A breathtaking 5 star setting

Aldourie Castle has occupied its prime site on the shores of Loch Ness for hundreds of years. Although less than five miles from Inverness, the estate seems in a world of its own, with an unforgettably atmospheric sense of peace and calm that will soothe the mind.

Aldourie Castle

This historic castle estate offers grandeur and comfort, beauty and tranquillity in a breathtaking 5 star setting on the southern shore of Loch Ness.

Stay for a week, or even a month, and enjoy the ultimate house party: the freedom of an entire castle and estate in one of the world's most iconic locations. For private house parties, celebrations, a business event or even just to get away from it all, Aldourie provides a magical environment on an exclusive basis.

Aldourie Cottages

Aldourie Castle Estate, in its magnificent Scottish Highland setting, boasts a collection of delightful self-catering holiday cottages. Each child-friendly cottage is the perfect location for family holidays in Scotland and is within a short walk of the shoreline of Loch Ness.

"Walking by the shores of Loch Ness and looking back at the castle as I listen to the rustle of leaves, Autumn is my favourite time to stay at this iconic fairy-tale castle. Sitting in the Red Room, beside the fire, enjoying afternoon tea looking down Loch Ness to Fort Augustus, what could be better? The best part of the day is to come...dinner; I wonder what Richard will be serving tonight? Whatever, I know it will be good!"
