Balinoe

Balinoe stands in nearly an acre of private landscaped gardens with spectacular unspoilt views. On the western edge of the Black Isle, which despite its name is not an island but a peninsula, Balinoe is close to the towns of Dingwall and Conon Bridge and although in a tranquil and peaceful location is only a 15 minute drive away from the cosmopolitan atmosphere of Inverness, one of Europes up and coming cities. The views across the Conon Valley from the living room, bedrooms and garden take in Ben Wyvis, one of the highest mountains in the UK, and to the east the Cromarty Firth where Bottlenose Dolphins, Seals and a variety of wildlife can be found. The holiday home has a double bedroom with king bed and flat panel TV with Sky+ HD. The twin bedroom has an en suite bathroom. There is a family bathroom with a bath and separate shower cubicle.

The space and in particular the quality of the king-size bed, felt like our own bed at home. We enjoyed a very comfortable and restful 2 weeks and are already planning our return.

Balinoe is an extremely comfortable home set in a most beautiful peaceful location. The 270* panoramic views are stunning. I sat eating dinner one evening watching a golden eagle hovering not too far away! The property is extremely well equipped. To date it is the most pleasant house I have rented.
