The property

Located in the coastal town of Cromarty's historic conservation area, surrounded by cobbled lanes and listed buildings, this traditional 18th-century dwelling offers everything you could need for a self-catering stay, ideal for exploring the local seaside villages, sandy beaches and bottlenose dolphins found in this beautiful region of Scotland. Paye House is steeped in history; originally owned by the keeper of the County Gaol, it has also served as a general store, doctors’ surgery and a depot for antique toys throughout its life. In the summer months enjoy an evening relaxing in the garden patio area and marvel at the sunset, when the weather is cooler settle in for an evening next to the open fire in the welcoming sitting room, or delve into a good book in the secluded study area. Prepare your meals with locally sourced, fresh produce in the kitchen/diner, a well-equipped space with an impressive range of appliances. For more formal occasions make use of the dining room, ideal for entertaining friends and family. Withdraw upstairs and take your pick from one of three beautifully decorated bedrooms, comprising one king, one double and a twin, all with ample storage. Make use of the spacious bathroom, sinking into a hot bubble bath, or choosing to take a refreshing morning rinse under the overhead shower. Paye House offers an excellent base for exploring this unforgettable region of Scotland within easy reach of Inverness.
