Glendyne Cottage is a three-bedroom detached stone home set in the upland village of Wanlockhead, offering panoramic rural views and a strong holiday-let licence. The living room centres on a log burner for cosy nights in, while the kitchen and main bathroom provide practical, ready-to-use accommodation. Broadband is fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting remote working or managing bookings.
The property’s large overall footprint (approximately 1,442 sq ft) and freehold tenure give clear scope for use as a permanent home, weekend retreat or income-generating holiday let. The village atmosphere, local museum and outdoor activities attract year-round visitors, underpinning rental potential and leisure appeal.
Buyers should note the cottage’s traditional layout includes smaller rooms and generally low ceilings in places, reflecting its character but limiting some modernisation options. The wider area is classified as remoter communities with limited local services and higher area deprivation, so day-to-day travel for shops and schools requires planning.
Offered at an accessible price, this property suits buyers seeking a rural lifestyle or investors wanting a turn-key holiday let in Scotland’s highest village. Prospective purchasers are advised to verify services and condition themselves, particularly if planning structural changes or full refurbishment.
