Item Description
As you will know from viewing our other listings, Lochaber Highland Estates is a company with charitable intentions towards conservations. Our current project is in Lairds Wood, Lochaber.

This listing is for a tree to be planted in the wood, in any name you choose.

By dedicating a tree for yourself, a friend or relative you will be helping to create beautiful new woodland throughout the UK. Whatever the event, dedicating a tree is the ideal way to celebrate a special occasion, and to show someone that you care about them and the environment.

Your tree will be planted in Lairds Wood by Lochaber Estates.

Imagine how would you would feel if a friend told you that they had planted a tree just for you, in the beautiful Highlands of Scotland? Growing over the years, your tree and its progeny will stand forever as part of the restored Caledonian Forest and a grove of 10 trees will offset the typical family carbon footprint of 20 tons for a whole year - so why not make this an annual purchase.

Our dedicated tree-planting gift is one of the most eco-friendly and unique presents you can buy! It's a gift that doesn't 'cost the earth' and it's suitable for all occasions, a very special way of giving something back to the planet. It is truly the gift of a lifetime! Let us plant a tree on your behalf with your personal dedication, as a special gift for someone close to you, or to honour an important event.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

As well as planting a tree for you, we will also send you a full colour personalised A4 certificate ready to frame, which records that "A tree has been planted as part of Scottish Woodland Alliance's work to restore the Caledonian Forest in the Highlands of Scotland."  In addition, there is a large space on the certificate for your personal dedication, just let us know what you want it to say. Also included is information about Lairds Wood and the work of the Scottish Woodland Alliance and a photograph of the site.

Personalising

We will make the deeds in the name of the PayPal account holder unless otherwise specified. When you are in the eBay checkout system, on the first page there is a box to "add a message to highland_titles" Click to add a message, and put in the full name of the recipient and if they are a Laird, Lady or Lord (your choice)

If you forget to do this, then email us immediately with the details. If you forget to email us at all and later want to change the deeds from your name to someone elses we can do this for just the cost of re-shipping. If there is no message given at checkout we will put the deeds in the name of the PayPal account holder.

We accept payment by:

Credit or Debit Card, Paypal, Postal Orders (UK £) or cheque 

These are the only payment methods we accept

If you select to pay by credit/debit card please call us to make the payment 01481 823939 from the UK, 011 44 1481 823939 (from the USA, Australia or elsewhere abroad)

FAQ's

Q. Is this really legal?

A. Yes-this is fully legal. You are truly purchasing a small Scottish estate,  being 1 square foot in size. Under United Kingdom law, as the owner of a Scottish estate, you will have the full rights to style yourself as a Laird, Lord or Lady

Q. Do I need to register my land?

A. No.  In fact The Land Registration (Scotland) Act 1979 Section 4 (1)(b)prohibits you from registering your land - just because this would tie up the Registrar with so many small plots.  Unlike in England, and some other countries, you do not need to register your purchase in order to be the owner of the land. The transfer of the land is done under Scottish contract law.

Q. What can I do with the land?

A. As the new owner, you can come and visit; take a walk in Lairds Wood, take a photograph of your "Estate". In the middle of the wood there is a Lochan that you can sit by and enjoy the views. Bird watching, fungi spotting, country pursuits. What you cannot do is build on the land, because this would spoil the wood for everyone. If you wish to camp please note that is permitted with 100 or 1000 square foot plots.

Q. Can I purchase one for someone else?

A. Absolutely. Just let us know what name to put on the certificate when ordering. If you would like a message enclosed to the new Laird/Lady, and the pack shipped directly to them, this is all part of the service. As is customising the deeds with a special date i.e a birthday or anniversary Just let us know at the time of ordering.  We also can gift wrap the deeds with top quality wrapping paper, a Lochaber style tartan ribbon, sealed with a gold Lochaber Highland Estates Seal. When you pay for the item at checkout just select the 'insurance' with the shipping (£3.99) it is NOT shipping insurance (that is included) it is the gift wrap option ;)

Q. Can I use my title for anything and in any situation?

A. You may use your title at any time except for any illegal purpose - such as to commit fraud, or obtain money by deception.

Q. Can I leave this land to anyone?

A. Your land can be left to anybody through your will upon your death or even sold to someone else if you wish to sell the land, after all it is yours. If you wish, we can help you when you come to sell it, or you can use your own solicitors, it is up to you.

Q. Can I change my bank account, credit, drivers license?

A. Yes, you have the right to change your title on any documentation or ID. We provide the Master Title Deed for you to do this.

Q. Is there anything else to pay?

A. No.  There are no land taxes in Scotland and absolutely no other costs associated with buying or owning this land. You will have no further expense to pay after the initial purchase price

Q. How do you pronounce 'Lochaber'

A. 'loch-ARB-ah'

Q. Why should I buy this land?

A. The list is endless. People with a title are seen as wealthier, more attractive and much more successful than a plain Mr, Miss or Mrs. This will boost your self-esteem and increase your confidence. This is more impressive than a gold card, and easier to obtain than waiting for Her Majesty to bestow a title upon you! Bank managers, restaurant and airline check in staff will not be able to help you enough. You could even receive free upgrades.
