Cottage in The Highlands

About this property

Situated in a picturesque village in the Scottish Highlands, Highfield Lodge is a contemporary cottage in a quiet and peaceful area of the village. Strathpeffer sits within a wide valley, surrounded by woodland. The village was once a Victorian spa, attracting many visitors keen to benefit from the healing waters. The centre of the village still retains a Victorian feel, assisted by the grand architecture within. The beautifully restored Pavilion hosts a variety of cultural events, including concerts, plays, and art exhibitions. The Highland Museum of Childhood, located at the restored Victorian railway station explores growing up in the Highlands, whilst demonstrating the local history and traditions. The village is also home to a challenging yet scenic 18 hole golf course, most of which is uphill. There are walks suitable for all abilities surrounding Strathpeffer and the wider area, including the region s highest mountain, Ben Wyvis.
