Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish studio style accommodation. King size bed, private shower and toilet (towels and bedding provided) small fitted kitchen with fridge digit mini oven microwave, living area with Sky Q. Decking area outside. The firepit round the side that can be used as a bbq. Use of the owners washing machine is available. A hairdryer is also in the accommodation. A car/bike is essential as the property is very rural. UK No 1 cycle route is immediately outside.
My name is Ruth and I live on the Black Isle in Scotland. Although it is called the Black Isle, in the summer it is covered in golden fields of wheat, beautiful green trees, there is colour everywhere all year round. At Chanory Point you can see Dolphins jumping and playing in the water, The beautiful Rosemarkie beach for swimming, walking or paddle boarding. Cromarty has a Cinema, craft and art shops and a museum with artifacts from days and times long gone. Restaurants and cafés can be found near the beach and the harbours.
