Welcome to Druimghigha, a former traditional Hill Farm on the Isle of Mull, Inner Hebrides on the west coast of Scotland.
We are Shelley, Paul and Rae and we bought Druimghigha and moved here from suburban Sheffield just before Christmas 2022. After searching for a renovation project on the island for more than a year we finally found this place and it was exactly what we'd been looking for.
We'll be documenting the whole renovation process of both the buildings and the gardens, our aim is a full scheme of sympathetic restoration of the property which has fallen into disrepair in recent times. The first part of the project (and one which will, I'm sure last for quite a while) is the Big House, the former farmhouse; wildly extended in the 80's to more than 4 times it's original size. There are multiple challenges to overcome as we upgrade the accommodation, stripping out, insulating, rewiring, re plumbing (hopefully not re-roofing) and eventually, restoring the place in to two beautiful cottages.
