Planning consent for new office building

There is also a small store/bothy with wood burning stove located at the northeast of the land.

The surrounding mature woodland was planted approximately 50 years ago with a mix of Scots pine and a small proportion of Larch. Parts were felled approximately 15 years ago and replanted with Scots pine, Spruce and Larch to restructure the woodland, which has established well and is now developing into an attractive mixed woodland.

Native broadleaves have also established amongst the conifer adding diversity. Some tracks and paths through the woodland provide the potential for a woodland walk to link with the attractive pond which adds significant appeal to the amenity of the property.

Given the potential hazards within woodland, we ask you to be aware of potential hazards when making your inspection for your own personal safety.

The Black Isle is a peninsula bounded to the north by the Cromarty Firth and the Moray and Beauly Firths to the south. The area is renowned for its fair climate and rich farmland. This arable land, in conjunction with a backdrop of rugged hills, provides spectacular scenery with wonderful views. For the keen golfer there are famous local courses at Rosemarkie and Fortrose, two Nairn championship golf courses as well as facilities at Royal Dornoch, Spey Valley and the Castle Stuart Golf Links. There is salmon fishing on the Rivers Nairn, Findhorn and Spey and shooting is readily available on local estates. The beautiful Spey Valley with its Whisky trail and the ski slopes at the Cairngorms and The Lecht are all within easy driving distance. Inverness, the capital city of the Highlands, lies approximately 18 miles to the southwest. Inverness, a vibrant city, has a full range of retail, educational, leisure and commerce facilities together with a mainline railway station and an airport with flights to a wide range of UK destinations (including London Heathrow) and a limited number of European destinations.
