A caravan and camping site on the shores of legendary Loch Ness is up for sale at offers over £2 million.

Would-be buyers have a chance to own part of the shoreline of the world’s most famous body of water, whose depths have attracted monster hunters from all over the world and inspired a string of movies.

Famous visitors on the hunt for Nessie over the years have included cartoon pooch Scooby-Doo and Sherlock Holmes.

Loch Ness Shores – on the east side of the loch – has around 985ft of loch frontage, its own private slipway, salmon fishing permits, and a site licence for 124 tourers, tents, or motorhomes for 12-month use.

The current owners of the near-19-acre site, Donald and Lyn Forbes, have decided to retire as the eight-year-old business nears the end of its current Camping and Caravanning Club (CCC) franchise arrangement.
