About this property

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

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.

Fabulous!!

Gorgeous cottage in a fabulous and secluded spot but with the convenience of only being 10 minutes out of Inverness! The cottage was exactly as described and more. The directions and arrival information was detailed and precise and the cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. We would highly recommend and we will be booking again in the near future.

Beautiful Farmhouse

Loved the farmhouse, the interior design, and the attention to detail where everything you needed was catered to. I didn’t find the bed as comfortable but otherwise had a superb stay. I loved the location and the trails that were accessible from the Farmhouse. I only wished I had more time to spend there. Will definitely come back again.

Autumn in Inverness

Balnacraig Farm House is the perfect location for a exploring the city of Inverness and the surrounding countryside. It has all the advantages of a quiet countryside location which is only a short drive into the city. Comfortable and beautifully appointed with serene views over the estate.

A long weekend break

We had a very relaxed break at Balnacraig last weekend. The abundance of routes available for walking walk in the woods behind the house gave us a wide selection of grades ranging from steep mountain bike tracks to more gentle forest roads. The autumn colours made the walks enchanting and drives along the north side of Loch Ness a wonderful visual experience. Balnacraig was spotlessly clean and really comfortable, we had all we required for a home from home experience and it is so well located for ventures north, east and west. We focused on the west and look forward to making a return visit to explore more of Scotland from this location. Highly recommend this property and if it is anything to go by.... all the other properties available for rent at Dochfour.
