Wester Ross, Highlands
A Victorian shooting lodge on the shores of Loch Torridon, framed by some of the most dramatic mountains in Britain. The whisky bar has more than 350 bottles and the Highland cattle outside have impressive fringes.
Family-run, cosy and full of genuine warmth. Dogs are very welcome and the walking is spectacular.
