Inverbrora Farm

Things to do

This special part of the Highlands has all the expected charm of the wild and untamed country, rich with history, sights to see and, wildlife on land, sea and on the wing!  There is also much to do, ranging from gentle walks along the miles of sandy beach to extreme sports, from mountain biking to surfing our impressive waves.

The Farm

Inverbrora is a working livestock farm with cattle and sheep.

Other Wildlife

Around the farm, the beautiful countryside and seaside features every imaginable habitat.  This leads to a wealth of animals that you can see as nature intended, from the deer in the glens to a wide variety of birds and even sea mammals such as our seals and the occassional visit from a bottlenose dolphin that makes it up from the Moray Firth.  Check out the wildlife section on the local visitor website in the Information pages [Go to Website].
