Blackhills is a Morayshire Estate consisting of farms, woodlands and moorland. It is situated six miles from Elgin overlooking the Laich of Moray.

The 70 acre woodland garden with lochans, burns and rare plants is a particular attraction. There is a tennis court that is available for the use of guests.
