- Hi!
In this video I was forced to avoid a summit camp in the Lake District due to high winds. So I headed to a remote bothy in Northumberland armed with good food, beer and a rucksack full of candles! join me for a cosy night followed by a walk around a Scottish castle the following day! Kerry

love these Bothy camps ,love the video 👍👍
@@darren4833 ah thanks! Need another bothy night soon! Thanks for watching 😀
Loved the way you knocked on the bothy door, so polite and lady like, I would have stuck a size 11 boot through the door shouting "Room for a small one" but good to see you had it all to yourself. That log must have took some sawing mind but to be fair you had it looking real cosy. Well done on leaving it spotless as well and lovely to see the heather still out on the Moors too. Nice little detour at the end and yes, it was a pretty cool place, cheers Alan
Hahaha talk about making an entrance Alan. Well, I knock because you never know what your gping to walk in on lol! It was so cosy that night, fire and the candles were mesmerising! Always try to tidy up the best I can for the next person and yeah that wood was hard work lol! Thanks for watching as always 😊
haha aye boot the door open and shout pizza delivery lol
I'll.do that next time 🤣
what a great spot to forget your troubles just for a while
Yeah I had a great time there! Thanks for watching 😀

I think the most relaxing thing in the world is communication with nature🌲🌲
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching 😊
Lovely, how happy was your gorgeous little dog @ 3.14 "I want bed".😁😁😁😁😁😁🥰🥰
Haha hes always the same! Goes mad when the tent or sleeping bag comes out because its usually dinner time after 🤣 Thanks for watching 😀

Stumbled upon your channel while doing some research on bothies to try and find a good one for 2 ladies wanting to spend a night in one for the first time 😁 loved this video and will be watching all of your other ones now. Can I ask what water purifying system you used in this video please?
Thanks, Caley 😊
Hi Caley. Glad you enjoyed the vid 🙂 I used a sawyer mini squeeze water filter on this trip but I would recommend katadyn filters for speed
I really enjoyed your video.
Glad ypu enjoyed it! Thanks for watching 🙂
Lovely chilled out video Kerry 👍
Ah thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 😀
@nightsinthewild am back from the wedding and funeral.... am so excited to get out in my new fjallraven..... though i am a little gutted that I missed the release of this video... in all my years in the outdoors I have never been in a boffy you made it look so inviting... another well made video... Xxx stay safe
Great. I hope everything went well! Hope you get out in that new tent soon. Yeah I love a bothy but just usually a flying visit for lunch so it was nice to stay alone overnight😀 thanks so much for watching as always 😀
Another great video, Kerry. I have finally got some time of work as permitted by Mrs Boss. So I am planning a three day walk and camp with Tracy, one of the other security officers and we are taking our working dogs with us as they both enjoy camping. We haven't as yet decided yet on where to go and as you know, we have far too much choice . Keep up the great work and stay safe my friend. Regards, Big Andy from Darlington.
Ah thats great! Three whole days and the worlds at your feet. Hopw you have a blast. I'm currently in the outer hebribes and going over to assynt afterwards. Sat on the ferry trying to avoid the sea sickness lol! Thanks so much for watching, take care 😊
Great video Kerry and music to match.
Looks like it's been renovated since I last slept there. I'll be cycling past next week, weather dependent, but it'll be too early in the route to sleep there on this trip.
Cheers 🏕👍
Its a great bothy, absolutely love it and often pop in on a walk. Glad you enjoyed the vid, thanks for watching 😊
very nice bothy indeed ) looked tranquil
Its lovely! Chuffed I got it to myself as well! Thanks for watching 😊
Always good when you get the bothy all to yourself , nice and cosy looking with all the tea lights. A successful trip in my book 👍 I’m off out into the woods tonight ⛺️👍 atb Dave
Ah mint! Hope you have a cracking night! I'm on the outer hebrides atm. Yeah I was chuffed to have it to myself, on a Saturday night as well. It was cosy with the candles on and fire going! Thanks for watching Dave 😊

It was beautiful 🙂
What a lovely treat that was, I wish we had bothys here on the Isle of Man but it’s to small of an area the kids would find them, but another lovely video keep them coming please ❤
Yeah its really nice to have them and I was lucky to get it to myself 😀 Thanks for watching as always 😀
Beutiful and the bofy enjoy your life
Thanks for watching 😀
Hello 👋 my friend. 👍🥾🎒🐕
Hello! I hope your doing well out there 🙂
Your smile always melts me. Always lovely songs too. As always a great video and always feels too short because i enjoy them so much. Thank you for sharing your experiences with the world. Ive just returned from my holidays abroad so have been slow to catch up 🙏
Hope you enjoyed your holidays!!! Thank you for the lovely comments as always and glad your enjoying the vids! I have a longer one coming up, just spent a week in Scotland but may take a while to edit. Thanks again for watching 😊
@@nightsinthewild thanks, i certainly did, first holiday abroad in 10 years lol. Scotland is a beautiful place, got rellies up there, looking forward to the new video from you. 🙂
@@RJ-pu8yh it was stunning! I couldn't put the camera down!
@@nightsinthewild im not surprised, its a stunning place Kerry, ive always said, if scotland had predictable weather systems, it would be a top world destination, even more than it is already, except for the midges lol, them little suckers are brutal. Im an insect magnet, the mosquitoes love me, ive no doubt the midges would too! And then there are thr wasps, im a big girls blouse when it comes to wasps lol, ever seen a grown man squeal lol 😂
Enjoyed your video.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 😀
Lovely : )
Thanks for watching 😊
Thank you for the video, I've been wanting to do a bothy stay for a while and when researching where to go I watched your video recently which sealed the deal! The dog and I went out at the weekend and it was fantastic.
Thanks again
and I was reminded of your video when I saw your entry in the bothy log book, so thought I would put a quick note of appreciate on your vid!
So pleased that the video helped, sounds like you had a blast! Thanks for watching 😊
Fab! Hope it was still tidy! Did you get it to yourself?
Nice one Kerry 👏👏
Ah thanks mate 😀😀
Another great video 👍hope your doggie doesn't have many problems with ticks. Take care both
Ah thanks for watching! Kyloe has a strong prescription from the vet for ticks because he's always out and bouncing around areas where they thrive! Never had to take one off him since he started on that medication. Thanks again 😊
@@nightsinthewild good to hear , keep up the great videos, going to the lakes in Oct/Nov hopefully can't wait to get back there, the Netherlands are very beautiful but too flat 😂 take care 👍
Another really good video. Was watching this with my 19yo daughter. Hopefully finding some inspiration for her to do similar. She thinks you're brave for going into a bothy alone overnight. I must still get myself to a bothy soon for the first time, maybe bike in. Will be looking around Kielder area. Thanks for making and sharing and hope you're doing well. Cheers, Mark
It took a long time for me to work up the courage to do a bothy, mainly due to my job, I know whats out there! This was me challenging myself tbh! Mind you I woukd have bailed if it was occupied, slept with one eye open etc 🤣 Your missing ok on the bothies! DM me if you want to know location of this one (if you dont already lol). Thanks for watching 😊
@@nightsinthewild thankyou 👌👍
Great video 👍 I’ve passed there before but never went in. Might give it a try some time 👍
Ah you need to stay. Its the best bothy in Northumberland in my humble opinion! Thanks for watching amd taking the time to comment 😊
@@nightsinthewild only downside of a bothy for me is that one of the lads I camp with is a loud snorer. At least in tents I can give a bit distance between tents 😂
@@cheviotoutdoors go on your own lol 🤣 problem solved 😊
@@nightsinthewild 😂
@@cheviotoutdoors thug life lol 🤣🤣
Another great video kerry, where is that bothy.
Its in Kielder, Northumberland. Thanks for watching 😊
Watch overniter at luib chonnel bothy great views and a waterfall mike
Yeah I have seen vids on that bothy, very remote but quite a long way from me! I usually have a yearly trip to the highlands though so it could be on the list! Thanks for watching 🙂
ive seen me stripped to the waist with the heat off the fire in winter its like a furnace when using coal🔥👌👍
Yep! Was toasty AF lol. Thanks for watching 🙂

Thanks for watching as always 😊
I might have used one of the larger saws by the door personally 😂😂😂
I did. Found my silkie easier to handle. Thanks for watching 🙂
