Location & Situation
Ardioch is located between Keith (3 miles) and Fochabers (7 miles), off the A96, and less than a mile north-east from Aultmore. The farm property forms a contiguous block of iacs registered land with centrally located dwelling and farm buildings.
Keith has a good range of shops including supermarkets, together with business, banking and leisure facilities which include tennis courts, cricket and bowling clubs, a sports and community centre and swimming pool. Keith Golf Club has an 18-hole parkland golf course with other popular courses in the area including Buckpool at Buckie, Banff, Cullen, Maverstone and Lossiemouth.
The catchment for primary education is Keith Primary School, with secondary education at Keith Grammar School. Inverness and Aberdeen Airports are easily reached via the A96 and Inverness (52 miles) and Aberdeen (50 miles) provide all the facilities expected of major cities. There is a railway station in Keith on the Aberdeen to Inverness line, easing longer-distance travel by public transport.
The Keith Country Show held at Seafield park is a popular annual event attracting interest from the farming and wider community. Keith is also the start of the ever-popular Malt Whisky Trail.
Elgin, only 16 miles in distance provides a wide range of services and facilities as the principal Moray town. Moray is well served by agricultural merchants and grain merchants and there is a successful local machinery ring which can provide additional farming resources as required. The Moray coast, about 9 miles to the north, is famed for its high levels of sunshine, beautiful beaches, dolphins, wonderful sailing, traditional fishing villages and towns, such as Cullen and Portsoy. To the southwest lie the Cairngorms, offering wonderful walking and mountaineering. There is skiing at The Lecht ski centre and at Cairngorm Mountain near Aviemore.
