Right of access -
There is a right of access across the south east field and burn to the residential property at Westburn which is in separate ownership.

Located approximately 3 miles east of Thurso, 19 miles west of Wick and close to the northern coast of Scotland, the property is easily accessible with the land located on the north side of the A936 public road which links Thurso and Caithness.

Caithness is a well-established agricultural area and therefore has a good range of suppliers and contractors. There is a local livestock market at Quoybrae which has regular sales throughout the year. There are also weekly sales in Dingwall which is approximately 85 miles to the south.

Thurso is the main town within the area and it has a population of approximately 9,000.

Thurso is the commercial centre for the far north of Scotland and its port (Scrabster) has car ferry sailings three times per day to Stromness to the islands of Orkney.

Inverness, Capital of the Highlands, lies approximately 112 miles to the south, has a full range of commercial, educational, recreational, retail and transport facilities which you would expect for a city of approximately 80,000+ inhabitants.
