The Albannach combines old-fashioned country-house elements – steep creaky stairs, stuffed animals, fireplaces and noble antique furniture – with strikingly handsome rooms that range from a sumptuous four-poster to more modern spaces with underfloor heating and, in one case, a private deck with outdoor spa. Glorious views, spacious grounds and great walks in easy striking distance make this a perfect place to base yourself.
The renowned restaurant is closed but the welcoming owners do food at the Caberfeidh in town. The Albannach was for sale at the time of research so things may change.
