Rathven Parish Church Hall

This stunning converted parish hall has amazing views over the Moray Firth. Perfect for a couples or family getaway..

This property offers a magnificent open plan living, dining and kitchen area, all on the first floor to maximise the endless sea views. The warm underfloor heating and wood burner give the property a wonderful cosy feeling, while the huge glass windows allow natural light to fill the room, with an amazing view of the Moray Firth.
