Highlands

Commuting

The development is a short drive away from the city of Inverness which offers access to the A9 connecting the north coast to the central belt, as well as the A96 to Aberdeen. The A82 runs through the village and provides easy commuting down to Glasgow via Fort William. Inverness airport is around a 45-minute drive from the development.

The service 17 bus route runs from Drumnadrochit to central Inverness bus station proving easy travel to explore the city. See timetable here. 

Facilities

The area offers a range of things to see and do, from exploring Urquhart Castle, situated on the shore of Loch Ness, to hill walking, mountain biking, and fishing.

If you enjoy the great outdoors, then you’re in luck as there are multiple noteworthy walking and cycling routes for you to choose from. The longest route is the Great Glen way which is a huge 79-mile trail stretching from Inverness down to Fort William. For something shorter, there’s a walk to the old hilltop site of Craigmonie and the Divach falls or a circular route exploring the Urquhart Bay woods.

For a family day out, you can visit Nessieland. Explore the caves and find out more about the mystery of the famous monster or take a cruise on the Loch Ness. There’s also a coffee shop and adventure playground for the kids to enjoy. 

The Drumnadrochit development is within walking distance from a selection of cafés, restaurants, and the local supermarket. There is also a post office, pharmacy and fire station situated nearby.

Schools

There are two schools in Drumnadrochit  - a primary and a secondary, Glen Urquhart Primary and High School. They are both a 10-minute walk or 2 minutes in the car from the development.
