Old Leanach Cottage on Culloden Battlefield in Scotland is believed to be the only remaining building from the battle in 1746 The cottage is located on the northeastern side of the battlefield and is one of the last surviving examples of the single-story thatched buildings that were once common in this area. The small cottage stands alone today, but historic maps show that this area was densely populated in the past; the land was divided in smallholdings and the local population was engaged in agriculture. There were two other buildings next to it. One was a barn which, a story says, it was set on fire by government troops in order to kill about thirty wounded Jacobite soldiers that were seeking refuge in the barn. The other one was probably a stable.

The Battle of Culloden Scottish Gaelic: Blàr Chùil Lodair) was the final confrontation of the Jacobite rising of 1745. On 16 April 1746, the Jacobite forces of Charles Edward Stuart were decisively defeated by Hanoverian forces commanded by William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands.

Sometimes the only way to really, truly switch off from work and totally relax is to get as far away from it all as possible. Somewhere that takes ages to get to, with limited contact with the outside world. Maybe where your closest neighbour can only be reached by boat.
