The legend that is Bob Dylan has bought a sprawling property in the Scottish highlands.
The singer-songwriter forked out £2.2million on the luxury pad near Nethybridge, Inverness-shire.
The 10 bedroom mansion at the foot of the Cairngorms boasts ‘breathtaking views’, 25 acres of grounds.
The Press & Journal reports that Dylan had previously stayed at the property when it was run as a bed and breakfast and fell in love with it.
Dyland made the purchase at the end of last year along with his brother, under his real name Robert Zimmerman. |

My mother-in-law actually asked me last night did I think he'd be running the B & B himself...
Yeah - you can just imagine coming downstairs in the morning to have Bob Dylan bring you your tea and toast and ask how you want your eggs... |

What a treat that would be for locals if he shows up in the local pub and plays some acoustic! |
