About this property
A detached single-storey timber chalet in an elevated position overlooking the spa village of Strathpeffer. Private veranda with views, superb alternative to the usual Scotland cottages. Note: This cottage is next to Ref. 3557 and together they accommodate 10. EPC Rating: Band D
Strathpeffer is a lovely little spa town 20 miles from Inverness and only four and a half miles from Dingwall. The town grew up after the spring waters were discovered in the 1700s. In 1819 the waters were pronounced to be the healthiest in Britain and visitors to the town can still sample their delights in the old pump house. There are numerous walks around the area and the mountains of Glen Affric and the North West Highlands are close by. There is also good fishing to be enjoyed on lochs or rivers. The old Victorian Railway Station in Strathpeffer now serves as the Highland Museum of Childhood and no doubt will spark many memories. It is also home to local craft workers and shops selling their wares. A great base for exploring this lovely region.
