Who would say no to a Scottish castle? | Homes and Property

Who would say no to a Scottish castle?Independence could make it harder for non-Scots to buy a historic Highland pile.

An Englishman's home is his castle, as the saying goes, but Scotland can lay claim to the highest concentration of these historic beauties — more than 2,000 of them — and if you want to buy one, you may have to act fast. With Scots voting on independence tomorrow, the procedure for an English, Welsh or Northern Irish buyer hoping to bag a property north of the border could be about to change forever.
