Built around 1860, the lodge has retained its historic charm, offering a unique and immersive experience. Set on one of the area’s largest and most secluded estates, which spans an impressive 35,000 acres, the lodge’s sweeping drive leads to a dramatic approach, culminating in the stately front entrance. This sets the tone for a stay that feels a million miles away from civilisation, surrounded by the natural beauty and tranquillity of the Scottish Highlands.

Upon entering the impressive reception hall, guests are welcomed by the warmth of a wood-burning stove and the striking presence of a stag’s head (with a fascinating story behind it). From here, the hall leads into the spacious dining room, where stunning views of Loch Crunachdan provide a breathtaking backdrop. The large drawing room, also offering sweeping views, features an open fire and ample seating, creating the perfect space to relax, take in the scenery, or enjoy a quiet moment with a book.

For a deeper dive into history, Culloden Battlefield offers a poignant experience at the site of the last major battle on British soil.
To the southwest lies Fort William, a haven for adventurers and nature lovers alike. Ascend Ben Nevis, the UK’s highest peak, or take a gentler approach with scenic walks in Glen Nevis.
