Coul House

Nestled in the hills above Contin, just 25 minutes from Inverness, this family-run country house hotel offers scenic surroundings, fine dining, and a relaxing atmosphere. Built in 1821, this unique building exudes traditional charm, complemented by eight acres of woodland and gardens with unspoiled mountain views. Each en-suite room is individually designed and varies in size and shape. The octagonal restaurant specializes in contemporary Scottish cuisine using fresh, local produce. Located in the Northern Highlands, it's an ideal base for exploring attractions like Dunrobin Castle, Rogie Waterfalls, Cawdor Castle, and the Glen Ord Whisky Distillery. Different policies and supplements apply for group bookings.
