Short break in Avoch
The Old Chandlery is very spacious and comfortable. It is very well equipped and felt comfortable and homely. The location is great, with a beautiful view out across the harbour and parking very easy. The town is peaceful and pleasant to wander round. The house might benefit from some instructions, for example for refuse emptying and also how to work the tv etc. We had a lovely stay.

Accessible location to do day trips to more remote places. Nice little town with enough facilities in case you don't feel like cooking or just want a little walk with the dog along the water front

A few days in the Black isle
Five days at the end of June 2019 stayed at this cottage, while attending my daughters wedding. Spotless and a good size for four. Great Views and I can't praise the double bed enough, the best sleep I have had in 3 years.
