News from Connoisseurs Scotland
Inver Lodge, overlooking the quiet village of Lochinver, and Blanefield House, an exclusive-use property a stone’s throw away from the island of Ailsa Craig, have joined Connoisseurs Scotland’s impressive collection of properties – and Inver Lodge is celebrating with a special offer for the coming season.
Both provide luxury accommodations on the breathtaking west coast. Each offers a unique experience defined by stunning vistas, award-winning cuisine and outdoor activities ranging from championship golf to bird watching.
A luxurious haven in Scotland’s rugged northern Highlands, Inver Lodge is an ideal retreat for those seeking to experience nature without forsaking comfort. Guests choose from 22 spacious rooms – including four superior, two executive and a suite – with views of Loch Inver and the western sea, and can dine at Chez Roux, where award-winning chef Albert Roux creates traditional Scottish cuisine from fresh local produce and seafood, Highland lamb and the best of Scottish beef. Although best known for its plentiful salmon and trout fishing, the diverse countryside is also perfect for anglers, walkers and bird-watchers. From mid-August until the end of October, Inver Lodge is offering a “Dinner, Bed and Breakfast” special for £125 ($199*) per person, double occupancy. For more information, contact stay@inverlodge.com.
The Blanefield Luxury Country House, an exclusive-use property set in magnificent garden grounds, provides a more private getaway – and is located a mere three miles from Turnberry Golf Course, recognized as one of the finest courses in the world. With six individual suites, a library, a magnificent great hall, a drawing room with open fires and a fully-fitted professional kitchen – which can be staffed and serviced upon request – the property is perfect for occasions ranging from family get-togethers to corporate team building. In addition to excellent golf, guests can also take part in field sports such as pheasant shoots, grouse moors and salmon fishing, or take advantage of excellent sailing at the yachting marinas of Troon, Largs and Inverkip.
