Where?

If you look west from the A880 at Cot House you will see a lovely area of woodland on the banks of the Eachaig river. It often floods at very high tides, especially after lots of rain, which creates a different kind of habitat from other woodlands nearby. 

As well as the woodland, there are boggy areas and some of these have patches of invasive non-native species, such as American skunk cabbage (Lysichiton americanus). There is also a shingle beach where you can paddle in the river. Look out for dippers flying past or hunting underwater with their wings outstretched.
