A "substantial" former corn mill that has been converted into a hotel and restaurant has been brought to the market.
The building dates from the early 1800s with the initial conversion made in the 1950s.
The Old Mill Inn is a few minutes from a historic castle originally built by the Clan Brodie.
"Purchased by the current owners in 2018, the business was in need of renovation and refurbishment which the sellers undertook over a period of months, the business is now presented to the market as a fully licensed boutique country hotel with five ensuite rooms, an award winning AA Rosette Restaurant and a self-contained three bedroom owner’s apartment," agent the Business Partnership said.
"The Old Mill Inn enjoys an excellent trading location, just off the A96 at Brodie.
"It sits three miles from the town of Forres and around 23 miles away from the city of Inverness.
"The historic Brodie Castle and Brodie Countryfare retail outlet are within a few minutes' walk."
"Trading with five high standard, boutique letting bedrooms and an intimate and charming restaurant the business trades profitably and closes briefly in January for maintenance."
