    You can find us on the shores of Loch Linnhe, a stone's throw from some of the world's best hikes, distilleries and castles. Step outside. Breathe in. Out. Go. Our corner of the world may be small, but there is nowhere else we would rather be.


  • A little frayed around the edges, but never boring, we have been welcoming travellers through our doors for generations. Explorers. Soul searchers. Time seekers. All stepping from their world into ours. Oh, and Diego the cat.
