Melfort

On Scotland’s west coast, Melfort is a stretch of lochs and islands where restoration is reshaping the land and sea. Beneath the surface, oyster beds are being rebuilt and seaweed farms are taking root, helping to clean the water while creating new habitats. In the hills above, rewilding projects are returning native woodland to slopes once cleared, drawing back red deer, pine martens, and birdlife. Melfort may feel peaceful, but it’s also a place of ecological resilience and recovery.
