3 Location Tomintoul has the reputation of being the highest village in the Highlands at 1165 ft (350m) centred round a picturesque square and situated near the Lecht Ski Resort Centre on the scenic route between Grantown on Spey and Royal Deeside and is the North Eastern gateway to the Cairngorms National Park. It is the largest village in the Glenlivet area supporting B&Bs, a post office and general stores, art studios, craft, gift and malt whisky shops. Tomintoul also has its own distillery, "the Tomintoul", which made the Guinness Book of Records for producing "The Largest Bottle of Scotch Whisky in The World" - at litres. There are also three more stills, "The Tamnavulin", "The Braeval" and "The Glenlivet" within a few miles. The area is surrounded by the mountain ranges of the Cromdales, the Ladder Hills and the Cairngorms, facilitating spectacular views, walks and other outdoor pursuits, including wildlife appreciation, salmon and trout fishing on the nearby River Avon, mountain biking and hill walking. The nearby Lecht Ski Centre 2090 provides winter sports and in the summer has quad biking and gocarts. Description The subjects comprise a holiday apartment development site with valuable full planning granted by the Cairngorms National Park Planning Authority for the construction of 5 stylish two bedroom holiday apartments, a three bedroom luxury managers' residence and a studio staff bedsit together with a ski, sports and bike store. The whole development is incorporated in an individual architect-designed L- shaped terrace with varying roof heights ranging from 1 ½ to 1 ¾ and set off with a feature corner turret. Set in approximately 0.5 acres and with a fantastic prominent corner site in the frequently visited Highland town of Tomintoul, this development represents a marvellous opportunity to acquire a project with considerable commercial potential. Subject to the necessary planning consents the highly versatile units are also suitable for a range of alternative uses and could be employed either as five self catering summer lets for four to six persons, or as a "Travelodge" style motel with individual catering facilities, yielding a total of ten apartments or, indeed, a combination of both arrangements.
