Where to stay

Some of the wonderful places to stay that we frequently recommended.

Dornoch Castle £££££

Scotland
Boutique

A 500-year-old converted Scottish castle that’s paired with the inspiring 12th-century Dornoch Cathedral directly opposite. This historic hotel is full of character and boasts its own highly-rated distillery and close links to plenty of activities, including first-rate golf courses.

Duisdale House £££££

Scotland
Boutique

Built in 1865 as a hunting lodge, Duisdale House was given a new lease of life when it was refurbished to create an immaculate, stylish boutique hotel. And the critics agree – with this acclaim being reflected in the awards won by the hotel, including Scotland’s Independent Hotel of the Year.

Sheildaig Lodge £££££

Scotland
Boutique

Described as “The ultimate Highland hideaway” – in The Times, this stay is a recently refurbished Victorian hunting lodge perfectly placed in a 26,000-acre estate of wild West Highlands scenery next to Shieldaig Bay.

Ardhru House £££££

Scotland
Boutique

An intricately restored Scottish Baronial manor hiding between the great Ben Nevis and Loch Linnhe, offering sweeping views from Glencoe all the way to Isle of Mull and across to Ardnamurchan peninsula.

Rua Reidh Lighthouse £££££

Scotland
Boutique

Built in 1912 by David Alan Stevenson, cousin of the writer Robert Louis Stephenson, the Rua Reidh Lighthouse is one of the most remote and wildest locations in Britain. A narrow, winding single-track road follows precipitous cliffs to the end of the peninsula – from there, the remote location opens up to create unforgettable views and plenty of potential to explore the landscapes.

Waldorf Astoria The Caledonian £££££

Scotland
City

‘The Caley’, as it is affectionately known among Edinburgh locals, has embodied the very best in Scottish hospitality for over a hundred years. Situated at the west end of Princes Street in Edinburgh, this former Victorian railway hotel nestles in the shadow of the historic Edinburgh Castle and is just a two-minute walk from the designer stores and fashionable bars of George Street.
