All this could be yours for the price of a 2-bed flat in London *starts packing*.

The 2,754 acre Aird Behag Estate on the Isle of Lewis in Scotland is up for sale with Knight Frank for £375,000, which works out at just over £136 an acre. Bargain.

The estate boasts a mix of spectular glens, hill lochs and one of Scotland’s most stunning stretches of coastline which runs along three sea lochs and forms two peninsulas.

The price tag also includes a three-bed house which comes with a terrace overlooking a private bay.

Bear in mind that a one-bed in Knightsbridge London, which covers just 0.03 of an acre went on sale this week for TEN times that price at £3.75m. Yep.



That said, the estate can only be reached by boat, helicopter or a lengthy hike, and the three-bed house is in need of a total revamp, plus there’s the Scottish weather, but Phil and Kirsty do always bang on about compromise.

Aird Bheag is being sold by 37-year-old Rory Miller Mundy and his sister, who grew up there.

Their dad Andrew, a lobster fisherman, bought the island retreat in 1971 and brought running water and electricity to Lewis for the first time. After he passed away in 2000, solar panels and a power- generating wind turbine were added to the estate.

Rory, who describes the estate as the best place to grow up, says: ‘It would be easy, and relatively inexpensive, to transform the house into a very comfortable place to live.’
