Quiet but central house in this quaint town in whisky country
The house is a traditional building, over 300 years old. It's cosy and characterful, with a sunny little garden.
Forres is a busy, historic little town with lots going on. It's close to lovely beaches and beautiful countryside. It's a great centre for walking. We won the competition for the most beautiful High Street in Scotland in 2017.

We were grateful for the information on the area which was so thoughtfully provided. The goodies you left were much enjoyed and the garden produce was lovely. Rennes is a great centre for visiting Brittany. We used the group train ticket to visit Morlaix, Vitre and Aurey and went on the bus to Fougeres. All very different and well worth visiting
La maison est bien située. Emplacement idéal pour visiter Inverness et ses environs. Les échanges avec Kathleen ont été cordiaux. Elle a pris soin de notre maison.
It was lovely coming back to Lothersdale. There are so many lovely walks. It was perfect during lockdown to have so much freedom
