Other attractions include Inverness Castle, St Andrews Cathedral and Eden Court Theatre. Loch Ness is only (24 miles) to the west with Dores and Loch Ness beaches. Take the opportunity to drive around Loch Ness to Drumnadrochit, go on a Loch Ness boat trip or visit Urquhart Castle. Tomatin Distillery is 12 miles south and the now very famous Clava Cairns (9 miles) and Culloden Battlefield (8 miles) are to the northeast. If a day in the outdoors is what you are looking for, then Aviemore is only 27 miles to the south.

This open-plan and welcoming home is luxurious with underfloor heating throughout.

Superb location to use as both a base and time to rest and relax. Everything you need and more. The picture window was mesmerising, watching the clouds across the mountains and tree tops change hourly through the Hare in front of the window. Owner Mags is approachable, helpful and friendly. You would never know it was a 10 minute drive to InvernessRead more. 10 minutes to a choice of 2 Tesco Extra or Morrisons. Petrol was never a worry. We had 2 weeks, 1 would not have been enough. Definitely go back. Hide
