It’s been a long, hot Scottish summer. International travel is a nightmare. We picked some perfect homes in special locations that will make you feel like you’re on holiday all year round.
Loch Tay
Nestled in woodland above Loch Tay, Waterfall House has a very special feature. You guessed it – there’s a waterfall in the garden.
Bathing your feet in the fast-flowing stream on a hot summer’s day must be a real treat.
The two-bedroom house was built in 1997. Designed to take advantage of its views, the living accommodation is on the first floor. From that elevated position you enjoy a fantastic outlook over Loch Tay.
With a vaulted ceiling and wood burning stove the living room is a particularly impressive space.
Waterfall Cottage is on sale for offers over £350,000.
Brownhills
A short distance from the edge of St Andrews, the hamlet of Brownhills enjoys a great coastal location. 1 Brownhill Gardens is an attractive two-storey end terraced house.
The Fife Coastal Path, East Sands and St Andrews Harbour are all within easy walking distance.
To enhance the holiday feeling even further, the house even has a hot tub in the garden.
1 Brownhill Gardens is on sale for offers over £350,000.
Kilconquhar
Elsewhere in Fife, Kilconquhar is a wonderful little village set on the shores of a loch.
