COVID-19 (Coronavirus)  27 June 2020 update

The Scottish government recently announced that the hospitality industry should prepare to re-open from mid-July. This is great news, however, it is dependent on the rate of infection continuing to reduce in Scotland. 

We are therefore planning to accept bookings and welcome guests from SATURDAY 25 JULY 2020. Please note that travel restrictions to the UK from overseas still apply.

You can be confident that we are taking all necessary precautions against Covid-19. We have just received our “Good to Go” accreditation from Visit Britain. This recognises that we have put in place government and industry guidelines regarding social distancing as well as stringent cleaning and sanitisation procedures.

Please contact us if you have any concerns about your accommodation booking. Please also note that none of our guests will be charged for cancellations should the official date for re-opening be changed by the government or in the event that a second wave of the virus leads to another nationwide lockdown.  Best wishes, Glen and Suzanne.

Researching your ancestry

We can give our staying guests lots of information on the research resources available in the Highlands. Glen is a history graduate with museum and archive experience. He can help you begin exploring your family history or provide advice on how you can continue your detective work.

Wireless internet connection

The Lodge has free wi-fi access everywhere.

Cyclists and motorbikers welcome

We have a lockable store for road or mountain bikes and private off street parking for motorbikes. There’s also a drying room for wet gear and laundry facilities. We are always very pleased to welcome Land’s End to John O’Groats riders – many long distance cyclists have stayed with us over the years.

Make tracks to historic High Bridge

A public footpath now links Spean Bridge to the historic remains of General Wade’s High Bridge. This two mile easy walk meanders through oak and birch woodland and then continues high above the River Spean as it spills through an impressive gorge by the romantic ruins of the bridge. It was at High Bridge that the first shots were fired in the Jacobite Uprising in 1745. You will also have the chance to admire the spectacular mountain panorama from the Commando Memorial.
