Burn Farm Cottages

In contrast, just ten minutes’ drive away is the lovely area known as the Black Isle which is renowned for the richness of its farmland and the beauty of its rolling hills and coastline.

It is a superb holiday destination, from where you can watch wildlife, play golf, walk, climb or simply tour the easily accessible splendours of Loch Ness, the Spey Valley and the west, east and north coasts.

There are wonderful excursons around and on the Moray and Cromarty Firth, where you can spot dolphins, porpoises, seals and bird life as well as view the remains of an interesting World War 2 Naval base.

For keen golfers, there are 30 golf courses within easy reach, including the championship courses at Royal Dornoch and Nairn.
