The ruin of Dunalastair House, a baronial-style mansion, was built in 1862 by General Sir John Macdonald of Dalchosnie, the then owner of Dunalastair. Dunalastair estate had previously been the home of the Clan Donnachaidh of Scotland, which includes names such as Robertson, Duncan, and Reid, until the estate was sold in the 1850's by George Duncan Robertson, 18th Chief of Clan Donnachaidh.

The ruins now visible at Dunalatair are those of the third house to be built on the site. Alexander Robertson of Struan, a staunch Jacobite, lived in a house called the Hermitage which is thought to have been on the site of or near to the present Dunalastair House. This was destroyed by fire after the 1745 uprising.

A double tower house was then built on the site in around 1800 which was known as Mount Alexander. This was demolished by General MacDonald in the 1850's in order to build the present house. This is by far one of the spookiest castles in my opinion. Today the ruin is derelict, fenced up and inaccessible. Drones are also no longer permitted at the site.

Traditionally made soaps contain glycerine, and so they hydrate the skin during bathing, whereas many commercially manufactured soaps can dry skin out. Why? Because store-bought, commercial soaps usually undergo a process designed specifically to remove the glycerine. :)

Lavandula is a genus of 47 known species of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. It is native to the Old World and is found in Cape Verde and the Canary Islands, and from Europe across to northern and eastern Africa, the Mediterranean, southwest Asia to India. :) Today, research suggests that breathing in lavender's aroma could improve sleep quality. A systematic review of 15 studies from 2014 found that inhaling essential oils, including lavender, had positive effects in people with mild sleep disturbances. :)

Some may think that any old mattress will do, but there are few things worse than sleeping on a mattress that is causing you aches and pains. Side sleepers in particular need to be mindful of the firmness level—and if high-quality, sustainable materials are important to you, the pool gets even smaller. :)
