  • Escape with us to the breathtaking highlands of Scotland on a family adventure to a remote and isolated bothy. The excitement is palpable as we anticipate the night ahead, filled with simple joys of games, laughter, and bonding.
    Curious about what a bothy is? Think of it as a rustic shelter nestled in the heart of nature, providing a cozy refuge for weary travelers seeking solace from the elements. It's a place where we can disconnect from the chaos of modern life and reconnect with the beauty of the natural world.
    As we immerse ourselves in the tranquility of the highlands, we rediscover the magic of simplicity and the warmth of togetherness. Whether we're sharing stories around the fire or playing games under the starlit sky, every moment is a precious memory to cherish.
    If you're tempted to embark on your own bothy adventure, be sure to adhere to the Bothy Code established by the Mountain Bothy Association. Check out their guidelines here: www.mountainbo...

    I would try it. What a beautiful, wild place! You can say beautiful all you like because it fits. ❤ We camp here in Australia in some semi-remote spots and no amenities, bring in all water and food , take all rubbish etc out. We love it . I really enjoyed seeing you all have an adventure that had all the famous 5 , secret 7 feels. Thank you for sharing lovely ❤❤

      Your comment has made me smile so much, thank you 🙏 I love the famous 5 and secret 7 feels 😍 I think without knowing that’s the kind of vibe Iam going for! Sounds similar there then having to take everything you need and taking home any rubbish as well. Bet it’s pretty amazing to camp in Australia? It’s high on our list to visit one day as looks wild and beautiful 😍

      @minkgin3370 I did edit out quite a bit of the inside tour because I thought a lot of people would get bored of watching more of an indept tour, however will bear this in mind on our next visit and do an indept tour maybe in a separate video. I really appreciate your feedback back and glad you still enjoyed the video

    I always thought a bothy was like a empty shed but that looked nice. I'd stay there. I don't like looking up traditional places to stay and they are all modern inside. Great video and experience for you and the girls from Victoria x

    • @thehighlandlife2023
      @thehighlandlife2023  4 месяца назад +1

      To be honest most of them aren’t this well equipped! So we were super lucky to find this awesome bothy.
      Yeah I know what you mean I like the more rustic traditional vibe.
      Thank you 🙏

    So cool.
    Only just found your channel today. Love it. 👏👏
    I've been to 3 in Wales.
    One has a big story Nant Syddion. It's near Aberystwyth.
    Only stayed a night in one so far.
    I'm travelling today but will catch up more of your videos tonight when I'm back.
    Liked and subbed.
    Keep having fun and making memories. 👋

      Thank you for watching and I hope you enjoy the other videos. Although a bit more rough around the edges I’d say 🤣🤣

      No I think they are really good.
      My early vids I would swing the camera around like a mad man.
      I'm much slower now.
      I just got a gimbal and dji mic.
      Taking it out Tues.
