Situated in gloriously peaceful woodland by an enchanting lochan, the 8 lodges stand in a sheltered valley four miles from the delightful country town of Forres. The countyside around consists of rich farmland, pine forests and wild moorland. The local area enjoys a favourable climate thanks to the warming effect of the Gulf Stream in the Moray Firth. The area has a wide variety of historical sites within close proximity, including Brodie and Cawdor Castles. There are a large number of coastal and woodland walks including Culbin Forest, and it is possible to see a number of birds of prey including Ospreys at Boat of Garten. The Malt Whisky trail allows visits to a large number of distilleries and an opportunity to sample Scotland’s most famous product. Also dolphin watching in the Moray Firth, numerous golf courses and cycle routes. Lots of shopping possibilities with craft centres and of course a multitude of activity and wildlife centres for families. .
