Inver Lodge, Strathpeffer

Set in ¾ acre grounds and gardens this house is of late Victorian vintage, built around the turn of the century. Within walking distance of Strathpeffer's centre, Inver Lodge has a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with high standards of accommodation and service. Although modernised to provide optimum levels of comfort, the interior still retains many original features, including open log fires in beautifully furnished surroundings.

The guest bedrooms are tastefully decorated and well equipped with colour television, hairdryer and tea and coffee making facilities. Families can be accommodated in the double/family room, which comfortably sleeps two adults and two children.

Imaginative breakfasts are served each morning at a communal table in the dining room. Dinner is offered by prior notice and is prepared from the finest local produce. All desserts, cakes and petit fours are home baked.

Strathpeffer is a Victorian Spa Village of considerable charm, nestling at the head of a valley which leads onto the foothills of majestic Ben Wyvis. The village has its own 18-hole golf course and delightful walks abound in every direction. For more experienced hill-walkers, Ben Wyvis offers a good day's exercise and the nearby Fannich Hills can take several days to explore fully.
