Description A wide view of Blaven (Bla Bheinn) which is an outrider of the Cuillins on the Isle Of Skye. I would love to live in that white cottage and have that view every day. 

"This is a wild land, country of my choice,
With harsh craggy mountain, moor ample and bare.
Seldom in these acres is heard any voice
But voice of cold water that runs here and there
Through rocks and lank heather growing without care.
No mice in the heath run, no song-birds fly
For fear if the buzzard that floats in the sky."

from the poem Rocky Acres by Robert Graves
