A remote property along a highland loch in Scotland is seeking someone, or some couple, to come housesit several holiday cottages for a season—or possibly several. While the picturesque post offers compensation and free lodging, the catch is it’s on a secluded peninsula, 40 minutes by boat from the nearest hamlet. Remember to bring your bagpipes if you have them.
The listing, posted by Rural Recruits on March 14, aims to hire an estate worker and housekeeper to join an established 14,000-acre crofting estate at Tarbet Bay, adjacent to Loch Nevis on Scotland’s west coast, near the tiny port of Mallaig. The obscure location requires that applicants be able to work alone but also must be “friendly and hard working,” as they will work with a small team.
