No more guesses. This Scottish location is a vey remote location by UK standards and few venture out this far.

As we are so close I will give it to you! This is a much lower point than Beinn Mhor, I think it is just out of view in the photo.
This photo is looking south from the high point of Benbecula, which is Rueval (127m).

Cannot find the houses, but if that is a lighthouse on Husey, then you are probably near Akrakirkja
