Bay Farm consists of two specifically designed self-catering holiday cottages, Roebuck Cottage and Swallow Cottage, and built on the site of an old farm steading in 2000. Overlooking Munlochy Bay on the southeast side of the Black Isle, the cottages command superb views across the bay and the forested hills and farmland on the south shore, with the mountains of Strathconon in the distance. Well off the beaten track, and in quiet rural surroundings but within a short drive of Inverness, Bay Farm is a haven for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Roebuck Cottage is a charming cottage that offers open plan, spacious and bright living accommodation. This self-catering cottage has one king en-suite bedroom and one twin en-suite bedroom, sleeping four guests. The accommodation is principally on the ground floor and is fully accessible by wheelchair.

The double bedroom comprises king-size bed and plenty of hanging and drawer space. Lovely views over the bay. The en-suite bathroom has a bath with shower, wash hand basin, and W.C.

Brilliant views. Great for short walks. Very convenient for local shopping (local shops of high quality). Peace and quiet. Excellent birdwatching. Very comfortable bedrooms. Bathrooms spacious. Well equipped kitchen. Broadband service good. Bright and spacious living space. Very good dining table. 5 star neighbours in Colin, Jane, Bran and Nanny.
After fourteen years of visits to Roebuck/Swallow I still feel I want to be there more often and for longer visits. But I also feel that the layout of the sitting areas needs a rethink. I can understand the changes in Roebuck to laminate floor and leather chairs as pets are present but it has given the cottage a less comfortable feel. The current arrangement could I think be enhanced with the introduction of a television in this sitting area (I see a cable has been installed) and some rearrangement of seating. A tv with catch up facility (eg BBC iPlayer) would be useful. Many people might wonder why I consider an indoor source of diversion necessary in such a beautiful location. But in winter, with long dark evenings and an elderly relative in tow, it would be helpful.
In the meantime I shall continue to open the wine, enjoy Jane and Colin's company (doesn't he look smart in his trews?) and delve further into the Empire under Heape.
Best wishe to everyone at Country Cottage Holidays and thank you for your evcellent service.

The beautiful, tranquil position overlooking Munlochy Bay, and the unique opportunity that it offers to watch wildlife right on the doorstep.
The cottage itself is superb, being very well equipped and comfortable.
Gillian (the housekeeper) does a remarkable job in maintaining a very high standard of cleanliness and we're always made to feel so welcome. And as our recent holiday must have been our 10th visit to Bay Farm cottages, that this speaks for itself as to how much we love holidaying with you.

the wonderful views across Munlochy Bay & the closeness to wildlife & birdlife. It is a tranquil spot but you do not feel isolated. I would thoroughly recommend this property & the adjoining Swallow Cottage to anyone who wished to holiday on the Black Isle. Perfect!!

To make it even more perfect it would be great if there could be a movable ramp in front of the French doors for disabled guests.

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is great to, on the one hand discover Scotland, but on the other hand also spend some relaxed time at "home". Overlooking the bay we had a really good time with the quietness and nature around us. The administration was uncomplicated, flexible and we felt very welcome.

The location. The 'homeliness'. The stunning wildlife. The ease of booking on-line (with the help of people like Julie Metcalfe who is very patient with people like us who aren't brilliant on computers!)
Going home!

The location, the view and the peacefulness. We also find the cottage is very central for visiting places and not too far off the beaten track. Moving the T.V. downstairs is an exellent idea, much more comfortable. Thank you also for the goody basket it was much appreciated.
The hairpin bend as you arrive at the cottage. Missing the salt bin and the marker stones is a challenge for a large car, especially after dark. Perhaps approaching from a different direction might be be a better option if it was possible.
