Description
Your blood might not be blue and your armies might not have conquered any weedy indigenous peoples, but you can still own your very own patch of land, thanks to Laird Or Lady. This wonderful gift box is all you need in order to register yourself as a landowner of Glencairn, Scotland, and for ever more rejoice in the bona-fide, utterly official and legitimate title, Laird of Glencairn!
Glencairn is an area of the Scottish Highlands, and this great gift grants the receiver possession of one sumptuous square foot of luscious Scottish soil within the beautiful Glencairn estate. In addition to granting you the title of laird (or lady), ownership of this parcel of land also grants you access to the Laird's Retreat on the banks of Loch Riddon, complete with free fishing rights and superb camping.
Exotic neighbouring land includes the oldest Stone Age site in Britain, as well as the Long Cairn of Camster, an ancient burial chamber for the first Highland Clan Chiefs (but don't worry, the chances of modern-day border disputes and clan wars are reassuringly slim).
Each gift set is decorated in tartan and includes your registration information, presentation certificate and pen, Proof of Title card, map of Glencairn and information on the Laird's Retreat and the conservational benefits of owning the land. So help support and maintain a fantastic area of national heritage, as well as bagging yourself a great boast down the pub, by pronouncing yourself a Laird Or Lady.
