Essentials
Reasonable sized store with most consumables you are likely to need. However, the 24 hour Tesco Extra in Inverness has much, much more.

Since the village store closed in 2016, this is now the nearest shop to The Sangar which stocks essentials (although you can also get some stuff at The Loch Insh Boathouse). It is only 5 minutes drive towards Aviemore in the Dalraddy Holiday Park. There are lots of activities also. These include quad bike treks, zip wires, horse riding, stag feeding & photography, archery, clay pigeon shooting. paintball, fishing and more!

The best fish & chips we've enjoyed anywhere. Sit in the restaurant (rather than have a takeaway) and if you are a senior citizen, there's a special "tea" for you at a ridiculously low price. None of our Guests who have tried it were disappointed. Try it. It's great!

Sightseeing
This is the base for skiing in Scotland's largest downhill ski area. Fantastic views even from one of the two lower (free) car parks. For even more stunning views & a visit to the UK's highest restaurant, take the train up to near the summit of Cairngorm. On a clear day, the views are stunning!
Also a great place to view the heavens on a clear, dark night. Some of the clearest skies in Europe let you see millions of stars in a truly breathtaking setting. But wrap up warm, even in summer. Nights in the mountains are usually chilly.

Nessie needs no introduction! You can spend many happy hours driving round the loch or just peering from the banks into the depths of this very deep and narrow waterway. You can also take a cruise & visit the Loch Ness Centre & Exhibition. But if you manage to photograph our monster, your pic or video will pay for your holiday... easily :-)!
