5 bedroom detached house for sale

The historic village of Carrbridge is famous for its old packhorse bridge - the oldest stone bridge in the Highlands. It is also centrally located within the Cairngorms National Park, an area of outstanding natural beauty. It boasts an abundance of wildlife and a diversity of year-round recreational and sporting facilities. There are good links with both North and South via the mainline railway station and A9 trunk road. It is also within about a 25-minute drive to Inverness, Nairn and Forres.

There are many amenities available within the village, including shops, hotels, cafes and primary school, as well as a 9-hole golf course, trout and salmon fishing and other leisure facilities, such as the award-winning Landmark Forest Adventure Park, which sits within an ancient pine forest at the South end of the village and attracts many tourists.

Duthil is a small, peaceful hamlet, just a short drive from Carrbridge. At the centre of Duthil stands the Old Parish Church and Burial Ground, a solemn and striking reminder of the area’s deep historical roots. The churchyard is dotted with elaborate 19th-century monuments, many bearing the names of the Clan Grant, giving the village a strong sense of clan heritage and Highland legacy.
