Invergloy House

About this property

Spean Bridge 5 miles. Invergloy House is charming, converted coach house and stables dating back some 140 years, resting by the shores of Loch Lochy and close to the small village of Spean Bridge, Lochaber. Conveniently located near many sites of stunning local scenery, including Loch Ness, Ben Nevis and the Commando Memorial, Invergloy House welcomes ten guests, ideal for a family or group of friends looking to explore this beautiful area. After parking up off-road, enter your new home-from-home to be impressed by the characterful décor and original features that extend throughout the property; explore your surroundings, marvelling at the 50 acres of grounds which boast an extensive collection of mature specimen trees, rhododendrons and azaleas where roe deer can sometimes be seen. In the well-equipped kitchen, take advantage of an impressive array of appliances to prepare culinary delights for the whole family before settling down in the formal dining room where you can tuck in and toast over a cold glass of wine. Spend your evenings alfresco, soaking up your surroundings a little while longer, or retreat back inside to the homely sitting room, with its woodburning stove and TV ready to relish some light entertainment. A further family room with woodburning stove provides an idyllic haven for you to take the weight of your feet at the end of a long day and curl up with a book. When sleep calls, retreat upstairs to complete your nighttime routine in one of four bathroom or shower rooms, hunkering down in your chosen bedroom and drifting off into a relaxing slumber. When you’re ready to explore, lace up your walking boots and embark on a hike through the picturesque countryside; the property has a path to its own shingle beach on Loch Lochy where you can relax by the water, and the area is a paradise for walkers, cyclists, climbers, and skiers with the nearby Munros, Nevis Range cycling and ski resort and Glencoe ski resort all within accessible reach. If you're looking for good eats and coffee, head into Spean Bridge, home to the Woollen Mill Cafe, and Fort William has numerous attractions, including cafes, restaurants, a cinema, the Highland Book Store, and the West Highland Museum. The region is also replete with historical landmarks, including the Old Inverlochy Castle, the magnificent system of canal locks known as Neptune's Staircase, and the Jacobite Steam Train. With Aviemore, Speyside and the Harry Potter steam train to Mallaig also on offer here, you’ll have plenty to see and do. Escape to Scotland, with a stay at Invergloy House.
