This beautiful and tranquil reservoir was formed in 1880 by the construction of two embankment dams and was previously used to supply the public in Forfar and the surrounding area with water. Today, no water is taken from the reservoir and it serves an environmental service and has become a haven for wildlife and leisure.
The length of the reservoir makes it ideal for recreational activities such as water skiing, sailing, kayaking, wild swimming and paddleboarding.
In addition, there is a healthy population of trout and pike to fish for. Land at the east and west dams is included in the sale.
The reservoir is regulated by SEPA under the Reservoir (Scotland) Act 2011 see legal pack for further details.
Guide Price £99,000
