Forres - Forres

En Y. L.

Forres is a historical town just off the Moray Coast in the north-east of Scotland, with floral gardens, a picturesque, historic high street, friendly people and much more.

It’s ideally situated within easy reach of some of the best attractions in Scotland, such as the Moray Coast, Speyside, Loch Ness, North Coast 500, Royal Deeside and the Cairngorms.

It’s far away from the bustle of city life, but this isn’t the middle of nowhere – this is the middle of everywhere!

The attractive town of Forres is one of Scotland’s oldest small towns.

Situated in Moray, about 27 miles north east of the Highland capital of Inverness, the town boasts a classic castle with impressive parks and gardens containing outstanding floral sculptures.

Home to a number of craft shops and art galleries, Forres and the surrounding area hosts a number of cultural events, including the carnival style Culture Day and bi-annual Findhorn Bay Arts Festival in September. In recognition of the communities’ artistic spirit, the Forres area, which also includes Findhorn, Brodie, and Alves has won a 2015 Creative Place Award.

Around 4 miles west of Forres is the 16th century Brodie Castle which has gorgeous grounds, and is blooming with beautiful flowers in season. South of the town, the River Findhorn meanders through this area of great natural beauty with several picnic spots to enjoy on a great family day out.

All that money spent and they only use one of the two platforms. Always check ahead online to see if your train is cancelled "due to lack of staff". The train companies literally have one job to do and normally fail miserably. You're probably better off getting the bus where possible as there's a serious lack of frequency of trains - or staff - on this line! Welcome to the Highlands.
