As I arrive on the southern tip of the aptly named Loch Glass, the snow-capped ridge line of Meall Mór is perfectly mirrored in its still waters. “What a day for it,” I say to the only other group of hikers currently in sight in this silent corner of Easter Ross in the Scottish Highlands. “Stunning,” comes the reply, before one of the hikers adds: “So, did you watch the show? The Traitors?”

I reply with a widening smile. “Yes I did.” It’s the reason I’ve ventured up to Loch Glass, home to Culzie Lodge, better known as the Pink House, from my home in Edinburgh. And this group, it turns out, have made the same pilgrimage from Inverness, 26 miles to the south. The Traitors tourism is alive.
