Geocache Description:

This one is in a small wood between Nairn town and the sea, and could be visited as part of a walk between the two. 


The cache is in the grounds of the Newton Hotel (thanks to them for permission to place it), a 4 star hotel in  which Charlie Chaplin and his family were frequent guests.  It's also next to a field with a couple of resident Heilan' coos, and next to the Achareidh path which joins the A96 with Altonburn Road and the path down to the sea across the golf course.

Walking: From the south-east (the town side) follow either the hotel drive (off Newton Gate) or the Achareidh path slightly to the west of it from the A96.  From the north-west there is an access path from the golf course car park beside the sea and then across the golf course (please be responsible: dogs on lead) that leads up to Altonburn Road opposite the woods.  

From the cache it is a 15 min walk into town or 30-40 mins across the golf course and along the sea front to the central links area.

Parking: in hotel car park, accessed from the A96 or the Altonburn Road
