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.

Really good location. Heating and hot water were excellent. Comfortable beds . TV easy to use.
We found that the fan only element of the oven was not working but got around this by use fan combined with the grill. Perhaps a few more pots and pans.

Warm, comfortable, all necessary facilities and equipment. Good range of kitchen appliances and utensils. Very effective heating in main living areas. Good TV and DVD facilities for winter evenings. Easy access to good quality suppliers of victuals, restaurants and cafes.
Heating source in bathrooms is a bit puny, particularly in the main bedroom. A more effective oil filled radiator is needed. We were very disappointed to hear that the trees in the quarry are to be felled. As no one enters the quarry they represent a minimal risk but do provide a significant source of food, roosting space and nesting sites for wildlife - a major factor for the many returning users of Roebuck and Swallow. Felling the trees will also have a detrimental impact on the appearance of the quarry, which as the source of stone for the construction of Fort George has a direct historical link with the soon-to-be headquarters of SNH. At first impressions this action does not sound like one that is taking the natural or aesthetic values of the quarry into account. Good Thompson gof5@hotmail.com

Brilliant location. Ideal for a relaxing holiday, with plenty of wildlife to observe. Housekeeping is always top notch. Cottage is always maintained to a high standard and is warm and cosy.
It would be hard to find any!! We wouldn’t keep returning year after year if there were any issues.

We had a lovely holiday in your lovely cottage as we always do. Every thing was as we had anticipated. Very peaceful and quiet and a perfect view from the terrace.
Nothing comes to mind. The only thing missing, was our beautiful old Standard Poodle Rudi who died last Christmas. Bay Farm was top of his holiday list. He loved being there and always looked for his friends the Goats.

I truly love the first sight on a Saturday when I drive down the lane and see the cottages from above, it means I've got a full week to enjoy this special location! It's warm, cosy, spacious and exceptionally clean and has one of the best views in Scotland. I always hate leaving as I feel I've just let the magic of Munlochy Bay works its spell on me, then it's time to go home...I'll be booking for next year.
My only comment would be that the kitchen could do with a bit of an overhaul as well as some of the curtains. Just looks a little jaded. I think the standard of self catering properties (even if you have dogs) is amazing these days and companies like LLH prove this but not enough for me to stop going back to Bay Farm! Just love it.

This cottage is always maintained to a very high standard. Each time we return—-and we’ve been many times—- we always notice fresh decorating, new carpets, or new appliances etc. It is in a beautiful location and if you enjoy wildlife there is lots of that about, including red kites, ospreys, seals red squirrels etc. An ideal spot for “chilling out”. Can’t wait to return.
The track down to the cottage is very challenging for the car’s suspension 😕.
