Description: Callachy Cottage: The cottage sleeps four in two upstairs bedrooms, a queen sized double and a twin. The bathroom has a full sized bath with shower over. A second toilet is downstairs as are the kitchen/diner, lounge and a utility room containing a freezer and washer/dryer. At the front is a small conservatory where you can and enjoy the superb view which extends to Ben Rinnes about 40 miles away. The cottage, in common with the other homes, has gas central heating, but uniquely also has a solid fuel stove in the lounge. Colour TV, a VCR and DVD recorder are also provided in all properties.

Hopefield Cottage: The cottage kitchens have the same equipment as the Lodges but Hopefield has a gas hob rather than electric, and also a fridge freezer. This cottage sleeps six in two bedrooms, three singles in one and a double and a single in the other. It has a full sized bath with shower over. Hopefield is situated on its own, about 500 metres from the other holiday homes. Set amid fields it has uninterrupted views over the Moray Firth. It has its own enclosed and grassed garden. As with all properties there is ample parking space.

The Lodges: These sleep four in two bedrooms, a double and a twin. Bed linen is provided in all homes. The kitchens have an electric cooker/hob, washer/dryer, fridge, microwave and toaster. All necessary crockery and cutlery is provided as is an iron and ironing board. The kitchen, living and dining area is in one room which opens on to a balcony. The living area has a three piece suite, table and chairs, TV and VCR. The bathroom has a small bath with electric shower over. Shaver sockets are provided in all properties.

Location: The holiday homes are situated on a farm on the Black Isle 16 miles from Inverness and two miles from the seaside village of Rosemarkie. At an altitude of 175 metres the Cottages have clear views over the Moray Firth while the Lodges are set in private grounds overlooking the site of Flowerburn House, burnt down in 1961. The previous existence of the house explains the proliferation of rhododendrons, the azaleas and fine trees such as copper beech, cypress, monkey puzzle and blue atlantic cedar. The appeal of the location is emphasized by the finding of Pictish remains and artefacts in the late 1800's showing its rural charms have been appreciated for centuries.
