  • "Firthview is absolutely superb."

    A very comfortable home from home which is spotlessly clean and has everything you could possibly want to enjoy your stay. It is in a very quiet and peaceful location with great views towards the Moray Firth. We enjoy wildlife and birdwatching so really nice to see the deer in the fields outside the lounge window and also the pheasants that regularly passed through the garden as well as the nesting House Martins outside. A great place to stay for all the sites we wanted to visit including Fort Augustus, RSPB Abernethy, John o’ Groats, Brodies Castle and the Dolphin Centre. We had the perfect weeks stay to celebrate our wedding anniversary and would definitely book to stay again. We also received a lovely welcome pack from the owners Anne and Steve, which was very much appreciated.
