A rural lodge for couples, close to beaches and the North Coast 500 route. Great area for dolphin-spotting from your hot tub and nature enthusiasts.

Situated in a wonderful cliff-top location with far-reaching views across the beautiful Moray Firth, this light-filled and spacious lodge makes a fabulous holiday home for two. With breathtaking surroundings, this secluded cabin is ideal for couples exploring the beautiful countryside of Ross and Sutherland, and for heading out along the NC500 to discover the Highlands of Scotland.

This welcoming cabin has been decorated in fresh, relaxing shades and charmingly furnished to offer a getaway ideal for unwinding in at the end of a fantastic day. With its low curving walls, a wood burner, large windows, French doors and hot tub, the property also features a charming, decked area perfect for dining alfresco and spotting dolphins in the sea below.

The lodge can be reached by a few steps leading up onto a decked area and through the French doors which lead into the relaxing open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner.
