Barbaraville is a small settlement on the north shore of Nigg Bay in the Cromarty Firth in the Highland council area of Scotland. Housing dates from 1820 on when local people were allowed to build on packets of land from local estates at Balnagown, Tarbet and Polnicol. Comprising approximately 170 households, there has been recent expansion with the creation of a retirement village at Highland Park which has added some 50 households to the community all of which are occupied by people over the age of 55.
