Inverness & the Highlands

In one day you can conquer a mountain, visit a castle, launch out on a loch and dip into a distillery. Mysterious Loch Ness, atmospheric Culloden, bronze-age standing stones, the Cairngorms National Park. It's all there - romance, wildlife, the great outdoors and a warm Highland welcome.

Not to mention the joys of traditional links golf, with courses to test players of all levels, from the tigers to the rabbits. There's even a championship course rated fifth in the world outside the USA.

Inverness, the capital of the Highlands, with its tempting shops and great selection of pubs, restaurants and late-night venues, is regularly placed in the top five most desirable places to live in the UK. The Eden Court Theatre and Cinema is a short walk from the hotel. And every summer the city's rich events programme includes the drama and dazzle of the Inverness Tattoo.

Inverness is situated in the centre of the Highlands; therefore it is possible to make many day trips to other cities and towns around Scotland.

Day Trips include:

• Fort William

• Isle of Skye

• Orkney

• Aberdeen

• Perth
