New owners are being sought to restore a stunning Victorian Highland lodge to its former glory. The beautiful and secluded Cambusmore Lodge can be found close to Dornoch in Sutherland and comes with epic views over a gorgeous sea loch.
Surrounded by gardens and woodland, the lodge looks out over Loch Fleet National Nature Reserve, and has been put on the market for offers over £900,000. The current estate owners say the lodge isn't part of their plans and they are now looking for someone else to restore it to its "former glory".
Estate agent Galbraith said: "Although in a peaceful and unspoilt location, Cambusmore Lodge is easily accessible and is an ideal base from which to enjoy the area.
"Formerly a shooting lodge on the Sutherland Estate, the house was part of Cambusmore Estate which was sold in 2021. The new estate owners have undertaken a programme of planting the land with native woodland through a government-led initiative to combat climate change and biodiversity loss.
"The lodge doesn’t form part of this vision and so is now being sold to enable new owners to reinstate the house to its former glory whether as a residential property, holiday letting enterprise or events venue."
Known for its beautiful coastline, Sutherland has a dramatic landscape and dry climate, and this peaceful region offers many activities for the outdoor enthusiast.
Nearby Tain has a number of major supermarkets. Inverness, about a one hour and 15 minute drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.
Although occupied until 2021, the house is in a poor state of repair and is now in need of full renovation, meaning it would be prefect for someone looking to take on a project.
Galbraith added: "It is an excellent example of a late Victorian shooting lodge, retaining its grandeur and many original features. It is rare for a house of this quality to be sold from an estate and it offers an exceptional residential or commercial opportunity."
