Strathpeffer is a delightful Victorian spa village, quite unlike other villages in the area.   Its wide streets, grand architecture, beautiful gardens and many hotels hark back to its past as a renowned health resort, popular with European royalty. Today, the restoration of its Victorian grandeur, its splendid amenities and its convenient location for Inverness and the Highlands make it popular with residents and tourists alike.

Golfers will love the Strathpeffer Spa Golf Club which undoubtedly offers one of the most scenic golf courses in the north of Scotland, whilst those who simply enjoy the great outdoors will find this location hard to beat.   Set at the head of the River Peffery valley, surrounded by wooded hills offering many scenic walks, Strathpeffer is ideally situated to explore the Easter Ross countryside, dominated by the 3,433 ft summit of Ben Wyvis, whilst being equally close to the areas magnificent coastline.   For those who enjoy tradition, the Strathpeffer and District Pipe Band and local Highland dancers perform in the village square every Saturday in the summer, whilst nearby Castle Leod, home to the Earl of Cromartie, Chief of the Clan Mackenzie, is the venue for the annual Strathpeffer Highland Gathering, held every August.
