Company information

We are a well travelled, fun loving family and have been based in the Highlands of Scotland for many years. We all love our outdoor pursuits including golf, walking, climbing, biking, skiing, horse riding and tennis. We are very knowledgeable about the area and can advise the best way to get the most out of your stay.

Property information

A traditional Highland welcome awaits you in our warm and luxurious apartment, only 20mins walk to historic town centre and just beyond its harbour and famed Victorian seaside park. You will be in a quiet residential area with private parking, close to championship golf courses and Nairn's beautiful beaches. It is fully kitted and furnished, a mini-supermarket is around the corner or a large Sainsbury's is within 5 mins drive. Our personal attention and care is on-hand for a most enjoyable stay.

Neighbourhood information

Only 30 minutes away from Inverness, the pretty coastal town of Nairn is one of the sunniest and driest places in Scotland, and the perfect base for your Highland adventure. This family friendly seaside resort boasts three beautiful beaches, two championship golf courses, great shopping and some fantastic cafés and restaurants. Reconnect with nature and take a relaxing stroll through the dunes and forest at the RSPB Culbin Sands Nature Reserve nearby. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife – the Moray Firth is one of the best places in Europe to spot dolphins. Enjoy quiet country roads cycling to the 16th century Brodie Castle or visit fairytale Cawdor Castle and its stunning gardens. Further south, see the mysterious 2,000 year old burial chambers of Clava Cairns, said to be the inspiration for Outlander, or visit the atmospheric Culloden Battlefield and visitor centre, site of the final Jacobite Rising – the last and most harrowing pitched battle to be fought on British soil. Transport: easily accessible by car, train at Nairn Station, and from Inverness Airport Recommended restaurants Classroom Sundancer
