Iain Brodie Brown has pointed out that Hannay was in Galloway, not the Highlands. I've checked the chapter called "The adventure of the radical candidate". The meeting was in a town called Brattleburn, described as "an infernal Tory stronghold". It doesn't appear to be on the map but there is a Brattleburn bothy just North-West of Moffat pictured above.

It seems we may both be right-the Dumfries and Galloway Tourist Board certainly claim the book is set in their region but Hitchcock relocated it to the Highland:

as the 'further information' explains
