Boris Johnson has been pictured holidaying in Scotland.
The Prime Minister is on a short break with fiancee Carrie Symonds and newborn son Wilfred.
Pictures show Mr Johnson staying at a three-bedroom cottage and tent set-up near to the coast, although the exact location has not been revealed.
According to the Daily Mail, who first released the images, it costs more than £1500 a week to rent the spot during the peak summer season.

One tourist who saw the couple told the Mail: "It looked like any other normal family day out."
The PM has previously spoken about allowing a “brief staycation to creep into the agenda, if possible” when asked about his own plans.
Last month, he said: “There are all sorts of fantastic destinations, the best in the world, I would say.
“All my happiest holiday memories are of holiday vacations here in the UK, bucket-and-spade jobs or whatever, and I thoroughly, thoroughly recommend it, and I’m sure that people will have a great time over the summer.”
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
