The National10-06-2025
Located in Kilmuir, Coille Na Creidge Lodges is approximately 10 minutes by car to Inverness city centre.
The estate is described as being within a 12-acre plot of private woodland known as Craigbreck Wood and boasts "three luxury solid log Canadian style lodges".
One lodge sits in a small clearing in the woodland with a hot tub on the private decking, with a log-burner inside the cabin.

Another is marketed as looking towards a small lochan within the woodland, providing "complete privacy".
The listing for the estate states the retreat has been developed and operated by a family lifestyle owner, but the business could "equally support remote ownership to release the exceptional owners' lodge".
Gary Witham, director at Christie & Co, who is managing the sale, said: 'Coille Na Creige has an amazing beauty and tranquillity to it, despite being so close to the main hub of Inverness.
"The business can be taken in various directions going forward and would sit well either as part of a leisure portfolio or continuing in owner operation.'
Coille Na Creidge Lodges are on the market with a freehold asking price of £850,000.
Planning permission is in place (subject to conditions) to add a further two lodges.

M&S introduces invisible UV tags to track packaging through recycling system

The supermarket is the first to roll out the packaging tags, developed by recycling technology firm Polytag, on shop shelves. They have been printed onto the labels of M&S's four-pint, milk bottles available now in nationwide stores, with the aim of boosting recycling rates. Once recycled by households, bottles will be scanned by Polytag's plastic detection units if the recycling facility has been retrofitted with the technology. M&S will then be able to view live recycling data, accessing real-time, barcode-level insights into the recycling of its single-use, plastic packaging. Polytag said the data is designed to accurately track sustainability targets, improve the accuracy of recycling claims and strengthen compliance with regulations that require businesses to pay for the management and recycling of their products' packaging waste. The hope is also that the tags can help to reduce M&S's costs under these extended producer responsibility (EPR) rules through more precise reporting. M&S has also invested £100,000 into Polytag's Ecotrace programme, which aims to drive the rollout of a nationwide, invisible UV tag reader network. Co-op, Waitrose and Aldi have also been working with Polytag to introducing UV tags to their products. Alice Rackley, chief executive of Polytag, said: 'Retailers and brands can no longer afford to lose sight of packaging the moment it leaves their supply chain. 'With EPR now in effect, we're entering a new era where real data is not just helpful, it's essential. 'By tagging products and tracking their journey through the recycling system, we're creating a clear line of sight from shelf to sorting facility. 'M&S taking this first-to-shelf step signals not only a commitment to transparency, but a real shift in how the industry approaches responsibility. 'It's a major milestone for the Ecotrace programme and for the wider UK recycling industry.' Mark Hitschmann, head of packaging at M&S Food, said: 'We expect to gain more data and insight around what is happening to our packaging in the real world through our work with Polytag. 'Our customers consistently tell us that reducing plastic is very important to them so this is another way they can trust that M&S is doing the right thing to help them easily make more sustainable choices when they shop with us.'
