The once tiny picturesque village has set its sights on a huge expansion to become a town servicing the Highland city of Inverness. Houses are being built by the hundreds with new plans tabled all the time. Not everyone is happy as tourists have been attracted to the spot for decades and now the fear is that they may head for other greener more unspoiled climes.

There was a lot of concern that one of the finest buildings in Drumnadrochit, the beautiful former supermarket and takeaway / restaurant would go for good since Scotmid move into a plush bespoke new building on the opposite side of the road.

But, great news! It’s on the market as a renovation project so hopefully a lick of paint will see it shine again in all its glory!
