Victorian School House on the stunning Dava Moor in the Scottish Highlands
(20)

Permanently closed.

We bought Dava School House after five years of research and planning to find the ideal property to fulfil our dream of running a bed and breakfast. The School House has undergone a sympathetic conversion project to achieve a comfortable environment which will balance as our home and provide an excellent experience for our guests and visitors; the School Room has been restored to provide an enchan

ting coffee lounge and relaxation area for guests . Dava Moor, which is approximately seven miles from Grantown on Spey, is on the Dava Way, the highland tourist route between Inverness and Aberdeen and the malt whisky trail in Speyside. The area offers a vast array of outdoor activities as well as opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment of local crafts; we have established partnerships with local businesses to offer experience packages for individuals, couples or events such as team building for small companies. Our mission is to share our love of the Highlands and Scotland with our friends, family and future guests through providing a memorable experience, comfortable good quality accommodation and enjoyment of traditional local produce, beers and whiskies.

These beautiful photos of our wee boy were taken by Wild Spirit Photography. I bought a voucher and didn't honestly know if Archie would walk to the outdoor shoot near Fochabers. Archie is 'triggered' by noise when he is outside but thanks to all the work we have done with the fabulous James from JP Dog Training the session was a success. Jo from Wild Spirit showed endless patience and care for Archie and the photos are testament to her approach and immense skill ❤️❤️

One of the distilleries most notable features is its traditional copper pot stills, which have been meticulously crafted to ensure the utmost precision in the distillation process. These stills, combined with the expertise of the master distillers, result in whiskies that are known for their smoothness, complexity, and distinctive character.

With its breathtaking location, time-honored traditions, and commitment to producing exceptional spirits, it has rightfully earned its place as a beloved and respected distillery. Whether you’re a whisky aficionado or simply appreciate the art of craftsmanship, a visit to Aberfeldy Distillery is an experience that should not be missed.

Here's a sentence you might not hear every day...

We want your old socks! 🧦

As part of this weeks Re-love Clothing Fair, we are hoping to create a community rug using...you guessed it. Socks!

Do you have any old, holey, odd socks taking up space and looking for a new home? Are your odd socks lonely and looking for friends? Do you want to reduce waste?

Why not bring them along to the event, and join in on the rug making. Happening throughout the fair.

See you, and your socks there!

*clean socks only please 🤗
