Inverlochy Castle, Scotland

Description: Inverlochy Castle

Standing in the heart of the western Highlands, and with fabulous views of Ben Nevis, Inverlochy Castle is a historic property situated in a magnificent noble castle, originally built in 1863 near the site of the original 13th century fortress. After a long and eventful history, including a visit from Queen Victoria, this fabulous property now offers five-star accommodation and fine cuisine in a spectacular Highland setting.

Ideal for relaxing visits to this beautiful region, Inverlochy Castle is located at the end of the Great Glen, which runs from Inverness to Fort William, and is within easy reach of some of the most important landmarks and attractions of this magnificent area. Close to Ben Nevis, Scotland's highest mountain, the beautiful lochs of Loch Linnhe, Loch Lochy and Loch Ness are also a short drive away. Outdoor activities available in the area include hiking, hunting and fishing, mountain biking, and golf. In winter, skiing is available at the nearby Nevis Range Mountain Resort. Another fabulous attraction is the Jacobite Steam Railway, running from Fort William to Arisaig through some of the most spectacular scenery in the region.
