I do wonder...... We as a family would love to work a croft. We also like the security that a croft tenancy gives. At the moment we can't afford to buy a croft, even a bare land one. The ones that might just be affordable for us are in Shetland, and that is just a bit to far just now.
Where would crofters advertise sub-letting?
My hopes right now rest mostly on the Crofting Federation List and I am hoping something comes up there, just to get started. I will start up my spinning from home, where we are now and just buy in sheep fleeces. That way I can get a business going (hopefully) and continue that if we get a croft.
