Rooms for romance in the Scottish Highlands

The intimate and scenic surroundings of Scotland’s most romantic hotel*, The Torridon, provide the perfect Highland hideaway for an unforgettable Valentine’s Day of fine dining, romance and relaxation.

A grand turreted shooting lodge, The Torridon is set in the rugged wilds of the north west Highlands of Scotland, just 75 minutes’ drive from the city of Inverness with its range of air and rail links.

Many of the luxuriously appointed bedrooms boast stunning loch and mountain views as well as freestanding roll-top baths. Each room is individually designed and sumptuously decorated, featuring duck-feather pillows and duvets, fine Egyptian cotton linen, satellite television, fluffy white towels and a bespoke selection of Molton Brown toiletries.

Set in 58 acres of glorious parkland, complete with shaggy-coated Highland cattle, The Torridon and its spectacular environs are made for romantic walks – whether along the coastline with its varied marine wildlife, or in the hills where the red and roe deer roam.

Back indoors, big comfortable couches and slouchy armchairs in front of a roaring fire encourage romantic snuggling, while the intimate wood-panelled malt whisky bar is the perfect place to sample one of the 320 malts on offer.

Award-winning cuisine, prepared by chef Kevin John Broome and his team, completes the magical Torridon experience. Passionate about local produce, Broome uses the finest seafood, game and fresh seasonal vegetables to create two sumptuous Valentine’s dinner menus and hearty Scottish breakfasts.

For total tranquillity, fine food and wine, exceptional service and luxurious accommodation - all within a few hours of Edinburgh, Glasgow and London (via Inverness) – treat your true love to Valentine’s Day at The Torridon this year.

Prices from £230 per room per night including Scottish breakfast, romantic four-course candlelit dinner, box of handmade chocolates in the room and a welcome afternoon tea on arrival.
