About this property

Luxury Highland Haven with Hot Tub by Loch Ness - Balnacraig Farmhouse

Until recently a working farm, Balnacraig farmhouse, a traditional two-story farmhouse, has been sympathetically renovated to provide the ultimate Highland luxury haven where you can escape and relax. In a unique setting with sweeping views over the Glen- between Loch Ness and the City of Inverness, the secure location has fully fenced gardens offering direct access to wonderful hill and forest walks up to the Great Glen Way, and yet is only minutes away from the amenities of a major town and nearby transport hubs. It is also a perfect starting point to explore the highlands and the North Coast 500 route.

The outdoor space of this secluded farmhouse has its own terrace with sweeping views and is perfect for alfresco dining or just relaxing and warming up in front of the fire pit. Alternatively, unwind in the fairy lit pagoda with its hot tub and soak in the tranquillity and beauty of the Highlands.

The cosy sitting room has a wood burning stove, books, games and smart TV with Freeview, Netflix, Amazon Prime apps etc. So when you are tired of the great outdoors there is an indoor retreat where you can just relax and be entertained.

The extensive kitchen/diner is fully equipped with an integrated fridge/freezer, dishwasher, induction hob, electric oven and every amenity you could wish for. The dining area has a table with seating for up to 5 and has an electric wood burner and a sound docking system.

A separate utility room has a washing machine and tumble dryer, outdoor equipment and plenty of storage.

Two super comfortable bedrooms have king-sized beds. The downstairs bedroom has an en-suite shower room and French windows giving direct access to the garden. Upstairs is the second larger bedroom and a full bathroom with shower and bath.

All linen and bedding is high quality Egyptian cotton from Tielle Loves Luxury as recommended by House and Garden Magazine and Country Life and is also used by many 5* hotels. The bedding is hypoallergenic

All soaps and shampoos are organic and sourced from the Highland Soap Company.

There are integrated stair gates and a cot and high chair can be supplied by request.

I have supplied a comprehensive house manual in which you will find suggestions for day trips, visitor attractions, shops, restaurants etc as well as emergency numbers that you might need during your stay.
