About
the Fearn Peninsula
The Fearn
Peninsula is the eastern part of the Scottish mainland between the Moray
Firth and the Dornoch Firth.
 |
|
The
area is easily reached from the City of Inverness, capital of
the Highlands; and rewards visitors with a suite of services
to compliment its natural beauty.
Picturesque
villages and outstanding beaches characterise this fertile region
- its long associations with fishing and farming still evident
today.
|
The area
was a Pictish ceremonial landscape, as its many fine examples of carved
stone testify; occupied by Norse settlers in more turbulent times;
and variously the scene of early and enduring agricultural improvements,
a cholera epidemic, a thriving sea-fish industry, oil production, great
sporting estates, the railway, lighthouses, marine ecology and community
economic development.

Exploring
the Fearn Peninsula is an enriching experience, from history
and archaeology, genealogy, natural history, cultural pursuits
and sporting activity, to relaxation in comfortable and friendly
surroundings. By taking the time to visit this remarkably compact,
yet diverse part of Scotland, with its open countryside, dramatic
coastline and big skies, visitors invest in the capacity of the
Fearn Peninsula to exceed
expectations in the future.
