Culloden House: Where History Meets Luxury Guide

Culloden House is a magnificent country house hotel steeped in history and surrounded by beautiful parkland. While primarily a hotel, its historical significance makes it a worthwhile visit for those interested in the Jacobite rising and the Battle of Culloden. Imagine walking the same halls as Bonnie Prince Charlie, who used the house as his headquarters before the fateful battle. The history of Culloden House stretches back centuries, but it is most famously associated with the Jacobite rising of 1745. Bonnie Prince Charlie stayed at the house in the days leading up to the Battle of Culloden in 1746. After the battle, the house was briefly occupied by government troops. The house has been rebuilt and renovated over the years, but it retains much of its original character and charm. While you can't freely roam the hotel as a non-guest, you can often enjoy afternoon tea or a meal in the restaurant, allowing you to soak in the atmosphere and imagine the events that unfolded within its walls. The grounds are also worth exploring, offering peaceful walks and stunning views. Consider booking a stay to fully immerse yourself in the history and luxury of Culloden House. The restaurant offers a fine dining experience with a focus on Scottish ingredients.
