Glencarron Lodge, Strathcarron, Highland, Scotland - Sleeps 18

Glencarron Lodge is a traditional Scottish Highland Victorian shooting lodge. Although the owners have modernised it with efficient heating and provided contemporary conveniences like WiFi, it retains many original features and is decorated in a style which suits the property. There is nothing fake about Glencarron Lodge - it's the real Highland deal!

Accommodation Comprises:

The authentic layout means that most of the living space is on the ground floor, while the bedrooms and bathrooms are on the floors above. There is one single bedroom with access to its own cloakroom with WC and hand basin on the lower floor.

Downstairs:

• One of the biggest issues about group holidays is catering for everyone. However, the kitchen at Glencarron Lodge is extremely well suited to keeping everyone fed and happy. It has a large working double oven AGA as well as a contemporary electric cooker with two ovens, microwave, and two dishwashers for quick cleaning up. Ample cupboard space and three large fridges and a freezer make it possible to easily store all your supplies, even if you're cooking three times a day for a full house.
• The formal dining room has fantastic views across the estate and is furnished with a dining table and chairs to seat up to 20 people. It is a spacious and light filled room with original floorboards and warm colours that make it feel welcoming and cosy.
• The drawing room is another beautiful place to relax. It has a dual aspect and enjoys lots of natural light and garden views, and with comfortable seating and a large working fireplace, it is a lovely place to sit and read or chat after a busy, fun-filled day.
• Glencarron Lodge is well appointed to accommodate everyone's interests. There are two games rooms (one with table tennis and the other with a pool table) and a TV and games room furnished with children and teenagers in mind.

Upstairs:

• Glencarron Lodge has 10 further bedrooms on the two upper floors - two doubles, seven twin bedrooms, and one further single (the first single being on the lower floor). Two cots are also available on request. All rooms are very comfortably furnished with quality linen and cosy quilts, with all having central heating and several having original fireplaces adding to the charm. One of the double bedrooms has its own access to a family bathroom and can be used as an en suite bedroom.
• There are six family bathrooms. Some have a large roll top bath while others have a bath and/or a shower.
