Interesting to see an outside perspective of Jura. I am one of the people who runs tea on the beach, glad you enjoyed the chocolate cake! That's my speciality. Edit: oh, I remember meeting you on the road to Barnhill now, what a surprise to stumble upon this!
@KingJellyfishII your enterprise is very fondly remembered by us on one of our many summer holidays to Islay and Jura -absolutely perfect tea and cake seated with the stags grazing around us, whilst overlooking the sun-kissed Inverlussa beach. Blissful! greetings from Grampian 🫖🍰👍🏻🖐🏻
@@viktorialangton5942 Hope you have a good time in jura! Unfortunately the horse box which we usually run tea on the beach from is currently unsafe, and so I don't know if we'll be able to run it this year. We may be temporarily relocating to the distillery at lussa gin, though.
George and family had a scary day boating in a weir from the Corryvreckan Whirlpool. He, son, niece and nephew were rescued by a lobster fisherman passing. Search for the more details. We went on the ferry from Stranraer over N. Eire and so on. Hello from west coast Canada!
I've been quite happy sitting in the comfort of my home, discovering and sometimes revisiting parts of Scotland, my favourite place on Earth, through your brilliant videos. I love Scotland's history, culture, the people but not so much the cold, rain, wind and midges in my older years... However, this gem of a video now makes me want to go back again and stay in Barnhill Farmhouse. I've been a great fan of George Orwell ever since I read Animal Farm and then 1984. Thank you so much.
To me Jura is Paradise. We lived here for a few years during Covid and it was wonderful. What we really miss are the people more than the setting- an astonishingly high number of top quality people in such a small population
Thanks! American “Oil brat” who had lived in Aberdeen 1975-1980. Very fond memories, particularly of the people. Beautiful country but the weather would leave anyone with PTSD😂. Still, the people made it worth it.
In 1972 I spent a week on Jura specifically to walk the Paps, at the time there were thousands of adders everywhere went. We were allowed to pitch our tents in the new graveyard at Kells which is a tiny settlement about a mile north of the pub. Sadly the pub was owned by a cockney woman who adhered to the then strict licensing laws in Scotland which meant pubs shut at 10 o’clock. A local was enterprising enough to give us a lift in his van up the north where we visited the Corryvrechan whirlpool but it was so foggy you couldn’t see anything but there were what’s called raised beaches and other interesting geological things to explore. Curiously the distillery was closed and had been for some time, I believe it reopened a few years later. Love the wee travelogue.
Excellent video Ruth, I had no idea Orwell wrote 1984 on Jura, what an amazing isolated location. Very glad I found your lovely channel, such genuine enthusiasm and wonder! I love that even when splashed with muddy water or attacked by a swarm of midges, your good humour always wins the day in your videos! (Still I imagine you have a quiet curse & compose yourself before filming!) Your composition, editing work & aerial shots are all so well done. Even if unintentionally, you are a terrific cultural ambassador for Scotland, many people (the right kind of tourist) will be inspired to visit these places you portray with such affection and sensitivity. Wishing you good luck in your pursuit of otters, love from HK!
Thank you for showing me the wild and remote island of Jura. In March 1980, when staying with a friend in Glasgow, we travelled to Keillmore on the Kintyre Penninsular, the weather was beautiful and we could look across the water at the island of Jura, it looked so quiet and empty. It was such a beautiful day which I will always remember. I have never had the opportunity to visit Jura, so thank you for making this wonderful video.
Another great video. I live in North Northumberland at Cornhill on Tweed. I go walking in the Cheviot Hills. It's Dodge the Adders up there in the summer if your wanting to see any😂😂
Oh My Goodness! This is one of the most beautiful places I have ever seen. I cannot imagine what it would be like in person to have the fresh air, wind, and smells of the ocean. Heavenly! I've been going back and watching your older videos after discovering your channel recently. Really enjoying them.
I love watching your videos, I'm addicted. Getting to see all these amazing places from the comfort of the living room 😂. You are very articulate, informative, brave, and a kind, friendly soul. Well done 👏 😃
Hello Ruth, I have just subscribed. In fact I am following you in France on your travels. I live there. Today I have taken a step back to an older video of yours. Lovely Jura. Shame about the midges in Scotland, a well know fact. Be careful with ticks you can get Lime disease from a bite.
I remember reading Orwell's "1984" as part of an English class assignment my sophmore year [USA grade 10] in high school [1965]. What a TOTAL treat to see the house that novel was written in! I just discovered your YT channel Ms. Aisling and I'm thoroughly enjoying your videos! Thank you for sharing your journey. Be well - many blessings! Cheers...
@ruthaisling nice! God bless them! Maybe I'll join them someday, By the way I'm so excited you replied to my comment! I have a huge crush on you 😉, I think you are super cute and smart Too bad I live in canada 🇨🇦 😪
What a gorgeous place. I fell in love with Scotland as a young person. Yes yes i could and would if given the opportunity to live there or in a remote place like it. Visited your beautiful Edinburgh in 23. I do plan to return wanting to hike. Your videos are helpful in making my plans. Jura is now officially on the list. Great videos. Thank you
Thank you Ruth for the beautiful scenery, culture, background music, and your lovely calming voice. This emotionally exhausted American has begun my 4 year break from US political news in all formats, in favor of relaxing travel videos, in order to calm my fearful brain and heart for what local and global nightmares are ahead. This is day 3 of my news diet and I already feel more hopeful and relaxed. Many of us who are in the (unfortunately silent) majority here are opening new You Tube accounts to reset our algorithms for beautiful and relaxing videos like yours. I anticipate a growing audience for your calm and informative videos! Scotland is next on our list of vacations. I cannot wait! Thank you so much😊
I started my news diet about 3 years ago and it’s been great. I hope yours goes well. Watching the news always made feel so negative about the world and make me feel anxious. No talk of news or politics on my channel, don’t worry!
Agreed! My wife and I are also taking a long break from media. Much thanks to Ruth for showing us there is still beauty out there. A three- year stay on Jura sounds perfect right now.
Hello Ruth, just wanted to see something relaxing to-day, so what better than to see one of your video's, and at the same time learn something new. Many thanks and best wishes. Andrew.
Loved seeing and hearing about your visit to Jura, where Orwell lived and wrote, seeing the deer, and yet abother distillery! I went in search of a distillery on the island state of Australia once years ago, down a dirt road, far into a forest in the rain. Never found it, vut did buy some in a shop in Port Arthur and also on the excellent ovenight ferry from Melbourn. Have you traveled to Tasmania (highly recommended) or elsewhere in Australia? Oh, I had also wanted to see Tasmanian Devils there, and saw several in sanctuaries.
There's a yearly Paps of Jura race. Went through the Correyvreckan whirlpool on Waverley paddle steamer in May and it was fairly lively. Calmac dont sail to Jura , its Highland council that runs the ferry.
Just found your videos. We’re doing a trip to the northern and western isles this September. Had already heard of Lusaka Gin and plan to visit. If the weather allows, will take a walk to visit Orwell’s house.
We get a few adders in England and Wales as well, but they are pretty rare. Unless you actually step on one, they would be more likely to slither away than confront you. The ones I discovered were warming themselves up under a sheet of tin.. Needless to say I replaced the tin and left alone.
Great video Ruth! I really enjoyed all the historical information you talked about. Love the stories of George Orwell. Such beautiful island! Thanks for such a wonderful tour!❤
Loved Jura, been twice on our bikes. The second time a foot passenger was £1 and bikes free, the ferry sailed for our £2 fares. Camped at the Jura Hotel and then cycled to Tea on the Beach and had two rounds of superb tea and cake each sheltering from a storm in the horsebox. Past Lussa Gin (closed that day) and on to the end of the road. Also had the feeling of being the only medieval people on earth when met the cattle grazing the beach.
It looks amazing! I'll be visiting Islay and Jura in March and found both your videos about those islands helpful and interesting to watch :) your channel is awesome!
Orwell's rented home on Jura is beautiful! When I was in high school in the early '70's, 1984 was required reading. I think I would need a bit of company to live there full time.
Hello 😉 brilliant Jura and it's paps are worth a look. 😁!!.. As for the deer we'll they can make a racket when there in the mood, 😅 George Orwells, gaff looks amazing and could easily live there while i write.. Inspirational but I agree you would need company and a wee dug called scampi🐶.. Plus music, imagine no one to bother you... Would be an interesting Friday nite with some Jura or gin or both 🤣.. Anyhoo thanks again plus you would make a great midgy destroyer... X Rob 👏👏👏👏🍻
A wonderful tour of this wild and remote Island. I ❤George Orwell's House - perhaps I will be lucky enough to stay there one day. The deer are magnificent. I once spent a memorable evening drinking a bottle of Jura whisky with a new friend, though we were nowhere near Scotland at the time. ❤
There’s a place in Sweden called Djurö, it translates to animal island (djur=animal, ö=island). The Swedish word djur also comes from the old norse word for deer. The pronunciation for Djurö and Jura actually sound kinda similar, definitely related.
That's very interesting. Djur is almost certainly cognate with Tier in German, and deer in English, in its original sense of animal - recall the line from King Lear: "But mice and rats, and such small deer, Have been Tom's food for seven long year"
Great video. I live in the Ashdown Forest in Sussex. We have adders - we are mainly heathland. so we have lizards, adders, slow worms and grass snakes and lots of fallow deer.
Hi thank you so much for your videos so realy good ever so interesting beautiful scenery lovely wild life places things to see your self so lovely 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
I go to islay maybe twice a year and have never been to jura despite it making my fave whisky. Really need to go next time but my boyfriend only wants to go to climb the paps and I'm not a climber lol xx
@ruthaisling that's my plan lol. I think we'll bring the inlaws with us and he and his dad will climb and me and his step mum will lunch, drink and read lol. He's from islay so has climbed them before so it shouldn't take that long... lol xx
Read many books on all of the islands, when I were a lad. Tried unsuccessfully to move to several. Doubt I shall see them now. Plenty of adders down our way
I've just discovered your videos, Ruth, and really enjoy them. Which do you prefer? The solitude of an island like Jura, or more populous places such as the cities of Japan?
Remarkable!... you drove past and apparently didn't notice and certainly don't mention or show the new golf course and the conversion of Jura House to a five star hotel a few miles south of the ferry port... I wonder why?
If you are scared of ticks, then I recommend that you avoid walking through ferns or long grass in the summer time. This is where they tend to hang out, as they can easily attach onto a passing deer (or you) when brushed against. A pair of wellington style boots can help keep them off and will also help with walking through boggy terrain. They are small, but you can easily see them. You are unlikely to get a disease if you remove them within an hour of their attachment. Be sure to disinfect the wound afterwards.
The adder you show in the video is probably Vipera berus, also known as the common European adder and the common European viper - in the family of adders. So there are other species also called adder in that family. The UK, like Belgium and the Netherlands, may only have Vipera berus, but one or more other species can be found in Europe, still. For example, a look-alike if you don't pay attention, in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, and Switzerland, you may bump into when there is Vipera aspis (asp, asp viper, European asp, aspic viper, 5 subspecies). A bite from this species can be more severe than from V. berus and is very painful. According to Stemmler (1971), about 4% of all untreated bites are fatal. Responsible for 90% of all cases of snakebite in Italy and it is the only mortal snake in Italian mountains. (parts from Wiki)
Great to view your visit to Jura. I stayed in one of the bothy’s a couple of years ago. Saw loads of deer and a couple so adders. Stayed in the hotel on our last night which was fad and the food was superb.
@ruthaisling really I'm very impressed by your duel personality I'm from Pakistan and I'm retired political official. You are so stunning so charming I ever seen most above than anything you are very brave. Your speaking power and way of talking is quite unique and different. Please take care of you well. My all humble prayers are with you. Stay blessed.
Great video Ruth! I love the drone shots of the landscape and the wonderful wildlife segments with the deer. The video shot from Ernie as you drive down the narrow roads is also wonderful to watch.
Ruth, a fantastic video as usual. I would stay with you in Orwells cottage. I love Scotland having lived there in the highlands in the early 80s. The Scots are just so friendly.😊
I lived in Grantown-on-Spey, Kingussie Avimore and many other wonderful Scottish highlands towns. Iam British, I have a Scottish mother.. Mc Gregor iam proud of my Scottish heritage. I now live with the Vikings in Denmark. Have you ever considered visiting Viking territory? You’re welcome to visit anytime.😊
I recall seeing Islay and the Paps of Jura on my drive from Inverrary on the way to the Mull of Kintyre....I live on the Outer Banks of North Carolina which are somewhat like the Outer Hebrides...
Great video thanks!! We spent a week in Islay last year and popped over to Jura for a day and just fell in LOVE, it is so peaceful, so stunning and just magical, really magical. We had lunch at Antlers (lovely staff and food!) and just explored. We loved it so much we had to go back at the end of the week for another visit. I would love to go back. It also has a very exclusive golf course/hotel called Ardfin, you may need quite a lot of money to play & it looks rather difficult/challenging! Great video of your trip to Jura. It is a special island and well worth a visit!
Hi Ruth, yes love your videos, and keep them coming, I was born in Scotland, Buckie was as far north as I visited, moved to Canada when I was 31 yrs old, now on Vancouver Island.
Fellow travel creator. Great channel. Planning to go back to Scotland from the US. We want to do a highland loop throughout and into the isle of Skye. Planning for 7 days what are your not to miss places?
Interesting to see an outside perspective of Jura. I am one of the people who runs tea on the beach, glad you enjoyed the chocolate cake! That's my speciality.
Edit: oh, I remember meeting you on the road to Barnhill now, what a surprise to stumble upon this!
I remember meeting you on the walk. Your chocolate cake was SO good!

As a big Orwell fan, I'm grateful to Ms. Aisling for taking her viewers to the author's writing refuge for a look.
I'm happy to hear that and glad you enjoyed it!

A reason to go back!

I've just discovered your videos, Ruth, and really enjoy them. Which do you prefer? The solitude of an island like Jura, or more populous places such as the cities of Japan?
I like both to be honest but for living I think the countryside!
Remarkable!... you drove past and apparently didn't notice and certainly don't mention or show the new golf course and the conversion of Jura House to a five star hotel a few miles south of the ferry port... I wonder why?
Amazing video, informative, and with your lovely commentary, a great Sunday viewing ❤
Thank you so much!
You are a interesting person..... God be with you in your life.❤

@@ruthaisling I am a Big Fan of you
If you are scared of ticks, then I recommend that you avoid walking through ferns or long grass in the summer time. This is where they tend to hang out, as they can easily attach onto a passing deer (or you) when brushed against. A pair of wellington style boots can help keep them off and will also help with walking through boggy terrain. They are small, but you can easily see them. You are unlikely to get a disease if you remove them within an hour of their attachment. Be sure to disinfect the wound afterwards.
I would love to live in a location like this its always been my dream to live this kind of life style what an iconic location absolutely stunning ❤.
スコットランドの自然の美しさが良くわかります♪それと同時にしょうたさんと一緒に培った撮影の技術が(ドローンでの撮影等)素晴らしいと感じます😊
日本もスコットランドも小さな島国、今後は広大なアメリカの旅に向けて、お互いRUclipsrとして稼いで共同して活躍するのではないかな？と、少し勘ぐりましたw
出来ればそうあって欲しい😅
僕のチャンネルのビデオを見てくれてありがとう。
応援ありがとうございます！
nice they actually have some trees there xD
Thanks Ruth great video. Please keep the great work going.
Thanks for watching!
Waving to the right as I head to Campbletown to say hello to Mr. Mac! 😍😎
The adder you show in the video is probably Vipera berus, also known as the common European adder and the common European viper - in the family of adders. So there are other species also called adder in that family. The UK, like Belgium and the Netherlands, may only have Vipera berus, but one or more other species can be found in Europe, still.
For example, a look-alike if you don't pay attention, in France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, and Switzerland, you may bump into when there is Vipera aspis (asp, asp viper, European asp, aspic viper, 5 subspecies). A bite from this species can be more severe than from V. berus and is very painful. According to Stemmler (1971), about 4% of all untreated bites are fatal. Responsible for 90% of all cases of snakebite in Italy and it is the only mortal snake in Italian mountains. (parts from Wiki)
Beutiful scenery wow and those old Volcanos thats what they are fantastic 👏 ❤
Scenery there is so lovely 😍
昔から田舎のパブに行って地元の方々と交流をするのが夢の一つです。機会があったら紹介してください。現地の言葉が話せない事と日本人という事で疎外されるのではないかと心配です。😅
今後のビデオでパブを紹介しようと思う！
スコットランドの人たちは、あなたが訪れることを喜んでくれるだろうし、とても歓迎してくれると思うので、どうか心配しないでほしい！
Google翻訳があなたの味方です！
@@ruthaisling ありがとう。😍 希望が出てきます。 フェアフォード、ヘンドン、レイクンヒースなどの航空祭に行きたいですし湖水地方や今回の動画にある様な地方にも行ってみたいですね。夢は広がります。
Great to view your visit to Jura. I stayed in one of the bothy’s a couple of years ago. Saw loads of deer and a couple so adders. Stayed in the hotel on our last night which was fad and the food was superb.
Sounds great! Jura is just fabulous 😍
Nice to see you here again super amazing lady ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😃
@ruthaisling really I'm very impressed by your duel personality
I'm from Pakistan and I'm retired political official.
You are so stunning so charming I ever seen most above than anything you are very brave.
Your speaking power and way of talking is quite unique and different.
Please take care of you well.
My all humble prayers are with you.
Stay blessed.
Wow what a beautiful place! 14:18 surely it feels like a planet that no one exist
Always loved Scotland especially. Seen the folks in there in their skirts it's great to think about. Scotland close I'll I get to it on tv😮
Great video. Jura is now on my bucket list. Best wishes from Michigan, USA.
You definitely need to visit!
I went there last summer with a friend of mine who lives near Falkirk. Its an amazing place. You shuld have gone to the bothy!!
It’s such a beautiful island 👍
Great video Ruth! I love the drone shots of the landscape and the wonderful wildlife segments with the deer. The video shot from Ernie as you drive down the narrow roads is also wonderful to watch.
Thank you for watching David, I'm happy to har you like the drone shots and driving videos!
Ruth, a fantastic video as usual. I would stay with you in Orwells cottage. I love Scotland having lived there in the highlands in the early 80s. The Scots are just so friendly.😊
Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
😊
Thanks for replying 😊
I lived in Grantown-on-Spey, Kingussie Avimore and many other wonderful Scottish highlands towns.
Iam British, I have a Scottish mother.. Mc Gregor iam proud of my Scottish heritage.
I now live with the Vikings in Denmark.
Have you ever considered visiting Viking territory?
You’re welcome to visit anytime.😊
😊
I recall seeing Islay and the Paps of Jura on my drive from Inverrary on the way to the Mull of Kintyre....I live on the Outer Banks of North Carolina which are somewhat like the Outer Hebrides...
Just discovered your channel and have really enjoyed these videos of Islay and Jura. Thanks for sharing. From Cape Town, South Africa . 🇿🇦
Thank you very much for watching all the way from South Africa!
_"Getatable"_ ... well that's a new one. Never heard that word before. Thanks for the education Ruth.
Haha, I hadn't heard it before either but I like it!
@@ruthaisling 13:38 ... George Orwell obviously liked using unusual & rarely used words.
Hey Ruth, a lovely video, and island. Thanks for bringing us along !
Thanks for watching!
Great video Ruth, love the isolation and views of the islands. Quite envious!
Thanks!
お久しぶりです。お元気で何よりです。
The magnificent scenery reminds me of the movie "Run Wild, Run Free"(『野にかける白い馬のように』).
Looks so beautiful. The scenery is really brought to life by the wonderful photography.
Thank you Mark!
Great video thanks!! We spent a week in Islay last year and popped over to Jura for a day and just fell in LOVE, it is so peaceful, so stunning and just magical, really magical. We had lunch at Antlers (lovely staff and food!) and just explored. We loved it so much we had to go back at the end of the week for another visit. I would love to go back. It also has a very exclusive golf course/hotel called Ardfin, you may need quite a lot of money to play & it looks rather difficult/challenging! Great video of your trip to Jura. It is a special island and well worth a visit!
Thank you for watching and nice to hear you had such a good time there!
Another great video Ruth, I certainly would love to visit this island as it looks so nice.
You should..It is very special!
Hi Ruth, yes love your videos, and keep them coming, I was born in Scotland, Buckie was as far north as I visited, moved to Canada when I was 31 yrs old, now on Vancouver Island.
Fellow travel creator. Great channel. Planning to go back to Scotland from the US. We want to do a highland loop throughout and into the isle of Skye. Planning for 7 days what are your not to miss places?
magnificent island, I must concur with my fellow viewers, yours vids are very good
Thank you very much!
Famtastic energy another great vid ruth
Glad you enjoyed it!
