Charming listed cottage for sale in famous Highlands location
Plockton is considered one of the most beautiful places in the UK. Sheltered by a headland from the wind and open sea, the small village sits at the mouth of Loch Carron, Ross-shire in the Highlands.
There are unspoilt sandy beaches on the seaward shore, reached by footpaths, and a maze of narrow lanes leading to forests, lochs, mountains and moors.
