Land For Sale

Croft 3 Badcall offers the unique opportunity to acquire the tenancy of a croft, which extends to the edge of Badcall Bay. Close to the village of Scourie, a thriving crofting community on the scenic West Coast of Sutherland. The croft land is located on both sides of the road. On the larger area is the ruins of an old barn and there was planning permission on this area for the construction of a dwelling house. The planning has since lapsed although we foresee no reason this could not be reapplied for. The land enjoys truly stunning views across Badcall Bay to the mountains in the distance.
