If you go to Loch Shin you'll spot what at first looks like one of the most remote houses in the Highlands
Found in the middle of a beautiful Scottish loch has to be one of Scotland's most unique houses, perched as it is on a small island – however, all is not what it seems.
Featuring on shows such as BBC's Grand Tours of Scotland’s Lochs, the story behind this charming little cottage with its slate roof is credited to a local called Jock Broon. The house was actually built only a few decades ago as a float for the Lairg Gala, with people taking the house to the island by boat instead of scrapping it after the festivities.
