Baillie Chalet

About this property

Nestling in the breathtakingly beautiful woodland of the Reelig Estate near Beauly and Inverness in Scotland, Baillie Chalet is an attractive chalet which offers guests the ultimate woodland retreat. Ideal for a small family or couple travelling together, the accommodation is literally coddled in ancient forest on the impressive Reelig Estate and combines a well-presented home-from-home with the feeling of being completely immersed in nature. Step into the chalet and visitors are greeted by a warm and welcoming open-plan living area which is simply furnished but still inviting, with a pair of sofas offering the perfect spot to curl up together, either to admire the forest views from the windows or to chill out watching TV.

The kitchen is equipped with enough appliances to be able to whip up hearty food for the holiday party whether it’s a full English breakfast in the morning, a quick brunch before heading out for the day or a sumptuous evening meal after a busy day spent exploring. In the warmer months, make the most of the outside space and enjoy time al fresco soaking up the idyllic forest setting and at night, admire the dark skies as stars twinkle overhead. When it’s bedtime, two ample bedrooms offer a sanctuary of calm for visitors with a double and a twin and a sleek shower room offering the ideal spot for freshening up.

After an invigorating coffee in the morning, it’s time to head out and discover the delights of the local area. From the doorstep, there are all kinds of trails and walks which showcase the breathtaking countryside and wildlife on offer and by car, head to Inverness and Beauly and places of interest such as Merkinch Nature Reserve, Rogie Falls and Urquhart Castle, for days out full of wonder. Baillie Chalet offers guests a memorable break in a woodland sanctuary which is the ultimate Scottish getaway.

The Capital of the Highlands, the city of Inverness, is the gateway to the countless delights of the Highlands of Scotland. Towering mountains, dark lochs, great forests and precipitous sea cliffs are all within easy reach. Of particular note is the legendary Loch Ness, which is surrounded by some truly breathtaking scenery, although most visitors are usually on the lookout for something a bit more mysterious! Just outside the city is the Culloden Battlefield at Culloden Moor (National Trust). The site of the last major battle fought on British soil, there is an award-winning display depicting the battle, whilst a walk on the field serves as a poignant reminder of the clansmen who lost their lives. Inverness itself has much to offer, museums, an art gallery, fine theatre and leisure facilities, not to mention shops, pubs and restaurants. The River Ness flows through the city and both the river and neighbouring Moray Firth are home to a diverse range of wildlife and marine life including red kites, along with dolphins, which can sometimes be seen from the shore, or on trips from the harbour.
