DESCRIPTION:

Offering country house living at its finest, Culloden House is an 18^th century Georgian mansion set in forty acres of private grounds. The history of the house is such that at the time of the Jacobite rising in 1745-1746, it was requisitioned by Bonnie Prince Charlie as his lodging and headquarters prior to that fateful, final battle at Culloden Moor in April 1746. Today, guests are free to wander the elegant lawns and parkland, which effuse peace and tranquility.

The public rooms at Culloden House, including a magnificent drawing room, boast chandeliers, marble fireplaces, ornate plasterwork and antiques, while its bedrooms are individually decorated and uphold the character of the house. Each of the 28 guestrooms, ranging from opulent period suites and master rooms to contemporary standard rooms, is of course en-suite and is equipped with every modern facility, catering for the guest’s every whim.

The refined restaurant at the hotel offers an ever-changing five-course menu, prepared by Master Chef Michael Simpson using the finest Scottish produce, while to accompany the fine cuisine, guests may choose from over 120 wines and 30 malt whiskies. Having played some of the world’s finest golf courses, Inverness is the ideal base from which to explore the incredible beauty of the Highlands.
