If, it is land to build upon, what about Ft. Augustus or Tyndrum, near enough the coast ?

Used to get a bit interesting during the Glesca fair! Scotland's south coast is a nice part of the world though. As mentioned, Kirkudbright is interesting too with lots of artistic connections.
I’d advise the same as if looking for a place in France - make sure you are on the edge/within walking distance of a viable town. Saw a feature on a retired couple who had designed and built a house for their retirement - taking into account future abilities, but in building it in the middle of Perthshire countryside - hadn’t given any thought as to access, especially in winter - in future years.
Lots of nice towns/areas, but when you want close to sea on west coast - the choices reduce a lot, I think.
Good advice. My retirement will mainly consist of having a huge garage and filling it interesting stuff to play with. So the next move may be my last.
Often, near my parents in rural eastlovia, you see mainly youngish families moving out to whatever Steading has been renovated/built.
It is fine until the first bad winter, when poor liddle Tabitha (or similar) is unable to get to brownies/gymkhana/gym due to snow etc.
Having no power/broadband/mobile phone network; heating lighting etc soon has them scurrying back towards civilisation until the next annual lemmings arrive.
A tad jaded, probably, and obvious not that relevant to us young tossers.
Until you need power for any medical equipment, for your dotage, or are unable to drive. Then decent public transport becomes a requirement.
Still, a pot bellied stove to keep warm and heat a brew, and much space for all the tools you promised yourself for that fine fettling is all a man truly needs.

And you know this how ???As long as his suppositories can get through he'll be ok...
I'm a stranger to Kirkcudbright and that coast. Do they get many midges?
