Ledgowan offers something to suit all pockets...

Ledgowan offers something to suit all pockets - en-suite hotel accommodation, bunkhouse for walkers, and a campsite for tents, caravans or campervans. With the latter two also able to enjoy the facilities of the hotel, the bar, restaurant and lounge. And, we're open all day for lunch and evening meals in the bar or restaurant, as well as afternoon teas.

There are so many things to see up here - something for everyone, providing you accept that the weather is very changeable. You're likely to experience all four seasons in one day!

That said, we've beautiful (and clean) golden sandy beaches (Redpoint, for one), plenty of activities available for the active (such as hill walking and Munro bagging), wildlife watching - organised or do you own thing (if you want you can just sit in the hotel garden to catch a glimpse of red deer!), National Trust properties (Inverewe is just up the road). And, history in abundance (the Pictish trail - just one example) and lots of great events happening over the next few months (Highland Games). And for those in search of Game, stalking and fishing can be arranged for you.

If you haven't yet experienced the warmth of the welcome in the Highlands, and it's not a myth, do come and see us.

At the hotel, over the coming months we're planning a number of events, too, and those already scheduled are:

29 August:
Arts, Crafts and Gifts fair (with car boot). Open from 11am to 4pm. Admission free.

9 September (*special B&B rate):
Otter Talk by Paul Yoxon, of the Skye-based International Otter Survival Fund (IOSF). Start: 7.30pm. Admission: by donation - Paul makes no charge for his talks, therefore all proceeds from the evening will go to the IOSF to help with the upkeep of the baby otters in their care, before release back into the wild.

Otter Talk

Here at Ledgowan we organise many events, and we think that you'll find this one appealing, especially if you're keen on wildlife.

On Wednesday, 9 September, at 7.30pm, Paul Yoxon will be giving a talk about Otters and the work he and his wife, Grace and their team, carry out within their Skye-based charity The International Otter Survival Fund

Paul has agreed to take time out from his busy schedule, to come along to Ledgowan to give us an insight into this beautiful and endangered creature.

Admission is by donation, and will go towards the upkeep of the baby otters which Paul and Grace nurture before release into the wild.

Plus the hotel will be running a raffle on the evening to help raise further funds for the IOSF. (We're told there's going to be an 'ottery' prize).

If you'd like to help Otters take a look at their website at www.otter.org - there you'll find the otter cam showing you the latest baby otters being looked after before release back into the wild, plus, coming up soon is a very important week for otters (and humans too) - The Otterly Mad Week (30 May to 6 June).

Also, if you're wanting to come along on the 9 September, but have to travel a distance, and would like overnight accommodation we're offering a special B&B rate for the night of £38.00 per person, based on two people sharing a double or twin room.

Do come along and support the IOSF.

We look forward to seeing you!
