A "charming traditional cottage" in a "secluded woodland setting" in Scotland is available to purchase for offers over £280,000.
Woodlands Cottage is located near the village of Invermoriston on the northern shores of Loch Ness. The village is well known for its stunning scenery and close proximity to Inverness and the Isle of Skye.
For those looking for a quiet retreat, Woodlands Cottage is nestled away in "unspoilt and tranquil" countryside. The listing calls it a "haven for wildlife" that offers a number of picturesque way-marked walking trails and fishing spots.
There are numerous amenities in Invermoriston, including a shop with a post office, a coffee shop, and a hotel. Additionally, the settlement of Fort Augustus is a short drive away, and includes a number of shops, hotels, and restaurants, as well as schooling up to secondary level.
The listing states: "Woodlands is a charming traditional cottage in the scattered community of Dalcattaig close to Invermoriston. The cottage is in a beautiful woodland setting with grounds that extend to the banks of the River Moriston."
The two-bedroom cottage has been "improved and well maintained" by its current occupants, who purchased it in 2019. Recent renovations include rewiring and upgrading of the insulation, as well as a refurbishment of the interior to provide "comfortable and contemporary" living.
However, many of the property's original features remain intact. These include wood panelling in the kitchen and a stone fireplace in the sitting room.
The ground floor of the cottage is comprised of a sun porch, an entrance hall, a sitting room, a dining kitchen, and a bathroom. Upstairs, there are two bedrooms that both offer stunning woodland views.

Davy Chou’s “Return to Seoul” is a fast one for the books, a film that (contrary to so much of contemporary cinema) delivers exponentially more than it promises. It begins as a modest, observational slice-of-life drama and slowly transforms into a movie about the lies we tell ourselves — about who we are, what we feel, and what we need.
