Inverletting · A Journal of Place
A travel journal of architecture, landscape and slow ramblings — and the quiet beginnings of a letting business for Inverclyde.
Inver · West Coast · 2026
The Backstory
Inverletting begins as a journal — a slow record of the places, textures and weather that shape how I think about home. I walk a lot, photograph a little, and write down what a house feels like long before I think about letting it.
The name comes from inver — the mouth of a river, where one thing meets another. That's the idea: a meeting of landscape and building, of wandering and staying, of a journal that will, in time, become a small collection of places to let — all of them in Inverclyde.
For now there are no properties — only the search, which ends in Inverclyde. These pages are where I keep it.

Field Notes
A growing log of walks, weather and buildings — the quiet research behind a future collection of places to stay.

Glencoe, Argyll · October 2026
The glen kept its head in the cloud all morning. I walked the old drove road and tried to photograph the weight of the place rather than its edges — the way a wall holds heat after the sun has gone, the way a valley can feel full even when you can see almost nothing of it.

Cairngorms · September 2026
A single room, a stove, a window that frames exactly one hill. I have been thinking about what a holiday home needs, and how little of it is furniture. The bothy had almost nothing, and felt like more than enough — which is, I suspect, the whole trick.

Isle of Mull · August 2026
The harbour houses are the colour of a weather forecast. I came for the boats and stayed for the rooftops — old slate, new slate, the way a town repairs itself slowly and out of whatever is to hand. A letting business, I think, is the same: a patchwork made deliberate.

Knoydart · July 2026
You reach Knoydart by boat or by a long walk, never by accident. That, I think, is the first rule of a place worth letting — it should ask something of the people who arrive. The road runs out and the place begins.
The Letting Business
For now, Inverletting is a record — a way of learning what makes a place worth staying in before there is anything to let.
In time, the journals become a small, considered collection of homes to let in Inverclyde — chosen to help the towns re-populate, and to raise the quality of everyday living there. If you'd like to know when the first doors open, leave a note.
