The script — as said out loud
There's an entire Scottish castle for sale on the Isle of Mull. Of course, you want to have a look around, so let's do that right now. And you can guess the price if you want to. So Isle of Mull off the west coast of Scotland. I mean, if you want to live a Scottish fantasy dream, this, this is going to do it for you. Listen to these key features. Enchanting coastal estate extending to 3702 acres. Over 3000 acres of pasture, rough grazing and hill. Three miles of rugged coastline. Portfolio of 17 estate properties. So it's not just the castle, including a Glengorne coffee shop, Latin's business, of course. You've got the magnificent B listed Scottish baronial castle with 18 bedrooms. It gets better, by the way. 260 acres of woodland, three lochs, including the ancient volcanic Loch Sardi Bane. I've definitely pronounced that wrong. If that hasn't got your juices flowing, I don't know what will. Just look at that. That's where you could live. Let's have a look inside the castle. Look at this. This, obviously with it being a castle, it's going to be pretty brilliant. Doesn't look like it's crumbling though, which is good. Looks like it's been well maintained, well beyond, well maintain. Bloody beautiful. Look at this bath looking out that window onto your own land. Can you imagine lying in that bath in your own castle? I can't even comprehend that. Then you've got the tea rooms here, by the looks of things, which is in itself glorious. You've got cows, farm stuff going on. Here's your coast. Oh, my goodness, is that a stone circle? You've got an ancient stone circle. This isn't just a house, is it? This is like an entire town you're looking after here. Get yourself a rugged Scotsman or woman and just live out the Scottish fancy lifestyle in your castle. But Tom, how much is the Scottish dream going to cost me? Is a great question. Glad you asked. Well, I can tell you this on the market right now for a guide price of £9 million.
