Almost integral to its landscapes, it wouldn’t be right to talk about Scotland without mentioning its centuries-old historic castles. Dotted between lochs and glens, you’ll find some of the most striking castles in the world here - and, fortunately, many still stand impressively tall. The thought of owning one is an alluring prospect for many. Brankstone Grange Castle in West Fife is a wonderful example of a historical castle which has been wonderfully updated to suit modern living. Originally designed by David Bryce of Edinburgh, with later additions by Sir R R Anderson, it’s now been renovated throughout by the current owners.

Loch Ness is one of the most famous bodies of water in the world. References of the famous ‘Nessie’ appear throughout Scotland’s history. But, if you look beyond the myths and legends of its waters, you’ll find yourself in one of the most beautiful parts of Scotland, the Highlands. Imagine looming mountains, densely populated forests and waves of purple heather surrounding you at every turn. Loch Ness View  embodies its name, enjoying breathtaking views across the water and is just a short distance from Dores Beach on the shores of Loch Ness.

With its cobbled streets, Georgian townhouses and an impressive historic castle at its heart, Scotland’s capital is full of charming buildings which you cannot help but admire. It’s little surprise that The Old Town has even been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This double fronted period house would be a great home if you want to enjoy the most of city living – it’s located in the popular area between The Grange and Mayfield, within walking distance of the centre of Edinburgh.

Scotland is lucky to have plenty of wonderful, remote villages tucked away behind mountains, alongside stretches of river, or scattered beside lochs. These landscapes transform throughout the year - from winter snowscapes to long summer nights, which means your view will never stay the same for long.

Alton Albany Farm is found in the picturesque conservation village of “The Barr”, surrounded by vast, open spaces which really make you feel that you’re off from the beaten track here. The nearby Galloway Forest Park has been designated by the International Dark-Sky Association as only the fourth Dark Sky Park in the world, and the first in the UK, named a Gold Tier Park for its breathtaking and rare stargazing conditions. Sounds idyllic, doesn’t it?

If you’re hopeful to move to one of Britain’s coastal towns but want to get a bit more bang for your buck, Scotland is the place to look. There’s 3,000 miles to choose from and each stretch is unique. Look north and you’ll find dramatic cliffs, while to the west there’s miles of white sandy beaches. It’s here that you’ll find grand castles, quaint fishing villages, spectacular beaches and, of course, golf courses. Located on northwest coast of the highlands is Arisaig Marina, offering an opportunity to purchase an established, profitable business in one of the Uk’s most beautiful areas.
