Immerse yourself in the charm of the Scottish Highlands, setting your sights on the quintessential town of Tomatin, best known for whisky, salmon fishing and breathtaking scenery. Elevated above the River Findhorn amongst 1,800 acres of beautiful grounds, this spectacular property boasts a rich sporting history and traditional baronial architecture, such as pointed turrets, crow-stepped gables and large bay windows. Wine and dine in utter comfort, enjoying a choice of elegant rooms that are perfect for socialising, including a billiards room for games that last well into the night. The property sleeps a maximum of 20 guests across 12 comfortable bedrooms and a self-contained annexe.

 

Feel like a Scottish Laird from the moment you step inside the magnificent entrance hall with its grand staircase, wooden paneling and decorative accessories that hint of the property’s history. Roaring fires add to the feeling of grandeur, providing plenty of cosy nooks to unwind with a glass of something delicious. The elegant drawing room is a delight for the senses, with wooden arched windows, ornate cornicing and irresistible sofas to sprawl on in front of the woodburner. The kitchen is finished with a surprisingly contemporary flair and equipped with everything you need to prepare a feast, best enjoyed in the grand dining room. Each bedroom is thoughtfully furnished for a restful night’s sleep, decorated to complement the character of the house. At the top of the house the bedrooms have stunning views as far as the eye can see, including a quirky turret room with a handy washbasin. Tucked on the side of the property is the annexe with three additional bedrooms, two of which are accessed via a staircase.
