The Isle of Tiree, The Land below the Waves, can be found off the Atlantic coast of Scotland and is unique within Scotland's islands. Clean beaches, birds, including the rare Corncrake, traditional agriculture and the gentle pace of life has proven an inspiration to many artists. For more info visit Tiree in News links.
