Description
Highland Lassie is a sympathetic conversion of a former fishing boat built with windblown oak which follows the line of the hull giving the floating hotel a distinctive and imposing appearance. She is unique in many ways, the only fishing boat in Scotland to be decommissioned and left whole. Highland Lassie was designed to be a cruiser doing chartered sailings up the west coast and canal.
Currently based on the majestic Caledonian Canal, a spectacular sixty-mile stretch, 22 miles of wide canal, the remainder being formed by natural fresh water lochs. There are 29 locks and 10 swing bridges along the waterway, linking the world-famous Loch Ness, through the Great Glen to Loch Oich and Loch Lochy.

This charming fishing boat conversion is ideally set up to derive income from day 1. Highlights include a well-equipped commercial galley kitchen, a spectacular dining saloon with comfortable seating for up to 12 diners and 5 spacious and beautifully appointed double cabins with en-suite shower rooms. Potential income is thought to be in the region of between £20-£25,000 per week in charter fees.
This truly is a unique opportunity to purchase a dream home and lifestyle business set in a world-famous stretch of water.
