Glensay Lodge

Suzanne finds comfort here despite having dreams of avalanches and snow (nightmares of Mount Ranier where she used to be). Her warm cosy bedroom has a fire dancing in the heart with the endless winter night shining black through a gap in the curtain. Tartan ones of course. There’s even a comfy chair with a book open next to some knitting. Could there be a more perfect winter scene?

Snow

From the window of her bedroom he had a view right down the glen. The snow was luminous, reflecting the muted flow of the moon and sending flickers of light across the still surface of the och. Framing the loch was snow-dusted forest and behind that the mountains rose, dominating everything -with their deadly beauty

The Snowy peaks

She couldn’t live anywhere that didn’t have mountains but Suzanne doesn’t do winter climbing anymore. There’s still plenty of low level hikes to do to appreciate the beauty of the area though.

She lived living here, in this land of mist and mountains, of lochs and legend.

Given the descriptions and feel of the place, Glenslay could be Glencoe. Mountains, lochs and legends abound here!
