FANCY swapping the rat-race for a Monarch of the Glen-style lifestyle?

A couple willing to work as a gardener and housekeepe­r are being sought by the Strathcono­n Estate owned by Danish billionair­e Kjeld Kirk Kristianse­n, whose grandfathe­r invented Lego. The jobs come with free accommodat­ion on the 82,000-acre estate, in Ross-shire, and a ‘competitiv­e salary’.

Meanwhile, another couple are needed to serve as live-in caretakers on the Fasnacloic­h Estate in Appin, Argyll. They will live rent-free in a cottage on the grounds and receive a ‘generous salary’.

Mark Mitchell, of estate managers Bell Ingram, said: ‘This really is a dream job for people who want to live and work in spectacula­r countrysid­e.’
