In business…
March 31, 2008
One of the things we considered doing once we lived here was running a B&B. However we’re not yet sure whether we’re quite up to that. As a good alternative we decided to start a holiday letting business. Over the past months we’ve acquired two properties, which are currently being transformed into holiday lets. One property is located in Holmisdale, part of the township of Glendale. The other one is right across the road from our house! Same address as our house… easy! It will be ready for business by the beginning of May of this year. The property in Holmisdale will need some more work as it needs quite some refurbishment.
Next to the property in Holmisdale, there’s an old byre which belongs to the property. Before buying the property we had an informal chat with the planning officer in Portree to assess whether it was possible to do a conversion of that byre. The planning officer saw no problems with that, which made the acquisition of the property in Holmisdale a very interesting one. We can accommodate another holiday let there without the need for buying a plot of land. Building plots are getting expensive on Skye!
