A visit to The Singleton Distillery in Muir of Ord, Glen Ord – a Highland gem with a rich past and a true community heart.

The visitor centre is a delight – comfy, spacious, and a gathering place for locals during the quieter months. From fascinating whisky-making tours to cosy chats over lunch, it’s a must-visit for anyone exploring the Highlands. Slàinte! 🥃

The Clootie Well of Munlochy: Sacred Rags, Forest Paths, and Ancient Magic

Hidden in a quiet fold of the Black Isle, the Clootie Well of Munlochy is no ordinary woodland spring. With trees draped in weathered cloth and curious offerings, this sacred place carries the echoes of an ancient world where healing, hope, and spiritual belief intertwined. Long before Christianity arrived, people made pilgrimages to such wells, seeking cures through rituals now barely remembered — but still practised, in curious modern forms, to this day.
