About Alness

Located on the shores of the historic Cromarty Firth, just 20 miles north of Inverness, Alness is the largest town in the county of Ross-shire, having grown significantly over the years into a thriving bustling town offering a wide variety of shops, businesses and hotels.  There are a secondary school and a choice of 3 primary schools offering a good standard of education and a focus on the community.

The picturesque High Street has gained significant ‘Britain in Bloom’ success and the town has a tremendous community spirit. This is evident throughout many of the activities which are available in Alness including many clubs and leisure pursuits, a golf course and bowling green, along with many beautiful and historic walks to explore nearby.
