Anglers in the market for a private beat could be in luck as two riverside properties go up for sale in the Highlands.

Formerly a pair of crofters’ cottages, the 130-year-old semi-detached two-storey houses boast seven bedrooms and six bathrooms, complete with panoramic views.

Situated in the vast open landscape of the Tomatic area, tenants will awake to scenic views overlooking the River Findhorn and both the Findhorn and Tomatin Viaducts.

Dalnahoyn House and Dalnahoyn were configured together, featuring a concealed internal door connecting both properties.

Dalnahoyn House is the largest of the two properties, with four bedrooms and four bathrooms.

Guests are welcomed through the home’s front door into a spacious hallway.

Savills property agent Fiona Gormley said the property is the perfect place to “blow away the cobwebs.”

She said: “A wonderful riverbank setting. The perfect spot to cast your rod and blow away the cobwebs. I also love the versatility of multi-generational space or a commercial aspect.”
