Fort George, a large 18th-century fortress near Ardersier, which is just north of the airport. The current fortress has remained in continuous use as a garrison and is open to the public whilst still serving as working army barracks.

In this weekend-long celebration, re-enactors will bring the mighty fortress to life with a living timeline depicting over two thousand years of Scottish history. Wander through the living history camps, dating back to the Picts and Romans. All in all, it is history that the children will not forget being part of!

A lovely property with every home comfort to make our stay very enjoyable. Plenty of space for five of us, and extremely well placed for the airport and many fantastic days out. We enjoyed the local cafe and used the village shop.Would suggest additions to the well-equipped kitchen could be serving spoons/table spoons and a colander. Mattresses in the twin room could do with an upgrade.All in all, a wonderful stay in a great location.

Second time staying at the property, lovely house. Good location for exploring the area, clean, warm & comfortable. Would recommend whoever is responsible for the property should ensure dish towels are available and to check that all light bulbs work, including bedside lamps.

We stayed at the loan in Tornagrain in October as a family with two teenagers, the property is beautiful and in very peaceful location it is approximately 8 miles to Invernes and the same to Nairn beach. We had a very pleasant stay and would highly recommend the property.
