    Thanks for this lovely video. It’s a shame Steve Hannah the keeper of the tower didn’t know you were visiting as he would have opened it up so you could look inside. I’ve visited several times and the inside is fascinating. There’s even a small prison cell adjacent to the incredible period kitchen.

    Absolutely beautiful! So rustic & charming! As well as being situated on such a beautiful Loch setting! I love St Conan's Kirk. It is one of the most beautiful, quaint & charming wee Kirks in Scotland. It is actually much larger than it looked in other videos I had seen. You're filming & footage here, as well as your interesting Commentary, really did it proud! It truly is so impressive in every way, both inside & out! The Architect did an outstanding job of designing & building this amazing wee Church. Such remarkable Workmanship! Moreover, the History of St Conan's is also really fascinating & so intriguing! Thank you for sharing this delightful experience at this truly unique & charming Old Kirk...St Conan's! Blessings to you!
