All customers obtain a "personal right" to their land. This is essentially a contract where we pass the rights to the land over to you. So you can visit your plot, call it your own and essentially do what you please with the land within the normal confines of law (we do also retain rights to prevent the land being used for hunting and shooting).

Further you can sell or pass on the contract as you can with any property. So the gift can be passed down the generations, not just once but forever.

Please note however that the Land Registration etc. (Scotland) Act 2012 does not allow souvenir plots of land to be officially registered so technically we have to remain as the registered owner of the land on your behalf. We will also manage (at no cost to you) the land as a nature reserve on an ongoing basis. The land can only ever be used for the purposes of conservation.

Thanks to the support of all those who have joined as Lairds, Lords and Ladies over the years, we now have two nature reserves. The first reserve, “The Glencoe Woods Nature Reserve”, near Duror and 10 miles from Glencoe, was created from the land we bought in 2007 and is now an established 4-star tourist attraction with thousands of visitors each year.

The second location is Mountain View Nature Reserve, roughly 10 miles West of Invergarry, which we bought in 2014. If the success continues through the support of customers such as yourself, our goal will be to continue to purchase more land and create more reserves.

As Glencoe Nature Reserve is best set-up to welcome visitors, The Scottish Gift wants to ensure that all customers receive a plot here and have the right to style themselves as a Lord or Lady of Glencoe. We only sell 1 sqft plots from the original reserve, as we have a visitor centre and run the Meet and Greet tours from here and want to be able to provide everyone the chance to see and visit their land.

As such, if you buy a 1 sqft plot, it will be in the Glencoe Woods Nature Reserve and you be able to style yourself as a Lord or Lady of Glencoe. If you buy a larger plot, ie: the 10 sqft and 100 sqft, it will be located at Kilnaish and, to celebrate that, you'll be able to style yourself as a Lord or Lady of Kilnaish. However, you will also get a free 1 sqft plot at the Glencoe Woods Nature Reserve. This means you can also style yourself as a Lord or Lady of Glencoe as well! Of course it also means you can fully enjoy the guided tours and other facilities on offer the original reserve too.
