    The location was beautiful but just very far north

    The house was in a lovely setting- about 20 minute stroll from the town centre. Michelle and her family know the area well and were keen and happy to offer advice and ideas on where to go. The house was beautifully decorated and relaxing. Small...

    Michelle is a passionate warm welcoming host. She went beyond expectations to enhance our stay, be it using the excellent facilities provided, to ideas and suggestions when venturing out. She couldn't of been more helpful to my family and me.

Firlands is set in the beautiful historic town of Forres. Built in 1885 and made in traditional Scottish stone it has an abundance of original features. The house is set in two and a half acres of lush, stunning garden with a variety of protected trees gathered from all over the world. The guest accommodation is at the rear of our home, a Victorian manor, and is newly refurbished with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, luxury self catering facilities and finished to an exceptionally high standard with a private patio area, ample parking and all the modern conveniences. The whole area is child friendly.
I love to spend time working in the gardens and maintaining the house with a great passion for interior design and bringing this beautiful house back to a home for my family and all our wonderful guests to enjoy.
Situated 10 mins walking distance from the town centre and 8 mins walk to Forres Golf club which winds itself around Firlands House, 12 min drive to the Findhorn Bay where there is an assortment of water activities and wildlife. The area is wonderful for walking, sporting activities, eating and general relaxed feeling.
