Bunchrew House Shortlist*
Inverness, Highland
Good Hotel Guide Review
In a ‘lovely position’ by Beauly Firth, this handsome 17th-century mansion stands in large grounds that lead into woodland laced with walking paths – look out for the brown hares and roe deer who like to visit. Within the hotel are traditionally styled bedrooms and suites with period details, each looking over garden or lake; one has its own conservatory. There are two fireplaces in the drawing room, and a fine collection of malt whiskies in the clubby bar; in the wood-panelled restaurant, Scottish dishes at dinner might include roast loin of Highland lamb, spinach and mushroom stuffing. At breakfast, fuel up on a Highland Scottish grill or pancakes with maple-glazed bacon. ‘We had a very pleasant stay.’
