The County of Sutherland is known for its beautiful coastline and stunning rugged countryside, from the fertile straths to the dramatic mountain ranges. The region enjoys continued growth and yet retains its unspoilt charm and sense of community.

Opportunities for the outdoor enthusiast include walking, climbing, photography, sailing, fishing and deer stalking, as well as simply unwinding in the wilderness. The area has world class salmon fishing available on the Kyle of Sutherland and its four feeder rivers, the Carron, Shin, Oykel and Cassley and the Assynt loch system provides some of the finest wild Brown trout fishing in Scotland.

There are award winning beaches and the north west coast, with its beautiful coastline and access to the Outer Hebrides with its excellent sailing and the opportunity to island hop via the ferry from Ullapool. Golfing opportunities are exceptional and range from Ullapool Golf Club with a 9-hole links course to Royal Dornoch, formed in 1877, with an 18-hole championship course and a further 18-hole course within an hour’s drive.

The area is a haven for hillwalkers with the North West Highland Geopark and a range of well-known mountains, including Ben More Assynt, Stac Pollaidh, Suilven, Foinaven and Arkle in close proximity to Ledmore, all of which offer challenging climbs and breath taking views.

Ledmore Lodge Estate extends to 210.02 hectares or 518.96 acres in a very accessible and stunning area of Sutherland near Elphin in the North West Highlands. The surrounding area is the most sparsely populated corner of Europe, and the geology is amongst some of the oldest in Britain.

The stone built properties on the Estate are positioned at the eastern end of the Estate with far reaching views south and west over the Ledmore River towards the mountain peaks in the distance. The former Lodge and nearby Shepherd’s Cottage are surrounded by areas of garden ground, partly enclosed by old stone walls and fences and screened from the main road to the north and east by an established shelter belt of Scots pine and mixed broadleaves, creating privacy.

Potential exists to restore the Lodge and the former agricultural buildings for accommodation and tourism.
