The beautiful setting at the foot of Glencoe has certainly been in The Ballachulish Hotel's favour, but nature has bestowed her ample splendour even in the area surrounding the hotel. The result is a stunning place where guests can settle in for a blissfully quiet weekend. Step in to the Bùlas Bar and Bistro for a cappuccino by the fireside or a relaxed sunset dinner..

The menu does full justice to modern Scottish and British cooking with black pudding and apple fritters accompanied by crispy salad and a balsamic dressing heading the list. Main courses are designed for robust appetites - grilled loin of pork and loin of venison served with a blackcurrant liqueur sauce and potato croquettes - and finish with a vanilla and cinnamon pear served with its own chocolate sauce and honeycomb ice cream.

With live entertainment at Bulas on selected nights, The Ballachulish is one the best places to combine comfort with contemporary warmth and castle bagging.
