I can relate to this exactly.

"You felt you were going back in time to an ancient period where you might find a priest walking up there, a druidic person of some sort," continues Mr Horton-McGlone.

"You felt welcomed, you felt homely, the energy from the sun setting and it was just magical, so the stones just seem to create a vibe.

"You feel relaxed when you're within the stones and get away from daily life - the daily struggle."
