A unique and peaceful get away awaits you at ‘Osprey Hide’. Our converted steading has open views over farmland and woodland that stretch over Findhorn Bay. This is a great spot to watch the Moray Ospreys as they range over the Bay. Outside you will find a private spa tub, patio and BBQ area. We are close to Forres and Findhorn Bay is a short walk / bike ride from the door. There are lovely country walks all around us.
I have lived in Scotland for many years now and run an adventure company and rescue training business here. I have owned campervans for more than 25 years and have travelled extensively around Scotland and further afield. I love nothing more than an off-grid adventure somewhere remote and wild and I think the Scottish Highlands are hard to beat! I would be delighted to help with any queries about places to visit or advise on adventures to be had! In 2023 I built a self catering cottage on my land so that guests looking for a more stationery Scottish adventure can enjoy the beautiful area I live in! I available for help with planning activities and can also take you out on a guided adventure on request. We live next door and available to help, or on the mobile number provided.
Beautifully located by Findhorn Bay with nature abundant from the door step. We are surrounded by lovely countryside walks and are a short walk on a country lane to Culbin woodland and to the Bay and ‘ secret’ beaches. Yet only 2 miles from Forres by car or bike along the River towpath into town. Ample private off road parking. Great biking area with many local trails from the door. Forres has a good public transport service with buses around the local area and a train line along the coast which has a stop at Inverness Airport which makes for easy transfers which are available on request. Borrow our canoe and paddle from the house to findhorn village soaking up the surrounding nature and wildfowl
