Craignay lies in a peaceful, south facing position close to Drumnadrochit, a Highland village famous for its setting on Loch Ness in the Great Glen. Although the area is a popular destination for tourists, the surrounding countryside is unspoilt and tranquil, providing a haven for wildlife and offering excellent sporting and leisure opportunities, e.g. golf and fishing. Drumnadrochit offers a sociable village community with a variety of clubs. There are numerous way-marked walks and cycle trails, Glen Affric and Strathfarrar Nature Reserves are nearby, and the Nevis Range Ski Centre near Fort William is within easy reach.Drumnadrochit has a useful range of amenities including shops, pubs, restaurants, a doctors’ surgery and a highly regarded primary and secondary school. Inverness, about half-an-hour’s drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.The owners purchased newly-built Craignay in 2015 and have carried out improvements to the whole property to create a delightful house with comfortable, well-appointed and light-filled accommodation set in attractive grounds. Work carried out includes new flooring throughout, a new kitchen and complete redecoration. The house is energy efficient with high levels of insulation, solar panels to heat the water and the benefits of solar gain.
