Sandwood Bay, at the far North Western tip of Scotland near Cape Wrath, is one of the most beautiful beaches in the UK. This wild, isolated place inspired the Scottish fiddle player and composer Duncan Chisholm’s album “Sandwood”. He takes Matthew on the four-mile walk from the nearest road to experience the stark beauty of white sand, ancient rocks and rolling waves, telling stories of storms, hauntings and the remains of a Viking longship hidden under the beach. Then it’s out with the fiddle to hear some of the music inspired by Sandwood.

Since I first heard tunes from Sandwood, I wanted to go to Sandwood Bay. I promised myself next time I would go to Scotland, I would go there. I was there on Monday the 5th of August, and listening to the podcast brought me back..... Thank you for a wonderful podcast with lovely stories, tunes and more.....
