This film is from the Tony Jackson collection and contains footage of Tony and Eileen Jackson on a camping holiday in the Scottish Highlands in June 1963. There are shots of their tents, the couple washing in a river and shots of the surrounding countryside and mountains.
The film opens with some sheep in a field in the highlands and then a panning shot which shows a small tent in the field. A woman comes out of one tent and looks at the camera and a man comes out of the other tent and also looks at the camera. In the next shot Eileen Jackson is lying on a blanket in the sun, and Tony jumps down beside her and they kiss.
They both climb over a wall and walk across a field towards a camera; Eileen dries her face in a towel and then hides her face from the camera. Following this are shots of Eileen leaving her tent in her bathing costume and climbing down onto the rocks beside the river. She washes some dishes and then climbs around in the water and brings back a kettle full of water; then she sits on the rocks and poses for the camera. Following this are shots of the two of them washing themselves in the river.
There are some shots of a big, stone house and then panning around to take in the gardens and mountains behind the house.
