The Old School Errogie

Situated within the small hamlet of Errogie in Stratherrick, with beautiful views over Loch Mhor and the Monadhliaths, the Old Schoolhouse has a wonderful atmosphere and is a perfect base to explore this little known strath. Built in 1878, and a teacher’s house for over a hundred years, the Old Schoolhouse adjoins the Old School (now home to the owners). The area is rich in history and in wildlife: from hut circles and carins to battlefields and castles; while pine marten, deer, red squirrels, osprey, Slavonian grebes and divers are all seen nearby.

With miles of tracks, quiet roads and forest, or the open solitude of hill and moor, there is plenty of scope for cycling and walking straight from the house. Why not fish from the loch shore, or visit Loch Ness and the Falls of Foyers via the ancient Pass of Inverfarigaig?

Stratherrick also makes for a good base to explore further afield: the sands of the Moray coast, Cairngorms National Park, the Caledonian forests of Glen Affric, Skye and the west, and the year round resorts of Aviemore and Ben Nevis for mountain biking, watersports, skiing and snowboarding … while Inverness is within easy reach for shopping, theatre, cinema and leisure facilities.

The Old Schoolhouse has been simply and tastefully modernized to a high standard, retaining much of its original character.
