Hotels in the Highlands
Our Highlands hotels are well placed for your exploration of the beautiful Highlands in Scotland.
From unspoilt beaches and coastlines, and vast peatlands that remain untouched, to breathtaking mountains and stunning glens, the Highlands of Scotland have many points of beauty and interest to please the discerning traveller.
For connoisseurs of Scotch Whisky, a visit to the Scottish Highlands would not be complete without a trip to one of the distilleries, such as the Pulteney Distillery in Caithness.
Achanarras Quarry is a world famous for its fossil fish, once contained in a very large lake that covered the area 380 million years ago. Alternatively, for those who prefer fresher fish, the river Spey is widely recognised as one of Scotland's best salmon rivers, attracting anglers from all over the world.
Featured hotels in the Highlands
Forss House Hotel is a unique establishment just five miles west of Thurso, facing the Orkney Islands, in an unspoiled corner of Scotland. There are splendid walks from the hotel down to the beach, diverse wildlife is all around and there are several James Braid-designed links courses for the golfer in the area. The late Queen Mother's Castle of Mey is nearby. The AA Ros Ros Restaurant serves seasonal produce straight from the rivers, coastline and estates that surround the hotel. After dinner guests can choose from one of 400 malt whiskies.
Some Hotels in the Highland Region of Scotland are closed for part of the year. Where we have that information, we have included it. We have divided The Highland Region into three parts: the Northern Highlands - Caithness, Sutherland, Orkneys & Outer Hebrides; the Inverness area and the Southern Highlands, Fort William & Skye.
