Overview
Discover the beauty of Loch Ness
The grandeur of a castle and the comfort of a home, Aldourie is on the shoreline of Loch Ness surrounded by 500 acres of gardens, woodland, and wildflower meadows. The castle’s three floors offer rooms for all occasions, from formal banquets in the Dining Room featuring handpicked produce from the garden to laid-back lunches on the Terrace overlooking the Loch.
There are 12 bedrooms situated on the upper floors, all bathed in natural light and showcasing Scottish country house design. Each room is individually decorated yet blends in perfectly with the next.
The estate is filled with beautiful spaces for reflection and relaxation, from the Boathouse with its uninterrupted Loch views to the light-filled Orangery in the shelter of the Walled
