BRORA

THE HEART OF THE HIGHLANDS

Nestled between golden beaches and rolling hills, Brora is more than just a picturesque stop on the NC500—it’s a thriving community where tradition meets innovation. From our award-winning ice cream shop to our historic golf links, every corner of this Highland village tells a story. And behind it all? Brora Development Trust, the driving force ensuring our home grows stronger while staying true to its roots.

WHY BRORA?

A Small Village with Big Heart – Don’t let the size fool you—Brora punches well above its weight. From launching Scotland’s newest community radio station (Radio Sutherland) to nurturing a youth-led creative hub, this is a place where big ideas take root.
Adventure on Your Doorstep – Surf at the beach, tee off at the 18-hole links course, or explore the NC500 with Brora as your base.
Creative Spirit – Home to artists, knitters, and silversmiths, showcased at The Otter’s Couch, our social enterprise craft shop.
A Place That Looks Forward – Through youth initiatives, sustainability projects, and digital murals, we’re shaping Brora’s future—together.

BRORA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

We’re not just preserving Brora—we’re reimagining it.

From launching Radio Sutherland (by the community, for the community) to preserving and updating the Millenium Mural, every project we tackle is fueled by local voices.

How We Do It:
