LOCH WATTEN

Loch Watten is a short 20 min walk from Highbrook House and can be seen from the driveway. If you want to drive, there is a place to park and will take just a few minutes to drive to.

The name is a tautology, consisting of the word “loch” (of Gaelic origin) and vatn, a Norse word meaning the very same, found in such names as “Þingvallavatn” and Myvatn in Iceland, and “Røssvatnet” and “Møsvatn” in Norway.

It is well known as a good fly fishing loch for brown trout with the local village Watten being located to the south.

The view are very beautiful and it is a lovely place to sit and contemplate.
