Inver Lodge Hotel

Inver Lodge is a 5 star hotel overlooking Loch Inver in Sutherland. The hotel is nestled on top of a rocky hill and is surrounded by mountains.

The fishing village of Lochinver is a short walk away and on a clear day you can look across the water to the Western Isles. It’s a great location for spotting wildlife like deer, seals, golden eagles, trout and salmon.
Guests can enjoy afternoon tea in front of the log fire in the foyer lounge or a malt whisky in the bar. Other facilities include a sauna, shop and snooker table.

Inver Lodge hotel is a two-hour drive from Inverness Dalcross Airport, and a five-hour drive from both Glasgow and Edinburgh city centres.

Lochview bedrooms

Each of the hotel’s 21 rooms have spectacular views over the loch, meaning the minute you arrive you’ll be able to soak in the highland atmosphere. Every bedroom has a flat screen TV, minibar, desk, wifi, phone and hot drink making facilities. The rooms are decorated in a traditional highland style and all doubles have king size beds.

Soothing massage

Where better to unwind with a massage than in a tranquil lochside location? The hotel’s Holistic Therapist, Sheila Cunningham, offers a range of in-room treatments including a full body massage, back and shoulders massage and the Bowen Technique.

After your pampering session, you could pop to the sauna to double up on the relaxation. Alternatively, you could treat yourself to afternoon tea with a glass of fizz in front of the log fire.

Stunning Sutherland

Inver Lodge is in the Dee Valley, an ideal spot for outdoor lovers. You could spend the day hiking, climbing, mountain biking, golfing, fishing, angling or birdwatching before dining back at the hotel.

Inver Lodge is overlooked by the wildlife-filled Canisp and Suilven mountains and the loch harbour is home to seals. Lochinver village is a 12-minute walk away and has various craft shops to browse. If you’re feeling energetic, you could hike the ten miles to Loch Assynt to try to spot the legendary mermaid who’s said to lurk beneath the waters.
