At this establishment, renovated in 2006, guests will experience
country living at its finest. The hotel is a building in Georgian
style, dating back to the 18th century, and incorporates a
fortified mid-16th century castle set in endless parklands.
Culloden House was requisitioned by Bonnie Prince Charlie during
the Jacobean uprising and used as his lodging and battle
headquarters prior to the fateful and final battle on Culloden Moor
in 1746. The Palladian style interior features ornate plasterwork,
fine antiques, and marble fireplaces to complement the warm
Scottish hospitality. On offer are a total of 28 rooms, in addition
to a lobby area with a reception desk manned around the clock, a

services. Additional amenities include bicycle hire (charges apply)
