River House offers private, high quality self catering accommodation (4 Star Scottish Tourist Board).

River House exudes charm and character with spacious, light and airy rooms – designed for relaxation. It occupies the whole of the north wing of Spean Lodge and stands above the banks of the River Spean, close to its fine stone bridge.
