A gallery, accessed by a pine staircase overlooks the lounge and produces a quiet area with CD, radio, and lots of reference books, and tourist information. Graded 5*, it has solar PV cells, which generate free electricity on sunny days. Highland cattle, which are bred on the croft, graze peacefully in the adjacent fields. There is a patio area, and large garden with lovely views across open countryside to Ben Wyvis. Only 5 miles from Inverness, the thriving capital of the Highlands, the cottage is ideally situated to explore the Black Isle, the northern Highlands, Skye and the west coast, and all the Moray Firth area. The cottage is peacefully situated to enjoy the flora and fauna of the local area, with Red Kytes soaring from nearby woodland, and Dolphins playing off Chanonry Point just 8 miles away. For golfers there are 10 courses within easy reach, including Castkle Stuart, Royal Dornoch, Tain, and Nairn - all championship courses, and for skiers, the Cairngorms are just 45 minutes away. There are pleasant walks from the cottage, and the Black Isle has a network of footpaths, and cycle tracks.
