- Опубліковано 10 вер 2024
- Cal Mac ferry to Rum for the afternoon on a Friday in June from Mallaig. Booked tickets online £10.30 return. A leisurely walk around Rum seeing Kinloch Castle, the Otter Hide and many other interesting sights. Let me know if you've been or are considering it. Lots of great hikes there but I wouldn't be doing that on my own.
Great video, on my list of places to go, bit of trivia, Kinloch castle was built using sandstone from my home village of Corrie on the Isle of Arran, the sandstone quarry now long closed and a small housing estate there now. 🙂
Was it, that's interesting to know, nice one island to another.
I visited Arran years ago but need to go back. What's the one thing id need to see while there do you think? Thanks for messaging and telling me you enjoyed this video by the way, I like to know who's watching and what they think. Iona x
@@IonaMacinnes Aw way to much to see and do here to choose one, everything from eating, drinking, low walks, high hill walks, coastal stuff, castles, dinosaur footprints, to name just some of the stuff to do, but maybe see if you can find the doctors bath in Corrie, very well engineered by the same quarry men who cut the stone for Kinloch castle, very quirky
@markbunyan902 I look forward to visiting again, thanks for the tips! Ix
Another amazing video 😊 Thanks for sharing 👌
hello, oh thanks very much @Trond_travels, glad you enjoyed. Ix
Had the best fish and chips ever in that Cornerstone restaurant. Really good video 👍
Ah amazing, ha was so good, great weee find! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for saying. Ix
Fab video, you make me smile! What a huge shame about the castle, accomodation there for so many! How weird it's still full of furniture. Looking forward to Eigg, I saw a docu about it, what a great story. Pity all the isles are not owned by the people who live on them. I think there's one for sale now that has farms & people living there, horrible that someone can just come along & buy the whole isle, ugh.
awe you make me smile too writing such a nice comment, thank you. I'll continue to visit all the Scottish Islands and film as I go so it's good to know there are people who enjoy and look forward to seeing the videos and places I visit as much as me. I'm learning as I go, it's great fun and a great way to pass time. Ix
That was interesting I haven’t been to any of the inner islands.Enjoyed it all.lucky you.
Im glad you enjoyed it. It's so good that I can go, film it and show you so you can see all the places. Canna and Mallaig next, then back to Vietnam for some Hoi An lanterns and tailoring. Ix
Brilliant......
Aye...will need to get out to those islands...
Been wanting to do this for a while...........
You just need to put time aside isn't it. Ive just booked to go back to do Eigg and Muck early July otherwise something else would get in the way. Pretty cool wee islands to explore. Get it booked! Iona x
Thanks for showing us around Iona.
Hi del, you're welcome. Nice to see places you perhaps want to, but can't get to for whatever reason. Canna coming soon. Iona x
Love your videos! Bruce from Vancouver
Bruce that's so good of you to say, and I'm so glad you do. I love the process of making them so it's nice you're seeing them too!
how strange, I am doing this tomorrow. 12th June 2024.
Ha, brilliant, where else are you going? I only managed Rum and Canna this time but want to do Eigg and Muck in a few weeks. Hope you have a great time. Ix
I am captivated by your accent where the heck are you from? I ,ove Rhum BTW
Hi Robert, thanks for messaging. Rum is pretty cool isn't it. I'm from the Isles of Lewis so that's the accent you couldn't place. Where are you from? People mistake me for Welsh, Irish and even South African at times. Thank you for watching. Ix
@@IonaMacinnes definitely not Welsh lol I spend some time in Wales with my kids Originally I'm from London but I've been in Scotland climbing its beautiful mountains for nearly 50 years and will stay here forever thanks for replying and many many more happy trips
oh amazing, have you ever been to Lewis or Uist? I'm going to go to Wales soon and see if any Welsh think I'm a local, haha. Cheers the now. Ix
How about showing us around South Uist?
Bruce, what a great idea. Ive only been doing places my Mum and I have never been to but now opening it up to everyone that's what I should do. Good craic, good request!! Lets see what the weather is like for filming this weekend, today the ferries are all off, its blowing a hoolie. Iona x
@@IonaMacinnes Looking forward to that!! Mike MacInnes has been telling me about it for years. 😊
Great videos. Spoiled to some extent by poor audio quality. Treat yourself to a decent microphone with noise cancelling and you will see a big improvement.
Keep up the good work.
Hello, You're so right. Trouble is here the wind is every direction and it's sooo hard to avoid, but I should get a mic for everyone's sake. Thanks, glad you enjoyed them and thanks for messaging, I appreciate your honesty.
Scottish weather is not easy to deal with. Your really entertaining videos could be made even better. Good luck!
@@A4DJL microphone ordered so thank you for prompting me, hope I have it before my trip to Eigg and Muck this weekend. Cheers, Ix
@@IonaMacinnes. You are making me feel guilty now for causing you this extra expenditure! The audio wasn’t really too bad.
I have now subscribed to your channel so will look out for more of your excellent content.
Good luck.
@A4DJL don't be daft, not at all you've only helped me! Think I just needed someone to comment on the audio, I kinda knew it myself anyway. And thanks sooooo much for subscribing, you're my 216th subscriber, how cool is that ha. Ok, let's see if the boat goes tomorrow, I'll get my mic. Blowing a hoolie and all ferries are off; the joys of Island living and travelling. Ix
