Lovely words from walkers
‘We are still raving about your walk!’
Christine
‘We brought home lots of lovely memories of a wonderful holiday on Colonsay, made all the more special by our guided walk. Although we are seasoned hill-walkers, it is unlikely that we would have ventured to the incredible coastal vantage points that Lizzie expertly led us to. Our son lives with a Learning Disability and loves the outdoors. It’s uncommon to find someone so accommodating and understanding of people with disabilities, but Lizzie is a natural. She taught our son to navigate with a compass and engaged him with all sorts of natural wonders that we encountered on our walk. Finding the pellets of short-eared owls was his highlight. For my husband it was learning about the archaeological investigations near the croft. I was spell bound by the scenery. It was a delight, thank you for a great day out!’
Steph & family
‘Thank you so much for today, it was a really lovely experience. I think our daughter will be looking at lichens for years to come!’
Dave & family
‘We saw amazing bird cliffs, and Lizzie shared her interest in archaeology. I found myself looking at the landscape with a different perspective. What a creative and fun way to share the island with visitors. Thank you!’
Annie
As we wait to board the ferry, just wanted to say thank you so much for taking us out for the walk on Wednesday! You helped us see the island in a totally different light, and it was all so interesting! Chris has been peering at lichen everywhere we go! Thanks so much again : )

About me
I’m a crofter here as of recent years – alongside community project work. Before this, I worked with groups as a community gardener, grew for a hotel kitchen, and a variety of other things!
I’ve always enjoyed an adventure, whether on foot or by bike, with a tent, bagging a summit or exploring a coastline. I’m delighted now to be able to share the wild places here on my doorstep with others!
I hold the Hill & Moorland Leader qualification through Mountain Training Scotland, with outdoor first aid training and insurance.
