Week in my life on a Scottish Island: Gardening and a trip to Raasay Distillery

- Hello, I’m Caroline, I live in the Isle of Skye and welcome to my RUclips channel.
This week I’m cracking on getting started turning our mud swamp into a whimsical and magical garden. We've spent the last few year working on the iteriors of our cosy two bedroom cottage, so now it's time to tackle the outside.
I also head for a gifted/pr stay at the Isle of Raasay distillery. I’ve taken my followers on Instagram and Tiktok along here many times, so it was very cool to be invited for an overnight stay and not to need to go very far for a holiday.

Thanks for watching!
Caroline, I absolutely love these longer casual vlogs. please give us more :) you’re doing great!
I think I just found my new favorite RUclips channel! Your home is insanely gorgeous and inspiring! I visited Scotland 4 years ago and absolutely loved it! Watching your videos are making me want to plan another trip soon!!
Love your channel! keep doing what your doing :)
Your video popped up on my home page and I really think you might have just become a fave of mine.
Your video was just recommended to me, and I pretty immediately clicked the subscribe button! You have a beautiful home and view, very much gives cozy vibes! I would love to see a full cottage tour for one of your videos 😊
Finally making time to watch your videos while I have my lunch and this was so lovely! Looking forward to watching the rest!
Loved it and think you got it right…, a bit of life! plus…
I’d go back to bed (and never leave) if I had that view with my coffee ☺️
Haha yes it does prove quite difficult!!
These videos are so perfect for lazy and cosy Sundays 🥰
Yasss! Love seeing you on RUclips and excited to follow along the garden journey!!! You go girl!
Thanks angel!!! xxx
Aww love this! I’ve been following you along on TikTok and insta for a while and so happy you’re on RUclips too now! Love the vlogs! As a Scottish who’s moved to northern Sweden it’s nice to watch a little slice of home! ❤
Hi just found you today on you tube, loving the content so natural and realistic, thank you 🙏 , I am heading to Skye in August for a few days so really looking forward to that. Have a friend who owns coffee bothy so will pop and see him 😊. There is so much to do and see. The view from your bed is incredible if not what to leave that view either. Do you rent out your garage? Looks so cute. Have a lovely weekend off to binge watch the rest. ❤
I love long form week in the life shares. So looking forward to seeing the garden progress and evolve!
Aw I'm glad! Hopefully be a lot more of them around here very soon!!

I loved this!!! Thank you ☺️
It’s so nice to see you over here on RUclips! 🩷
You're so welcome! I'm so glad you enjoyed it :) I'm loving creating content for youtube so far!! x
This was such a lovely watch - so excited for more long form content ❤
So pleased you enjoyed it. I'm actually loving making these longer videos :)
This was a lovely vlog! It's so nice having something else to watch. And thyme would make a great border to the path. Low maintenance, good in food and fantastic for bees.
Hello ☺. You could have heaped the grass sods (turf) and stones into a mound, tucked away somewhere, to create a wildlife mound and habitat for frogs, newts etc. Then sprinkle with wid flower seeds. Saves you moving it all twice. Do you watch Sarah and Willie on Living the Skye Life. Wonderful couple. Sending love, light and May blessings 🦋🌹🐝🌻🐞 xx
I visited Skye when I went to Scotland 7 years ago and I absolutely fell in love!! Loving the longer blog- you have such a kind, fun presence on camera! Can’t wait to see more vlogs!!
That's such an incredibly kind thing to say! I really appreciate it. Can't wait to
make more :)
@@carolinemcquistin looking forward to it!
Loved this, love the relaxed snippets of lots of different bits. Feels more real and less curated which is refreshing :)
Glad you’re enjoying that side of things 🥰
Oh my god hiiii ! I was hoping you would start a channel because I used to love your content on instagram so much, and I missed it since deleting the app ❤ so happy to see here and hope to see more of you soon❤
Helllooooo! Happy to have you join me here on youtube :)
Just discovered you on Instagram and now on RUclips so spending my day catching up on your videos!
We absolutely love Scotland, my Dads side of the family live just outside Edinburgh. Our dream is to one day move to the Scottish Highlands….so beautiful!
You mentioned there that you are originally from Stranraer….we often visit Portpatrick, we also love it there! Last time we were there was in February and we ate at a cafe called Fig & Olive in Stranraer and it was lovely! Would recommend! X
Yaay so exited for this vlog! Thank you for sharing, I absolutely adore your home, your style and of course Skye ❤️ Hope you have a lovely sunday, kisses from Germany ❤️❤️

Lovely video, if you have the time please keep them longer, suvh a joy, thanks
Love this vlog. Very cute. Subscribed and liked. I think maybe keep the garden in a different video. Like the "Garden Adventures". Summer is coming and I know a lot of people will want inspiration on what to do with their gardens 😁. Looking forward to the next vlog 🥰
I am so pleased to have found you! New sub here. I had to laugh as you sound like me and my gardening! No idea but loving it! And going for it. I posted a video the other day of my getting the garden Spring ready!? I love those bricks for the path, love the idea of them coming in a sheet. I wanted to make a path in our garden but didn’t want to have to lay every brick!? So thank you for saving my sanity! Looking forward to more video. Looks like you have a wee slice of paradise there on Skye! We visit often as love the place and lucky to live in the Highlands so not all that far! X
Nuala in the background with the frisbee is cracking me up❤
