Description

River & Glen - Highland Riverside Retreat on the North Coast 500

A rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional 1,987 sqm (21,388 sq ft) riverside plot in one of the most spectacular settings in the Scottish Highlands.

Set beside the Glascarnoch River, with direct water access, fishing rights and excellent tarred-road access, River & Glen Plot 1 offers the chance to secure your own private Highland escape in an area renowned for its natural beauty, outdoor pursuits and proximity to the iconic North Coast 500.

Your Own Highland Oasis

Imagine having your own slice of the Highlands, surrounded by dramatic scenery, open countryside, river frontage and complete peace and tranquillity.

The regularly shaped plot extends to approximately 1,987 sqm (21,388 sq ft) with direct access to the Glascarnoch River, the land is ideally suited to those looking for a base for camping, glamping, recreation, fishing and outdoor adventures.

The land is un-serviced and no groundworks have been undertaken, giving the purchaser a blank canvas to make the most of this remarkable location.

Outstanding Highland Location

River & Glen is positioned just off the A835, the principal route connecting Inverness, the Capital of the Highlands, with the picturesque coastal town of Ullapool.

The setting is framed by the impressive 500-metre Glascarnoch Dam, a recognised local attraction which helps create and maintain the approximately 7km-long Loch Glascarnoch reservoir.

The loch is renowned for its fishing, particularly brown trout and pike, with fishing accessible from the banks and by boat.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the surrounding area is packed with opportunities for walking, climbing, fishing, cycling, wildlife watching and exploring some of Scotland's most spectacular landscapes.

Explore the Highlands

The plot provides an excellent base for discovering the very best of the region, including:

The North Coast 500 - one of Scotland's most celebrated scenic touring routes
Ben Wyvis (Glas Leathad Mòr) - the highest peak in the region
Ben Wyvis Nature Reserve
The spectacular Black Water Falls
Loch Glascarnoch and its renowned fishing
Numerous nearby rivers, lochs and Highland walking routes
The beautiful coastal town of Ullapool

The well-regarded Aultguish Inn is also nearby, providing breakfast, lunch, dinner and a well-stocked bar.

Whether you are seeking a private Highland base, a destination for regular outdoor adventures or an opportunity to create a unique recreational retreat, River & Glen offers enormous lifestyle appeal.
