People are complaining about the English accents but that's actually pretty accurate because the aristocracy don't speak with a Scottish accent, that's for the peasants. So, apart from that just a few things:
1. A stupid, stupid story
2. Who did their makeup? I swear they shot this in one day because Blaire's makeup never changes and looks like the makeup she arrived in to the shoot.
3. Who did their hair? Please invest in some leave in moisturiser. Why did Blaire's boss have hair on day 2 that looked like she'd just pulled herself up from sleeping under the desk?
4. Who did the lighting? There are YouTube channels with better production values.
5. What was with the long chocolate shop promo in the middle?
6. Why did the lead actress hold her body and head at such unnatural angles so often?
7. Why did the director let her say everything with that snarky twinge of sarcasm? Why in god's name would that guy fall in love with this?
8. And Alistair is not the Earl, his father is the Earl. He will not be Earl until his father dies.
9. And for what reason does the housekeeper care about Blaire? Was the housekeeper pranking Blaire when she gave her that ex-rental blue dress? It didn't fit her and the nude coloured material was a different colour from her skin.
I think we all hung in there to see Scotland and they needed much, much more Scotland to make this worth it.

This movie had some strange elements in it. Harry Potter's mom plays a bad guy. What was the meaning of the white chunks falling from the sky in the penultimate scene? I could go on and on.
Highland? Scottish accents barely there - an insult at best. All aristocrats do not have posh British accents but accents of their country. They should have researched this better and find true Scottish accents.
Movie is what's to be expected from a christmas tv-film. Enjoyable enough, but not great. Cliché story...
But foam snow in the last scene!? Why????
There are a lot of bad reviews on here, which I can understand. However, the story while predictable is somewhat entertaining, for me at least. But others are right: the acting is pretty bad. The leads did sometimes feel like they were in over their heads, and Alistair's brother and Blair's boss were tough to watch. There were some bright spots in this one, however. The Scottish countryside is beautiful! And I wish we got some more of the traditional dancing.
