| About Vulcan Cottage... - Vulcan Cottage Guest House, B&B and Holiday Cottage is set in the heart of the traditional Highland village of Muir of Ord and situated along the Moray Firth A862 tourist route.
The original stone cottage was built more than 100 years ago and offers a range of very comfortable living accommodation and delicious home-cooked food to suit all tastes. Although the cottage has been extended over recent years, much of its character has been retained to provide the accommodation and generous facilities that are on offer today.
All of this combines to make Vulcan Cottage an excellent base for your Scottish experience whether it is an action packed weekend, a leisurely break or an annual family holiday. Chapelton Farm Equestrian Centre - Situated on the right hand side of the Dingwall road heading north from the village; and offers lessons or one to two hour hacks for more experienced riders. Glen Ord Distillery - Enjoy a tour of Glen Ord Distillery with a knowledgeable and friendly guide to discover some of the secrets of the ancient craft of distilling. The visitor centre features an attractive exhibition which explains the history of Glen Ord Distillery and reveals the fascinating story of the Black Isle and its people over the centuries. Glen Ord Distillery, was licensed in 1838, distillation having just become legal. Thomas Mackenzie leased a portion of his land ground for a distillery at Croftnallan to Robert Johnstone and D. McLennan - partners of the Ord Distillery Co. - for an annual payment of one shilling. The last survivor of nine distilleries which once operated around Glen Ord. Muir of Ord Golf Club - The course was known originally as the Inverness Golf Club and was designed in part by James Braid. It has a length of 5557 yards with 18 holes and a par of 68. This is a heathland course and 5 new holes have been added over recent years. Facilities include Ladies and Gents changing rooms with showers, practice and putting areas, games room, lounge bar and fully equipped shop. Club trolley and buggy hire can be arranged. Catering is also available at weekends and through the week by prior arrangement. The course was laid out mainly on old arable and rough grazing land in 1875. Visitors are most welcome outside of competition times. The course is situated on the Beauly side of the village, just a short walk from Vulcan Cottage Guest House. Vulcan Cottage History - One of the two blacksmith shops in the village, in the early 1900's was attached to the rear of Vulcan Cottage and remained there until about 1973 with the cycle shop across the way. Today the site of the blacksmith's shop is taken by a rearward extension of the original Vulcan Cottage and the cycle shop has been re-built as an annex and holiday cottage. The photograph shows the cycle shop, Vulcan Cottage and the blacksmith's shop in the 1960's. |
