Images of Morenish Mews and the surrounding area
Click here to see pictures of the Morenish ospreys.
As you can see, Morenish Mews is a year-round destination!
Just the place to sit, relax and take in the view.
Our 4 acres of garden grounds also provide plenty of opportunities for relaxation.
Our fire pit viewpoint is an excellent spot for a barbecue (and helps keep away any midges!)...
..... but our "official" barbecue is also popular with guests.
Scrabble by the barbecue.
Deep concentration!
Autumn mists and winter snows can also be viewed and enjoyed from the comfort of the cottage lounge.
The Morenish Mews property also includes a 300-metre stretch of shoreline on Loch Tay, from which guests can fish for trout and coarse fish. Great views can be had on the walk down to the loch.
The image below shows the west beach in spring, with snow-clad Beinn Ghlas in the background.
Not all of the guests who rent our rowing boat do so to fish. These guests rowed to Killin to get their newspaper!
And here are some of the non-paying guests at Morenish Mews.....
Some made a more determined attempt than others. This pine marten tried to move into the attic of our house!
The Loch Tay Ospreys at Morenish
We are grateful to Des, a guest in the Coach House apartment in July 2011, for the following images.
The adult ospreys keep lookout for unwelcome visitors....
......and a watchful eye on the nest.
Returning from a fishing trip.
Local wildlife artist, Keith Brockie, climbs to the nest to bag the chicks for ringing.

The two chicks safely on the ground.....
....but one of them is not too happy!

And finally we have to thank Dale, who stayed in the Killin Cottage in July 2011, for these great pictures of an osprey in flight and an osprey landing.
