9 Bed in Forres (oc-ca039)
Surrounded by water on two sides and 5000 acres of the Culbin Forest, the location of this property is truly spectacular and perfect for those who want a get away with an extra special touch. Picnic with all of the family or play games on the huge stretch of beach that lies at the end of an avenue of Irish yew trees. Set just 5 miles away is the beautiful town of Forres, one of Scotland's oldest small towns and home to a variety of craft shops and galleries. Nearby you will also find the eco-village of Findhorn, the Speyside whisky trail, the beaches and golf courses on the Moray coast, and the Moray Firth with its resident dolphins.
Dating from the 17th century, this country house has a distinctly glamorous feel with the combination of traditional touches and modern furnishings throughout. The spacious hallway with cloakroom and WC is perfect for leaving muddy wellies, or sandy shoes after a day exploring and the sun porch with window seats makes the most beautiful spot for some afternoon reading. Downstairs you will also find a stunning kitchen with Aga, a drawing room, sitting room, dining room and then two of the bedrooms – one single and one double with en-suite bathroom.
Heading upstairs, you will find the remaining seven bedrooms and three bathrooms all finished to a very high standard, whilst retaining the traditional charm this property possesses. One of the highlights has to be the roof terrace that allows you to admire the magnificent views across the well-kept gardens and out to the bay. The extensive gardens outside will provide hours of fun for the children in your party, and with the addition of a BBQ, everyone can enjoy warmer evenings with a spot of al fresco dining.
