Watch Property1/2 Share - Gulls' Island Lodge, Loch Tay Highland Lodges, Milton of Morenich FK21 8TY
2 Bed Detached Lodge - Offers Over £75,000
Gulls’ Island presents a rare opportunity to purchase a ½ share of a lodge located in the popular Loch Tay Highland Lodges park near Killin.
This attractive two bedroom lodge is situated in a prime location in the lower part of the park, close to the shores of Loch Tay.
The lodge along with its contents, is co-owned by 3 parties. We are selling a half share and the other two owners have a ¼ share each. Each share has a proportional allocation of time each year which varies from year to year so the ½ share that is for sale benefits from having 6 months of the year. For example, in 2024, the ½ share we are marketing has had the full months January, February, May, June, August & October. This will rotate to a different 6 months in 2025 and annually thereafter on a 4-year cycle. All contents are owned jointly between the owners and any repairs or replacements are shared proportionally as is general maintenance of the lodge.
Your allocation can be for your own exclusive use, or it can be rented out some or all of the time. The lodge has a current Short-Term Letting Licence. The current owners use the lodge themselves in addition to renting it out some of the time.
The lodge itself has full height windows to the front which maximise the views and a vaulted ceiling over the main living space. It is heated by smart electric radiators. There is a living room area with dining area and an attractive fully fitted kitchen with cooker, microwave, fridge and freezer, and washing machine. There are two bedrooms, one set up with a double bed and the other with twin beds. The twin bedroom has recessed shelves and both rooms have fitted wardrobes. There is a bathroom with bath with an electric shower over, WC, WHB and heated towel rail. The lodge has pine clad interior walls and is in good condition; it has, in the last two years, undergone major refurbishment with replacement of some white goods, furniture and soft furnishings.
To the front there is a covered balcony area with dining furniture. The lodge benefits from having a private parking space which can accommodate two vehicles. It is situated in a quiet area of the park, 200 metres from the loch and benefits from lovely open views.
There is a restaurant and bar, The Boathouse, on site and various leisure facilities including a children’s play area and local walks. The park is in a beautiful waterfront location with a marina and easy access for many watersports.
J&H Mitchell are marketing this property on behalf of our private client. We are in no way affiliated with the park that the lodge is located on and have no input into terms and conditions or site fees.

Pitlochry, Kenmore
HIGHLAND Perthshire is widely acknowledged to be among the most scenic areas Scotland has to offer, acting as the gateway to the Cairngorm National Park, where development is strictly controlled.
Pitlochry lies in the shadow of 2759 feet Ben Vrackie and has long been a key halt on the north-south route linking the Lowlands with the Highlands, with her railway station dating back to the Victorian era.
Villas and the occasional extravagant tower dot the hillside and while it thrives as a year-round holiday destination encouraged by the Theatre in the Hills, The Etape Caledonia and The Enchanted Forest, a strong sense of community endures.
Like Pitlochry, the nearby town of Aberfeldy boasts a distillery and its own secondary school, along with an impressive recreation centre. Poet Robert Burns Birks o Aberfeldy helped put the town on the tourist map.
Kenmore, a village which can justifiably lay claim to be the prettiest in Perthshire, is tucked between the expanse of Loch Tay and the river which emerges from it en route to the North Sea.
Dunkeld is instantly identifiable thanks to its 1809 Thomas Telford designed, seven arch bridge linking with Birnam on the southern bank of the Tay, a medieval cathedral and the cluster of restored whitewashed cottages around The Cross and ornate Atholl Memorial Fountain.
Properties in both Dunkeld and Birnam, which were by-passed by the A9 in the 1970s, tend to generate immediate interest when they come onto the market.
Many of them date back to 18th Century reconstruction demanded after all but a handful of older homes were destroyed by a battle in 1689.
Set within a National Scenic Area, theres no shortage of trails to explore, with The Hermitage and its magnificent trees and folly just a few miles up-river.
The railway station on the outskirts of Birnam provides an alternative to road links with Perth and the Royal School of Dunkeld can trace its history back 450 years and more.
Both villages have a thriving cultural scene and a visit to the pioneering Community Orchard near the bridge is always fruitful in the autumn months.
Stanley, near the River Tay, is one of the Big Countys planned villages, dating back to the 1780s.
It was developed on the back of the nearby six-storey cotton mills which provided local employment for nearly 200 years before finally shutting down in 1989. These listed buildings have been transformed from industrial heritage into in-demand apartments.
Nearby villages like Luncarty, four miles north of the Fair City, have been mushrooming - with the commute to Perth promising to be made even easier with ongoing A9 improvements.
