Which licence

It's been a while since the last time I properly looked into pursuing a private licence, and things seem to have become quite a lot more confusing. So I was looking for a little help.

It's probably best if I describe the type of flying I want to do, then perhaps some of you could make some suggestions as to which licences I should be looking at?

My end goal at the moment is to own a small 2 seater capable of having floats fitted. It could be a 3 axis microlight or a similar plane that is not classed as a microlight. It would also be useful to be able to fly a 4 seater when the need arose. I'm not sure I need to be able to fly in other countries, I just really want to fly in the highlands of Scotland.

I'd rather not have to maintain a full PPL, so I'm assuming an NPPL or LAPL are the licences I should be looking into? Can they both have a float rating added?
