About this listing
BETULA from Latin betula =birch tree your private retreat in the woods – The very Best of Coast & Country.
​The Chalet is situated on 5 acres of private land and sleeps 4, children and pets are welcome! The property offers a living/dining room with a fantastic panoramic window allowing you to connect and enjoy the various wildlife species such as deer, various birds and pheasants or an occasional fox.
There is a fully fitted kitchen including dishwasher, fridge/freezer and electric hub/oven. You will find a kettle, toaster, microwave and kitchen essentials.
There is also a spacious bathroom with bathtub/shower to help you relax and unwind after a days exploring. On the ground floor is a Twin bedroom with 2 more single beds located on the upstairs mezzanine floor. These can alternatively function as one super-king size bed. The 2 single duvets remain.
The heating system is electric and can be managed by our guests to ensures a cosy and comfortable stay all year round. The kitchen and bathroom feature underfloor heating.
Through the patio door you can access the large decking area. There you find a picnic table for alfresco dinning. There is a bench and sunlounges available too. At the back of the property there is a private fire-pit area with benches where you can enjoy the sunset or stars above you, all surrounded by woodland. The fire-pit also functions as a BBQ.
Please note that the chalet does not offer a TV nor a washing machine. However, the free WiFi allows for streaming and there are washing self-service- and launderette facilities in Nairn. There are several EV charging points within a few mile radius e.g. Nairn central Car Park, Logie Steading. Dog owners: the garden is not enclosed.
The chalet provides an excellent base for exploring the Northeast of Scotland, namely the Cairngorm National Park, Speyside, the Highlands and Moray Coast.
The nearest shops and café/restaurants are located in Nairn, approximately 9 miles. The location is rural and private and the chalet is not overlooked. There is no public transport towards the chalet beyond Nairn.
Betula Chalet achieved the Green Tourism Award in Bronze in early 2023 and was awarded 3 stars for self-catering by the VisitScotland Quality Assurance Scheme in June 2023.
Betula Chalet offers the ideal base to explore the spectacular North-East of Scotland. Only a few miles north is Nairn beach, a superb sandy beach with beautiful views across the Moray Firth to the Black Isle. This coastline is home to a resident school of dolphins. There is also a great range of coastal walks in either direction with a nature reserve at ‘Kingsteps’ in the east and a viewpoint to the west.
It is a short drive south to explore the Cairngorms National Park a truly a thrilling land of adventure and discovery and by far the biggest National Park in the UK. It boasts natural gems such as mountains and gorges, forests and rivers, and within the park you will wonder in the delight of ancient highland communities and whisky distilleries.
You are only 20 miles from the historic city of Inverness where the River Ness meets the Moray Firth. The largest city and the cultural capital of the Scottish Highlands. Its Old Town features 19th-century Inverness Cathedral, the mostly 18th-century Old High Church and an indoor Victorian Market selling food, clothing and crafts. Not to forget is the Inverness Castle you can explore, overlooking the city and river. The contemporary Inverness Museum and Art Gallery traces local and Highland history.
You get the best of both worlds: coast and country and if you want, city!
