Couple on holiday in Scotland 'can't believe luck' after seeing Northern Lights so early in the year

A couple holidaying in Scotland have been left delighted after spotting the Northern Lights so early in the season. Michelle Brennan, 49, and her partner John, 55, were given an extra bonus on their trip to their new holiday home in Caithness when they spotted a green glow on the horizon.

The pair, who live in Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, bought the holiday home in the village of Latheron in November after coming to Scotland every year on holiday for the past two decades.

"We mainly spent our time on the west coast," explained Michelle. "We used to visit Glendale on the Isle of Skye as we knew the Northern lights were frequently seen there in the winter months. We were never lucky enough to see them."
