Buy Eco-Homes Now

Two of the homes that are scheduled to be built in the Dobwalls Adventure Park site have already been built and are ready for sale. The plan calls for fifteen holiday homes to be built on the site.

These homes will be two bedroom homes with moss sedum roofs and an eco friendly heating system that is energy efficient. The wood used to build the homes comes from sustainable forests and further adds to the environmentally friendly homes.

The owner Malcolm Southern is very pleased with the project so far and hopes that the rest of the plan goes as well. He is quoted as saying, “It has taken a long time but we have completely transformed a significant part of our park into a wonderful natural environment for these unique, contemporary homes.”

He also hopes to build a visitor arts centre on the site as well to further encourage tourism to the area.

The plan does not necessarily thrill the local residents, however, who have voiced complaints at becoming a resort area for rich when local affordable housing is needed. Many have complained that the young people in the area would be unable to afford homes while these vacation homes are being built. They contend that the site should be used for affordable housing for the young people who reside in the area.

Not everyone agrees with these locals and sees the site as a boon to their local economy. The influx of visitors can only bring in money and business to the local area. Having his or her local community seen as a desirable place to own a vacation home is a good thing for everyone in the area.

Only time will tell when the properties are built and sold, how it will affect the community. Until then, the rest of the properties are slated to be built in the future phases of the project.
