Balorrin has a great location - a stone’s throw from the Orrin river and next to the open moorland that stretches across Scotland to the west. At the same time it is only five minutes by car from shops in Muir of Ord and 20 minutes from Inverness. Aultgowrie is the name of the hamlet, which only has half a dozen houses.
Built some 30 years ago to a Swedish design Balorrin has four bedrooms and a spacious kitchen/living area which opens onto the patio looking west. The house has been completely renovated with new central heating, new kitchen, new ensuite master bedroom, new wooden flooring, etc. Facilities include TV/DVD, dishwasher, and washer/dryer.
A spacious garden, enclosed on two sides by drystone walls, surrounds the house at the front and back and there is private parking for two cars. The double garage has become a play space with ping pong table and mountain bikes.
Apart from relaxing in the peaceful surroundings local activities include walking, biking, angling, golf, ornithology, dolphin watching, Loch Ness cruises, distillery visiting etc. Inverness airport is very accessable and the city with cinemas, swimming pool, bowling, theatre and good restaurants is only 20 minutes away. A day trip to Ullapool and the west coast can be reached in 50 minutes.
Other attractions include Ord Distillery (only a mile away), Urquhart Castle on Loch Ness, the Culloden Battlefield, Cawdor Castle, Dunrobbin Castle, and Glen Strathfarrar - National Nature Reserve. Ullapool, Gairloch and the West are only an hour’s drive. The same is true of Aviemore and the Cairngorm National Park. Balorrin is an ideal base for your holiday.
