Description
Sandside Estate is a 8,137-acre coastal property in Caithness, Scotland, featuring a diverse range of natural habitats, including 2.75 miles of coastline, sea cliffs, open moorland, woodland, peatland, hill lochs, and burns. The estate has a rich history and offers a variety of outdoor activities, including red deer stalking, walked-up shooting, and fishing. The property is also home to a range of wildlife, including birds, and has been identified as having nationally important Class 1 carbon-rich soils and priority peatland habitat of high conservation value. The estate has received funding for peatland restoration, which is expected to result in significant carbon emissions reductions, and has also been approved for new native woodland planting, which will create a rare peat edge woodland and improve water quality.
