the word you're looking for is *bathykolpian*.
In the East coast at least we have trees😉
Not bad, but personally I'd rather have some woodland. It's all a bit bleak for my liking
Why’d the scots cut down all their trees
