4-star historic mansion on the shores of the Beauly Firth in Inverness

Historic Character & Rooms

Bunchrew House Hotel occupies a 17th-century Scottish mansion, with parts of the building dating back to 1505. The 16 rooms are individually named after local places and Scottish clans associated with the house. Each room has a fridge with fresh milk supplied daily, and the décor varies by room - from canopy beds to historic panelling.

Dining

The wood-panelled restaurant holds 2 AA Rosettes for high-quality cuisine, a recognition maintained for over 20 years. The menu has also received a Michelin Recommendation. The Cocktail Bar looks out onto the gardens and serves fine malt whiskies beside a log fire.

Facilities & Grounds

The hotel sits within 20 acres of landscaped gardens and woodland on the Beauly Firth. Free electric vehicle charging points (Tesla and non-Tesla) are available on-site. Guests can use the outdoor furniture, picnic area, and sun terrace with views of the water.

The hotel has pet-friendly policies that allow guests to bring their dogs. Staff can create personalised menus for dietary needs - nut allergies, vegan, and other restrictions are handled with advance notice. The hotel is also a venue for weddings and special events, with catering that has earned the 2 AA Rosettes.
