If you`re in the Fort William area at anytime, try the Nevis Experience, a cable car ride up a mountain, there`s a cafe and shop at the top, and sports for them as wants `em.

Lochardil House hotel in Inverness is lovely or if you head out west along Beauly Firth there's Bunchrew House Hotel. Strathpeffer is worth a visit as is Cawdor Castle and Brodie Castle. Nice restaurant near Brodie (Brodie Countryfare) and Cawdor Tavern is one of our favourite places to eat. Hope you have a lovely holiday.

oh yes, Glencoe is definitely going on the list - have always wanted to go there since I read a great book about it (Witch Light, it's called). Thanks tingaloo

If you have a car and can manage to get to Fort William, go a little bit further to Glencoe and Rannoch Moor. Haunting.

I'll be heading off to the highlands soon with a friend (very excited - haven't been for such a long time!) and am after a few recommendations if anyone has any

Specifically for hotels - after a large hotel in/around Inverness and am willing to pay more for something that's a bit special, but i can't seem to find anything quite right on line! I'm thinking somewhere old with a roaring fire in the evenings since it'll be cold grin

Also, we're planning visits to Skye, the Nessie centre, Urquhart castle, Culloden, maybe fort william (we're hiring a car)...is there anywhere we've missed? Thanks to anyone who has any tips!
