For the past 35 years Bob and Margaret have welcomed guests to their farmhouse
and cottages with many returning again and again from around the world. Easter
Dalziel is set in a superb central location amidst 210 acres of family run farmland.
It is very accessible and lies between the A96 and B9039 seven miles east of Inverness.
Communications are excellent - we are twenty-minute drive from Inverness and
half an hour from Loch Ness. If you come by car there is easy access and ample
off road parking. You can fly from London and be here in two hours! New guests
are surprised to find such peace and quiet only one mile from an airport, however
regulars know they can have a wake up call when they wish!
Around our area, with its wealth of beauty and history, there is an abundance of sight
seeing and sporting opportunities. Virtually every type of Highland scenery is within
range, from mountain to forest, grouse moor to glen, river to seascape so why not stay
for a while?
Whether your visit is for business or pleasure you will find that Easter Dalziel is a
conveniently positioned base.
