Our thanks go out to all the emergency services that brought this under control, and we are so pleased no one was physically hurt. Our hearts sit with the many businesses that will be affected by this event for many months to come.

It's not just discarded bbq's or ci******es. A bottle can reflect sunlight and easily start a fire, so please take your litter home.

🔥 Extreme wildfire risk across Scotland 🔥

An extreme wildfire warning is in place across Scotland from Friday, 11 July, until Monday, 14 July.

We want you to enjoy Scotland’s great outdoors in the sunshine, but we have a few tips to help keep everyone safe:
✅Avoid BBQs and campfires
✅Never discard ci******es or litter
✅Stick to marked paths and avoid dry vegetation
✅Call 999 if you spot signs of fire

Fires can ignite quickly and spread fast during this period, so we urge you to use caution and avoid using any items involving a naked flame to help reduce the risk of wildfires.

We live in a beautiful place that doesn't always have good street lighting - if any at all. Do your guests need providing with a simple plug in torch to ensure they can evacuate safely? These are an inexpensive way of solving a problem for most small sleeping accommodation providers.

Dark evenings and cosy nights inside mean an upturn in the use of candles. No matter how pretty, or pleasant smelling, these should be avoided in self catering properties.

Do you have bottled gas for heating or cooking? When was the last time you had your system safety checked. For anyone renting property (holiday or tenant), this should be done every year.

Pipes degrade (frost, erosion, damage) and gas can seep out and collect in areas causing a potential explosion risk.

Stay safe - get it checked.

We don't see many of these on the island but if you do have one it should be maintained. Hoses perish, reels jam and valves get stuck. The water pressure should also be checked.

We all know how noisy a smoke detector alarm can be - after all it needs to wake you up if needed. So we do understand when they are ripped out if they won't stop and have gone faulty. The problem arises when they aren't repaired or replaced.

Not sure how many you need or where they should be placed? Get in touch.
