Edinburgh property: Inside the coastal cottage cheaper a 1 bed city flat

A "spacious" three-bedroom cottage has gone up for sale on the Isle of Lewis, and it's cheaper than a flat in Edinburgh.

The family home is found on North Galson on the West Coast of Lewis. It enjoys "beautiful" views out over the Atlantic, as well as the surrounding village.

Available for offers over £100,000, the property is less expensive than a one-bedroom flat in the capital. Properties in the city usually start at over £100,000 according to Rightmove.
