The main living area is open plan. This delightful room has high vaulted ceilings and a lovely welcoming wood burner. The cottage is decorated and furnished to a very good standard, with pretty cottage furniture, rugs and soft furnishings from a woollen mill renowned for its high quality furnishings and tartans.

The village is set around the pretty horseshoe-shaped beach with a good selection of amenities including restaurants, a pub, a café and a well-stocked local store and post office. It also has a golf club open to visitors. There are wonderful walks direct from the cottage and numerous places of interest within easy reach. A trip out to the local lighthouse is a must, with the opportunity to spot seals and dolphins along the coastline. The area is also known for its archaeological sites and at the nearby Tarbat Discovery Centre there is a fascinating display of Pictish, Norse and Medieval artefacts. The nearby town of Tain, just 10 minutes’ drive away, provides further facilities.
