We spent a long time looking for our perfect house, we found it in the end. We live on the shores of a Loch in Scotland and the house is over 145 years old, as a result it has very thick walls, although the kitchen isn't the worlds largest the walk in pantry is cavernous and cold, at this time of year we don't store beer in the fridge we just pop it on a shelf and wait 2 hours...We have a burn that runs alongside the house so it could be used for fresh(ish) water. The Loch could provide fish and as it is a sea loch we get tons of sea vegetables. The hills around us have thousands of sheep and it is said 20000 deer.
