East Lodge SCATWELL, MUIR OF ORD, HIGHLAND, IV6 7QG 01463 211 116 Scatwell, Muir of Ord This lovely property was built before 1880 as The East Lodge of Scatwell House which lies in the peaceful heart of Strathconon, considered by many to be one of Scotland’s most beautiful glens situated approximately 6 miles north-west of the village of Marybank. The road terminates at the end of the glen and as a result, receives only light local traffic and remains a very peaceful and desirable location. The surrounding countryside is renowned for its striking scenery ranging from the dramatic mountains, streams and lochs of the Highlands to the semi-ancient native woodlands. There is a choice of primary schooling at either Strathconon or Marybank with senior pupils attending Dingwall Academy, just over 12 miles away. Dingwall, the former county town of Ross & Cromarty, has a large choice of shops, supermarkets, hotels, restaurants and railway station with regular commuter trains to Inverness, the capital city of the Highlands. Acknowledged to be one of the fastest growing cities in Europe, Inverness provides a wide range of retail parks along with excellent cultural, educational, entertainment and medical facilities. Inverness is also well connected by road, rail and air to other UK and overseas destinations. Golfers are not forgotten about with the nearby courses of Muir of Ord & Strathpeffer to choose from and iconic fairways of Royal Dornoch, Nairn and Castle Stuart less than an hour’s drive away.
