Shean Cottage, Canisbay
 
The Property
In an elevated position allowing uninterrupted stunning views across Gills Bay to the Island of Stroma and the Orkney Isles, this three bedroom bungalow with attached garage would be an ideal retirement home or for holiday leasing. The recently redecorated property benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. Accommodation comprises lounge, sun porch, new kitchen, bathroom and three bedrooms. The surrounding countryside plays host to a myriad of wildlife and deer can be sometimes be seen during the day.



The Area
Canisbay is a small scattered community with a nineteenth century church used occasionally by the Royal Family as it is not far from the Castle of Mey. It has a modern medical centre, youth hostel, village hall, shop/post office, church and primary school. Nearby John O' Groats is undoubtedly one of the best-known places in Scotland, and every year this North-East tip of Caithness sees a procession of "End-to-Enders" making the long journey to Land's End. John O' Groats itself is very much a focal point for tourism, and the village boasts one hotel and a guest house, a campsite, numerous B&B establishments and a number of craft shops and studios. As well as being a destination in its own right, it is also a springboard for trips across the Pentland Firth via the short sea crossing to Orkney.
