In this episode of Scotland Matters, find out about our Clydeside Regional Support Officer Nic MacLeod's recent trip to the Isle of Bute to meet and speak directly to some of the people directly involved with the running of Mount Stuart.

The first of two episodes, this podcast features conversations with Campbell MacFadyen, Mount Stuart Trust’s Chef and member of Bute Kitchen, and Louisa Davison, the Visitor Experience Manager at Mount Stuart Trust. Expect to find out about securing produce on the island, information about Mount Stuart’s Christmas Food and Craft Market, and an answer to the question "what might surprise people most about living on Bute?"

The interviews featured in this podcast were recorded in person in Mount Stuart House on 26 October 2022.

ScotLand Matters is the official podcast of Scottish Land & Estates, and is produced by Calum Henderson.
