About the host

Hosted by Susan

Host profile image
I moved to Daviot in 2006 and had a family, the boys are now 13,13,15
Living next door to the Old Police House and watching it decay and ruin we decided to save the property and bought it...Then started to renovate the house, with a holiday cottage in mind...we had a good team of builders, stonemason's and joiners. The project took 18 month to complete and is now an amazing home.

Why they chose this property

The Old Police House was in a state of Disrepair and living next door It was the prime opportunity to do something with it and turn it in to a holiday cottage.

What makes this property unique

The History of the house was fascinating as it started around 1880 as a local grocers shop then around 1945 it was auctioned to the police where the local Bobby stayed and looked after Daviot and Strathnairn. It was then used by a local housing association and was not looked after very well...Then we transformed it to how it is today.
