Balmacara is crofting estate of 5,616 acres with outstanding views of Skye and Applecross. Traditional crofting is still carried out at Drumbuie and Duirinish, and Plockton is an Outstanding Conservation Area.
Lockalsh Woodland Garden provides pleasant sheltered walks beside the shores of Loch Alsh. Mature Scots pine, oaks and beeches with developing collections of rhododendrons, ferns, bamboo, fuchsias and hydrangeas all flourish. There is a kiosk with informal interpretation of the garden and estate. |
