My husband, Roy Dennis,
and I live in the new house on the croft. For 21 years he was
the RSPB's Highland Officer leaving in 1990 to work as a wildlife
consultant. He now spends much of his time advising on nature
conservation matters at home and abroad, along with writing,
TV/radio work and ornithological fieldwork. He has extensive
knowledge of the area having first worked at Loch Garten in
1960.
My own family has been
in the Highlands since before the 12th century and I have a
strong interest in our traditions and culture.
I run the croft and hill farm which carries a herd of
beef cattle and a flock of blackface sheep, as well as carrying
out several public appointments including being a Commissioner
of the Crofters Commission.
I
have a strong interest and knowledge of the local heritage and
culture and I am willing to share that knowledge with visitors
to the cottage.
Pets are welcome but
please check first. The
Speyside Way walking route and the Sustrans Cycle Route run
within three miles of Inchdryne.
The nearest village, Nethy
Bridge, is three miles distance and has post office, general
store, butcher, Sunday papers and hotels. Grantown-on-Spey
has many excellent shops plus three banks, health centre and
dentist. Limited public transport is available from Nethy Bridge.
Aviemore is the nearest railway station and Inverness is the
nearest airport.
Please don't hesitate
to ask for further information on the house or the area.
Advance ordering of groceries if required, please call.
