The Scottish mansions you can buy for the price of a London home

Escape the city and live a life of luxury in the countryside for the same price...

The property market is no joke, and it’s a sure-fire thing that most of us are going to struggle to ever get our hands on any kind of decent sized London property in the next couple of decades. Unless, of course, you have a spare £1.5 million hanging around for a 2 bed home in central London. But! Fear not, because as we get older, the hustle and bustle of city life can make us want to grind to a halt and escape to the countryside. So, if you’re that way inclined, gentlemen, look no further.

This incredible Baronial castles is set on 21 acres of private lands with stunning views over its own private loch and onto the Ochil Hills. The castle also comes with several properties that originally formed the Orchil Estate, each one set in its own grounds. The castle itself has 4 bedrooms, 3 of which are ensuite, and there’s a 3 bedroom flat in the upper wing. The surrounding area is as beautiful as Scotland gets – something that no property in London could ever offer. Find out more.

This stunning and fully refurbished 16th century castle sits in its own private 80 acres of grounds above the Duchy Water in the Loch Ard Forest. A far cry from central city life, the location is as secluded, rural and scenic as it gets. It’s also complete with its own tennis court, 12 miles of fishing on Duchray Water and 8 private bedrooms. Find out more.

Although this raises the bar a little higher price-wise, this stunning castle is still a lot cheaper than a Mayfair home. And with 11 bedrooms, 4 reception rooms, its own sporting estate and a totally privately secluded space where life will be completely uninterrupted, we honestly can’t think of a better way to invest. Find out more.
