Kilberry Castle is currently on the market via Knight Frank for offers over £650,000 - see more pictures, or enquire with the agent for further details. Will we ever fail to be amazed at the dichotomy between Scottish property prices and the rest of the country?! Just to really make the most out of the £650,000 guide price is also the three bed Laundry Cottage - once the Victorian laundry for the castle - located to the west of the main property, which also has incredible views over the unspoilt coastal landscape.Īnd if this wasn’t enough, there is also planning permission to create a four bedroom house within the grounds. There is also a Victorian pets graveyard, Mausoleum and Chapel. Situated in the sleepy community of Knockrome on the picturesque Isle of Jura, The Bothy is a charming stone-built two-bedroom cottage, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a property on this much sought after Scottish island. Also within the grounds is a walled garden, built in 1877, originally designed for growing fruits. The tower house is set back from a secluded sandy beach, down a long tree-lined drive way, and comes with over 21 acres of rural land and numerous outbuildings. Many of the rooms have spectacular coastal views over the coast of Islay and Jura, Gyha and the Mull of Kintyre. Whilst the Isle of Jura, with its sense of wilderness and remoteness, is undoubtedly an excellent escapism retreat and the island has a huge sense of history. Today, there are 10 bedrooms and five main reception rooms, with a further four ‘secondary’ bedrooms, four bathrooms, and orangery (or rather, what’s left of one) and flexible basement accommodation. A mountainous island, with its Paps and extensive deer forests, Jura is probably best known for its distinctive and world-renowned whisky, with the distillery adjacent to The Jura Hotel. The renovation was completed in 1873 with the further additions of the western wing and billiard room. It remained in a state of disregard until 1840, when John Campbell the 9th of Kilberry added the circular tower and northern additions to the property.
