The Glengarry Model

A new approach to croft tenancy is set to help landowners create sustainable crofting opportunities while preserving land for the benefit of communities. The Glengarry Model is a package of professionally prepared documents designed to assist landlords in creating new croft tenancies that balance community interests with long-term land stewardship.

Traditional croft tenancies in Scotland come with rights such as assignation, purchase, and succession, which have led to increasing land values, making crofts financially inaccessible to many aspiring crofters. Varying the statutory conditions of croft tenancies provides a viable alternative that grants landlords (whether community body, private individual or private company) greater control, stabilises land values, and ensures access to land for all remains feasible.
