The house is located on the edge of the village of Craigellachie, with a stunning view of the Spey. It's a very spacious property so ideal for a get-together with friends or family in the Scottish highlands.

The village is home to two distilleries (Craigellachie Distillery and Macallan Distillery) and the Speyside Cooperage - the only cooperage in the UK where you can see the ancient craft being practised.

The Speyside Way walking route passes through Craigellachie and the path along the river is stunning at all times of the year - the autumn colours are spectacular. You can fish for salmon and trout on the River Spey, with some of the finest beats within walking distance - this is a perfect house if you want a fishing holiday in Scotland. It has been the owners' fishing lodge for over 35 years and is very well equipped for fishermen - there's a garage for storing waders and rods and a chest freezer for your catch.
