John and Annette Seeking

 John and Annette Seeking acquired the broken down remains of Rudh Dubh and worked with the skilled builder Alastair MacColl to restore the dwelling to its current form.  John and Annette had a vision for Rudh Dubh - a  place to be shared so that others can enjoy and benefit from the location and atmosphere.  They made Rudh Dubh available for twenty years and have been careful to ensure future generations can visit. The Seekings passed guardianship to the current owners, with the request that the property continues to be shared with all who love her.
