On the shores of Loch Gairloch, Shieldaig Lodge is one of the few remaining traditional Highland shooting Lodges open to the public. Situated just a 10 mintue from Gairloch, it offers a snug bar with real fires. Dating back to the 19th century, the property offers rooms with views over the hills or the loch. The rooms include a TV, alarm clock, and tea and coffee making facilities. The en suite bathrooms have complimentary toiletries. In the mornings, Shieldaig Lodge serves full Scottish breakfast. Guests can also enjoy whiskey in the bar and cosy lounges. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas. Set within a 26,000 acre estate, the quiet Shieldaig Lodge is a popular base for hill walking, deer stalking, and fishing. Guests can also enjoy mountain biking over the rugged landscapes of Wester Ross or around Glen Torridon. Day trips from Gairloch include whale-watching expeditions and boat trips to the Shiant Islands. Free private parking is available at the lodge.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

    Booked a classic double room but got upgraded to a superior room overlooking the loch. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was excellent. Good selection for breakfast and it was all nicely cooked.

    Wonderful lodge in a fabulous location. Saw seals and heard owls. Room was comfortable. Friendly and helpful staff. We didn’t have supper at the lodge but came back and had a whisky from the bar (very well stocked) and sat in one of the two...

    Lovely decor of the hotel, keeping its original features and views from the lounges, was exceptional. Big bedrooms and bathrooms, clean throughout. The bathroom had lovely underfloor heating, plus large fluffy towels, much to my partners liking.
