Photos and the City

Slow travel & photography

Goodbye, mainland Scotland, and hello to the Isle of Tiree!

Arriving in the Isle of Tirre and this was my view from Drovers Cottage.

Tiree is the most westerly island of the Inner Hebrides and is also known as the Sunshine Island. It is s mostly low-lying, with wide open skies and sea views in all directions. There are just 3 hills on this flat island.

It is very sunny and due to the warm Gulf Stream, winters are usually warmer than on the mainland, and summers can be warm and balmy.

But don´t forget the wind!

Tiree is also known for its many options for watersports, including all types of surfing.

Drovers Cottage – I was staying in this lovely thatched cottage for a week in Tiree. And just after a few days, I booked it again for the following year.

The first photo is one of the views from the cottage.

Tiree is also a paradise for beaches and meadows; the whole island feels like a big meadow and beach.
