The Property

The property comprises approximately 116.39 acres (47.10 ha) of owner-occupied croft land currently used as grazing grassland. The land is predominantly graded 4.2 by the James Hutton Institute with a small section of grade 5.3. The croft rises from approximately 190m to 240m above sea level.

The land is bounded to the north by the River Farigaig where there is enjoyable fishing and spectacular views of the surrounding hills and countryside. The croft also includes Loch a’ Bhodaich and part ownership of Loch an Ordain.

There is good access to the croft from the public road leading up a track to a modern agricultural shed (about 18m x 15m) which is constructed of a steel portal frame, corrugated roof and a concrete floor. Internally the shed has a timber built workshop. To the south of the croft, there are also ruins from former buildings, as well as a traditional stone outbuilding under a corrugated roof used as a field shelter.

Situation

Oldtown croft lies about 16 miles to the south west of Inverness and offers a tranquil countryside setting characterised by rolling hills, scattered woodlands, and expansive open spaces. Combining the rugged beauty and timeless enchantment of the Scottish Highlands, Oldtown Croft sits about two miles north of the settlement of Errogie. The property can be accessed via the B862, a scenic road following the shores of Loch Ness at the foot of the Monadhliath Mountains. The area provides a stunning setting for fishing, shooting, stalking, hill walking and bird watching, with the property perfectly placed for those looking to get away from it all.

Inverness, the capital of the Highlands, provides an extensive range of shopping, leisure, cultural and educational facilities, together with several major supermarkets. Inverness Airport is about a fifty-minute drive away with flights to a wide range of UK destinations (including London Heathrow) and a limited number of European destinations (including Amsterdam).
