The Hebrides is pretty peaceful and tranquil, but only if you are not working 
long hours seven 
days a week, which was also the reality for me.

I spent nearly 5 weeks on the island of St Kilda (see 
http://www.kilda.org.uk/), where there is 
an extremely large Puffin colony, but never had time to go to see them.

I did get attacked by a 'bonxie' (Great Skua), when trying to walk past it's 
nest though!

Later I did get to visit the RSPB reserve on North Uist when I had a free 
Sunday, but no Puffins 
there ;-(

I agree with this.
