Where is this? If close to me I would love to go and take a few shots to send to you.

It is not a million miles from Stirling
Up the A9 to Inverness then on towards Nairn then branch off for Cawdor to go to Clunas and it is the last croft on right hand side before going on to Drynachan
Sadly the new owners have locked the gate to drive in and the place is not the same the original house is dreadful looking now and the owners live in the converted barn and stable. When my cousin knocked on the door the folk were in the house but would not answer.

A bit long winded I know I just get carried away at you being so interested
I just loved the place and the smell of the peat fire and the daily chores
I had better stop before you get bored out of your mind
Thankyou for your interest

I am from Nairn but have been away since 1962 when I got married.
My cousin might know of them as he attended Cawdor school and lived there.
This world seems huge at times but with technology it can also be very small
If those folks are in their 70's now he could well know them .Certainly the name is a familiar name
