When you go back to some houses or fortress I'm irresistibely attracted....I'm so romantic....:-)

This is picture perfect! excellent setting. very well done!

A richly coloured shot, Rita. This is nice to look at, like most of the Scottish landscapes, outside of the big towns. Unfortunately that is all most Scots can do. Many, seeing these for the first time, wonder why they live in damp, noisy, crowded flats, cheek by jowl with thousands of others. Whoever lives in that house, in those grounds, ( if they own it ) could probably buy the entire block of flats, which I live in, in the East End of Glasgow. I, like many in the urban areas, have no central heating. No double glazing. As you say there is plenty of space, outside the cities. Most, however, is not even owned by Scots, no matter how rich. The big owners resist any attempt to free up land for housing ... They hold on grimly to their land, much of which was stolen by force, or swindled by their ancestors. Big estates are often held by absentee landlords. It is very difficult for even their tenants to buy their tied cottages. Yes, it is very, very nice to look at but it is a 'beauty' that many Scots can only dream about, or admire while passing in a bus. Indeed even as a serving police officer ( at that time ) I was stopped by officers of the Northern Constabulary, when I went on an exploratory walk, from a caravan park, some tears ago. They suspected that I was up to steal from one of the big houses!! After all I was not driving a car, and did not look like a back packer either. I must be a thief. I disabused them of this idea, and soon put them right. Despite their obvious discomfiture, I insisted on continuing my stroll.

Lovely shot. The twig across the left side adds more to the belief that this is a stolen opportunity. Well done.

I totally agree with jgkane. There are many beautiful places in Scotland but owned by a handful of people who often owned these lands by dubious mean! At least it is free to walk in the hills or beaches. Nice photo.

Beautiful photo;excellent shot!!

It's a wonderful shot of a rich and beautiful place!

An outstanding photo. You could work for real estate companies. You really know how to present property in all it's beauty. Excellent Job.

What a magnificent domain!!! The park indeed seems very beautiful!!! I would like to visit the inside of these places!!! Wonderful shot Rita!!!

Very beautiful house, the garden is huge and very lovely. As the other of this serie is shot is excellent aswell!

Being Scottish, No matter what, you must fly a flag! Very Nice presentation and photo.

Excellent and beautiful shot!!!

What a beautiful estate...really get a voyeristic feel peering through the trees like this, nice one!

So lush and green. Sigh. I think what jgkane refers to is fairly common throughout the world. But hey, were "artists" (ok, maybe wannabe artists), we're not supposed to have money.

Na da knt man's doch aushalten :o) Sche Lage, super Garten und ein germiges Haus! Fantastic, Rita!

beautiful place, a fairytale... interesting info too in the comments... lots of land for sale here if one has the bucks :]
