The Laurels

The Laurels An appealing family home that is great for outdoor enthusiasts that seek a peaceful location. Also on the first floor is a shower room with a shower and WC.
(9)

Just a short drive from Forres with numerous historical attractions close by. Situated by the 24-mile-long disused railway line that is a popular trail with hikers and cyclists, the Dava Way connects the towns of Forres and Grantown on Spey through various moorland, farmland and forestry along the way. Brodie Castle and gardens is a great day out for both adults and children alike, and for whisky

enthusiasts, the nearest distilleries to visit are Dallas Dhu and Benromach, where you can sample some of their finest malts. The nearby seaside town of Findhorn is extremely popular in the summer months, with many visitors taking to the beach and enjoying various watersports and boat trips in the bay. As you enter the property there is a staircase leading to the first floor where to the left you will find a spacious lounge which contains a multifuel stove and a Smart TV, the perfect spot to curl up and watch a film after a day exploring the local area. Moving through the house there is a dining room with a feature fireplace and a comfortable sofa where you can look forward to socialising and enjoying some food and drink with your loved ones. The kitchen is located at the back of the house and contains an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. There is also a small breakfast table that seats four people where you can enjoy your morning coffee and perhaps a bite to eat before you head out for the day. As you head upstairs on the second floor is where all of the bedrooms are located. Each of the three double rooms are of ample size and have been tastefully decorated with a statement wall colour. To complete the property there is a bathroom with a bath with a handheld shower and WC. Outside, there is a beautiful garden which contains lots of mature trees and plants. It extends to approximately two acres and has a patio area where you can enjoy a BBQ and garden furniture that is centred around a fire pit, perfect for those chillier evenings. There is private parking for three cars. We are also dog friendly!

This beautiful, detached property is ideal for a week away in a scenic location. The town of Forres is easily accessible, boasting various shops, pubs and cafés where you can stock up on any essentials and delight in an evening away from the kitchen. Alternatively, travel to the seaside town of Nairn, where you will find fantastic amenities, or why not visit some local smaller highland villages close by.
There are plenty of popular attractions in the area, which offer the chance to discover the adventurous landscape of Scotland, including the Cairngorm Mountains, the famous Loch Ness and the glorious views and coastal attractions from Findhorn.

Address to a Haggis
Robert Burns

Fair fa’ your honest, sonsie face,
Great Chieftain o’ the Puddin-race!
Aboon them a’ ye tak your place,
Painch, tripe, or thairm:
Weel are ye wordy of a grace
As lang ‘s my arm.

The groaning trencher there ye fill,
Your hurdies like a distant hill,
Your pin wad help to mend a mill
In time o’ need,
While thro’ your pores the dews distil
Like amber bead.

His knife see Rustic-labour dight,
An’ cut ye up wi’ ready slight,
Trenching your gushing entrails bright,
Like onie ditch;
And then, O what a glorious sight,
Warm-reekin, rich!

Then, horn for horn, they stretch an’ strive:
Deil tak the hindmost, on they drive,
Till a’ their weel-swall’d kytes belyve
Are bent like drums;
Then auld Guidman, maist like to rive,
Bethankit hums.

Is there that owre his French ragout,
Or olio that wad staw a sow,
Or fricassee wad mak her spew
Wi’ perfect sconner,
Looks down wi’ sneering, scornfu’ view
On sic a dinner?

Poor devil! see him owre his trash,
As feckless as a wither’d rash,
His spindle shank a guid whip-lash,
His nieve a nit;
Thro’ bluidy flood or field to dash,
O how unfit!

But mark the Rustic, haggis-fed,
The trembling earth resounds his tread,
Clap in his walie nieve a blade,
He’ll make it whissle;
An’ legs, an’ arms, an’ heads will sned,
Like taps o’ thrissle.

Ye Pow’rs wha mak mankind your care,
And dish them out their bill o’ fare,
Auld Scotland wants nae skinking ware
That jaups in luggies;
But, if ye wish her gratefu’ prayer,
Gie her a Haggis!
