ABOUT
US
Water's Edge has spectacular views over the sea and towards
Culloden with private access to a small beach at the bottom of the garden.
Just 20 minutes drive away from Inverness, enjoy the city while staying in a
beautiful Scottish village setting by the sea. Since we moved here in
November 2006 we have been transforming this lovely house into a spectacular
place to live. We have created three large completely new guest
bedrooms and sparkling new bathrooms, each en suite bedroom is
individual in character and filled with all things special for you to enjoy.
French doors open onto a large terrace with spectacular views
over the sea. Relax in our beautiful sitting room French doors
lead to a courtyard and two more windows look out over the sea. During
the past months we have been working hard, our many hours of hard work have
been rewarded and we are delighted to have achieved our 5 STAR Visit
Scotland award for an exceptional standard, which we had at our
home Millwood House in
Inverness before moving here. We had a few trials and tribulations
along the way, but everyone's hard work means we have the most
beautiful home to which we welcome guests from all over the world to share
with us. Staying here, even the city life can be fully enjoyed. Fortrose is
a beautiful scenic Scottish highland fishing village, just
twenty minutes scenic drive from Inverness, which you can see over the
water from the house. There are two excellent restaurants just a few
minutes walk from the house along with a traditional pub, coffee shop and
all the usual village shops. November saw the opening in the village of
a chocolate shop selling the most delicious home made Belgian Chocolates
and just a few doors away a quality antique shop selling treasures of
times gone by.
From the terraces of our beautiful gardens there are frequent sightings of
dolphins, seals and a family of sea otters live just down the coast.
Sometimes they can be seen in the water at the bottom of
the garden the most exciting of all things, we see them take a walk on our
lawn and roll over and over on the grass, such a privilege to
see and such a very special sight in our garden. Numerous sea
birds and mallard ducks abound in the water's around us. The Fortrose yacht
club is based close to the harbour which is less than one minutes walk
along the beach from the garden and it is an idyllic sight to see the yachts
sailing. If you enjoy fishing we always will have a spare rod for you to
cast a line or two from the bottom of the garden at high tide. The summer
time will bring warmer water, for you to enjoy a swim in the clear
waters of the Moray Firth from the bottom of the garden. It is a little
cold, but I have to say having enjoyed swimming myself many times on warm
sunny days it really is wonderful experience.
We have a laptop computer for sole us for our guests with access to
broadband using a wireless access point or LAN connection with your own
laptop.
The airport is 35 Minutes from Fortrose, there is an airport bus runs every
30 minutes into Inverness city centre to coincide with all flights at the
airport. Taxis are always available just outside the entrance. There is an
excellent bus service to and from Fortrose to Inverness every half hour from
early morning until late.
We hope you will consider coming to stay here with us at Water's Edge, we
feel sure you will love it as much as we do and our welcome will be warm of
that you can be assured. |
