Home description
Heath House is one of 3 luxury houses which provide the perfect base if you want to explore the beautiful landscapes, castles and lochs which Scotland is famous for. Whether you're looking for quiet woodland walks, mountain climbing, skiing, watersports, dolphin watching, fishing, Nessie hunting, nights out or nights in, then you've come to the right place.
No matter what activity you fill your day with, what better way to end it than returning back to your house in the woods, where you can all relax around the large dining table, eating your locally bought produce, cooked to perfection on the Aga. Follow this with a nightcap out on the balcony and just enjoy the peace and quiet.

The Highlands region
2009 is Scotlands Year of the Homecoming, a time to welcome home all the generations of Scots who settled abroad. Its time to see Scotland through your own eyes, and not just through the stories of your forefathers.
At Heath House you are within easy reach of everything the Highlands has to offer. It is the perfect base to explore both near and far, and still be home by nightfall.
Take a day trip to the Isle of Skye and picnic at the foot of the famous Cuillin Hills. Enjoy a boat trip along the Caledonian Canal and across Loch Ness. Spend a day on the slopes, or enjoy a canoe trip around Loch Morlich. Go dolphin watching on the MorayFirth, or take a tour of the many Castles we have to offer.
If you'd rather have a more relaxed day, then spend some time in the City itself, where you can enjoy the variety of shops, restaurants and bars on offer. Visit the local leisure centre, or pop into one of the 3 golf courses available. The choices are endless.
