Company information

The Black Isle Holiday Apartments were once a hotel (The Station Hotel) , originally built back in the late 1800s. Back then there used to be a nearby railway line that was meant to run between Dingwall and Cromarty, but only ever made it as far as Fortrose, never making it to Cromarty. The old railway line is still a popular walk to this day between Avoch and Fortrose. Newley renovated into modern and comfortable, self catering holiday apartments, each apartment is named after Scottish wildlife which can be found near by. Mixing the old with the new: from the outside, you will still see the original Victorian sandstone and inside: tastefully decorated interior.
