Can someone please explain how the planet, never mind the local environment has been improved by covering this ground with trees/scrub.Future generations will see this as environmental vandalism.

Hi Iain wow amazing, what year was this taken? We now live on the Dalchenna garden! And no trees!! Thanks
Susan Fraser
Wow at last an old one of Cromallt ❤️❤️
Amazing, used spend many a summer at my Grans house (Isobel Robertson) at Cromallt but never seen it without tree’s!! Beautiful..
Margaret Fyfe - mum any idea when this was taken, trees were always there when I was a boy?
My parents were married and bought Crom-allt in 1937. Interestingly I’ve never heard when the trees were planted. Any pictures of me as a baby (early 40’s) and the trees were quite well established. The gentleman who built it was a Dutch sea captain. Hence Dutch gables and wooden floors (according to my father)I’ve never seen any written proof!
That is just fascinating. Thanks for sharing the photos and the info.

Taymouth Castle hasn't had an easy time of it. The history since 1982 is one of millions of Pounds put in, firms going bust, hope and disappointment. Looking at it now, from the outside, it does seem forlorn and hopeless. The inside, however, has been worked on for a long time, with no expense spared. That work has not been completed after yet another company failure, but I was lucky to have a chance to look around during a tour in 2015. The tour took in the seven main rooms, the library (the absolute highlight) and also the hotel-to-be areas like the bar and some of the rooms (at that point meant for time share sales).
The recent history can be found here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taymouth_Castle#Restoration_plans_(1982_%E2%80%93_date)
The ceilings throughout are stunning - it's to be hoped that some five years of inactivity hasn't seen the work on those ruined by leakages... The library also featured a small alcove for Queen Victoria to hide in - and eavesdrop - while keeping a watchful eye over the estate.
Who'll take it on next? Just pour in millions and the rest should be straightforward! ... See MoreSee Less

I love the inside of the castle. Thank you for give us a look 👍🏻
Lovely to see this. I worked there in the mid 60s
I just love this castle and have been desperate to see inside it, brilliant pictures xxx
Thank you Wouter van Doorn. Always look at it 'lovingly' as I drive past on the main road
Wow! Amazing
It is now owned by 3 American billionaires as there home
I always wanted a look inside - thanks for sharing! j
Beautiful pics. Thanks for sharing them. My great-grandfather, Tom Bickerton was clerk of works for the Marquis in the mid 1800s. I’ve always wanted to see inside. Thanks for making it possible.

Wow! It’s stunning.
I've looked at it from afar, since I was a child. It has a very impressive exterior. These pictures of the inside demonstrate well what a hidden gem it is, to be cherished.
I was able to visit inside and just loved the whole experience.... Such splendour in a time when normal folks were in black houses... The reality of history.
Phenomenal 🤗
It’s stunning. Surely it can be made functional ... Andy Murray?
Amazing!
Beautiful wedding venue

This is at Liangarstan- Donny used to work for Dad as did Young Donnie MacKenzie who lived in the both at Liangarstan and must have been at a dipping or clipping as Doug was always Dad's "right hand man" and George was always there too. Usually there would be more there ie Duncan MacDonald Snr Leskine, Donald Campbell Ledcharrie, Gibby Christie Auchlyne, Johnny Willison Acharn to name a few and always ended up as a party !! Looks like pre "homebrew days"!!! Have a photo somewhere of them all lying on the garden in the sun late afternoon. How they got home on their tractors I dont know!!
A few more up to date photos this time, taken on a walk round the head of the Loch late afternoon in January 2018 ... See MoreSee Less
