Bamff House (6 of 6)
The current owners of Bamff House are Paul and Louise Ramsay.  I haven't been able to work out their exact connection to the main line of the family, but I think it must be through a female connection.  Along with their daughter Sophie, they are passionate 're-wilders', taking a particular interest in the reintroduction of beavers, a species that was hunted to extinction in the 17th century.

The Cateran Trail, one of Scotland's long distance walking trails, passes the back-door of the house, where there is a small shop, where modern day transiting caterans can pay (a novel concept for caterans) for their goods using an 'honesty box'!

(There has been a fair bit of opposition to the Ramsay's reintroduction of beavers, particularly since some have inevitably escaped and taken a liking to people's fruit trees and gate-posts.  Personally, I think it's a good thing, particularly as my fruit trees and gate posts are 12 thousand miles away in Australia!  The reintroduction of wild pigs I am a bit more dubious about.  I have seen the damage that feral pigs can do!)
