Historic mountain inn in Glen Shiel with views of the Five Sisters of Kintail

Rooms

Each of the 18 rooms has a distinct character reflecting the wilderness lifestyle of the Highlands with warm colours, rustic wooden floors and complementary furniture. Selected rooms offer a private Jacuzzi or sauna for post-hike relaxation. The en-suite bedrooms include super king or zip-and-link beds, soft down linen, and hospitality trays; a drying room is available for hill walkers.

Dining

The Cluanie Bar and Kitchen serves mountain-inspired cuisine with hearty classics like burgers, ribs, steak, plus Scottish/Indian fusion dishes including creamy dal makhni and chicken biryani. Landour Bakehouse, a bakery and patisserie across the road, offers handmade cakes, pastries and sandwiches from recipes dating back to the late 1890's. The hotel also provides a take-away breakfast option for early departures and a well-stocked bar with local craft beers.
