If anyone has any good tips on beating the midges, please share them!

I got absolutely devoured this weekend up by Loch Latrine (edit: Katrine) (completely forgot it was midge season, so I was unprepared).

You're already doing it. They can't get in the tent. Just stay in the tent. If you didn't stake the tent down, you should be able to move around the area by hopping in the tent.

Also: You willingly are camping in an area known as Loch Latrine? Does it smell like it sounds? 🤭

Haha, that should be Katrine (thanks autocorrect).

Sounds like I need a tent with arm and leg tubes like those fume cupboards for handling hazardous chemicals, so I can turtle tent around Scotland :D
