    Used to play here as a kid!! Remember getting caught out by the tide and having to spend what seemed like HOURS waiting for it to go out again so we could get back home to Corstorphine. Recall my parents didn’t seem too bothered that I’d been away for about ten hours!! 😂😂😂 Happy days 😊
    Great video and took me all the way back to my childhood. Seems so long ago but also just like yesterday as well.

    I've been following your videos for a couple of years, Steve, and decided to go back and watch them all from the very first. What a great decision! So interesting to see how your channel has developed from a great start to phenomenally compulsive viewing. Also, so good to see Alicja appearing initially on this early video.

    Fantastic. Me and my daughter visited Edinburgh 3 years ago and we camped in the car park there for 2 of the nights. Went out to cramond, just made it back over the causeway and also found the little treasure box hidden in the stone wall.

    In 1975 my friend and I found an old chest buried in the Northern tip of the island full of Spanish Gold coins. We grabbed a handful each then moved the chest to Bury in a different spot. This day was the final day of the schools summer holidays, so it was 2 weeks before we got back to the Island, and guess what?
    Yep we couldn't find the place we had buried the treasure in cause we didn't think about drawing up a map, no phone cameras back then. I don't think it was ever found, because there was a lot of Gold coins.
    2 yrs later we found a silver candle stick, which had been stolen from the Dalmeny castle eastate in 1901.

    What’s not to like Steve? Traffic free, silent, and beautiful!
    I think your normal content just got a wee bit wider!!!

      Cheers! I really used to take all these places for granted, but I appreciate it so much more now I’m older (and wiser?)

    What fun! This was great content. I'd put a tent inside one of those fortifications if the weather was REALLY miserable.

      Absolutely! I was amazed at how clean they were. Cheers for watching :)

    Very seldom could you find an island so near the city and yet very solitude, serene and beautiful. The shot of the Robin 4:00 was awesome. Well done, Steve.

    A really peacefull video. During lockdown here in Devon, I explored much more of the area where I live, and found some wonderful places off the beaten track. I found one such place within walking distance from my home, and it was a truly wonderful experience to sit on top of one of the highest points in Mid Devon, between Exmoor and Dartmoor with Sidmouth in the back ground. Only the Buzzards circling above. Like you I am enjoying what is local.

      Sounds like heaven! I haven’t been down there for years, long overdue! Yeah, discovering local places is certainly the silver lining to not being able to travel. I wish you well

    Amazing how we overlook these lovely wee places on our doorstep. Not sure about the ghosts but I think in Cramond Island after dark I would maybe have a respectful attitude towards them.

    What a lovely film you made of your excursion. So professionally done. I felt it should be on television (and so much better than what is available too). So relaxing. I felt I had my own mini escape.

    Excellent. Hope that selfish couple made a massive contribution to the RNLI. Wander how many people over stay in the pub and can't get back? Thanks again.

    • @steve-marsh
      @steve-marsh  4 роки тому

      Cheers John, agreed! And luckily the pub was cash only so we could only afford to stay for one! :)

    The Tides Times are displayed on the board before you set foot onto the island!!! It even warns you not to get marooned!

    Discovered your channel by searching mooth-enhancing posts concerning our most famous destination since years : Scotland. Your posts are relaxing, no,silly music or stupid comments, in contrast they’re informative, especially this one, flew many times over this island,, and i’ve seen it now through your efforts & discoveries. Thank you for that ! Keep it safe please ! Windy greetings from Antwerpen, Flanders 👍

    Great video and virtually the whole island to yourselves (except for the birds) . I would imagine that is a very regular call out for for that RNLI team but you are right I would be too embarrassed to call them out for that ,you just wait and bite the bullet until the tide turns around.

      It was such a great day and overnight, didn’t imagine it would be so beautiful and empty! Thanks for watching our wee adventure!

    UA-cam randomly decided that we should watch this video from two years ago. We have happy memories of Cramond Island. Hope you had a Sam Smith's pint in the pub!
