Culloden House

Frommer's Review

This is the most elegant country retreat in the area. Culloden House, a Georgian mansion with a much-photographed Adam facade, includes part of the Renaissance castle in which Bonnie Prince Charlie slept the night before Culloden, the last great battle on British soil. Superbly isolated, with extensive gardens and parkland, it's perfect for a relaxed Highland holiday. At the iron gates to the broad front lawn, a piper in full Highland garb often plays at sundown, the skirl of the bagpipe accompanied by the barking of house dogs. Cozy yet spacious guest rooms have sylvan views and a history-laden atmosphere. The Prince of Wales and the crown prince of Japan have stayed here.
