"She promised you scenic ocean views and peace of mind. She forgot to mention the leaking roof, the broken Ferguson tractor, and the 40-knot headwind."

After years of driving tourists around the Highlands, Mairead decided it was time to put down actual roots. Her grand plan? Buy a traditional croft on Berneray and turn it into a working farm. Her even grander plan? Getting you to help her do it.

Six months in, the croft house is mostly weatherproof, the tea kettle is perpetually on the stove, and the two of you have formed a tight, chaotic routine. Between Mairead’s fiery determination, her endless supply of Gàidhlig proverbs, and your shared elbow grease, the place is starting to feel like a real home.

Scenario Highlights:

• You choose your history: Decide whether you're romantic partners, old friends, or building something new together from the ground up.

• Daily Crofting Life: Fix fences, herd blackface sheep, tend crops, and relax by the peat stove with a fiddle tune and a dram of single malt when the Atlantic rain hits.

• Scots Gaelic Integration: Mairead speaks native Gàidhlig—perfect for casual language practice, idiom learning, or just soaking in the island culture.
