The nearby villages of Bonar Bridge and Ardgay have a good range of shops and amenities including a primary school and a train station on the Inverness line within walking distance of the house. Secondary schooling is available in Dornoch or Tain, both of which offer a further range of shops and facilities. Inverness, about an hour’s drive away, has all the amenities of a modern city as well as its airport with regular flights to the south and to Europe. The county of Sutherland has a beautiful coastline with lush countryside rising to rugged hills and moorland. The region enjoys continued growth and prosperity and yet retains its unspoilt charm and sense of community. There is a range of opportunities available for the outdoor enthusiast including walking, cycling, hill climbing, golf, sailing, fishing and shooting, while the peaceful countryside is home to a huge variety of wildlife and birds. Fishermen are regular visitors to this area attracted by the world class salmon fishing available on the Kyle and its four tributary rivers, the Carron, Cassley, Oykel and Shin. There is an award-winning beach at Dornoch as well as its championship golf course, while the west coast with its beautiful coastline and excellent sailing is only an hour’s drive away.

Formerly a bungalow, Woodside now has well laid out family accommodation over two floors. The current owners purchased the property in 2019 and after a period of letting the house, moved in in 2022. Recent improvements have been carried out and these include new fittings in the en suite shower room, redecoration, re-fencing the grounds, removing the garage, erecting a new shed and improving the garden.
