Emerging from the forest of oak and rowan trees into bright sunshine, two horse-drawn carriages cross the old stone bridge and begin the climb towards the magical Bentrowan Tree Castle. Out of the window of the first carriage, a young girl with a puppy on her knee turns her head towards the loch below and sees the setting sun shining through the rainbow mist rising from the surface.
"Look, Mollie, there's Granny MacCardigan's cottage. I will introduce you to her very soon and we can explore the loch shore with her," says Annabel.
