Dining at Our Sister Site
While the Lodge provides a peaceful, elevated sanctuary for rest, our sister establishment, The Old Inn, is located just a short, five-minute stroll down the hill in Flowerdale Glen. As one of the most celebrated gastropubs in Wester Ross, it is the perfect place to enjoy locally landed seafood, traditional Highland fare, or a local dram by the fire.
Because the Inn is a popular destination for both locals and visitors, we highly recommend booking your table in advance via their website to ensure you have a seat waiting for you.

Plan Your Visit
We are situated in the charming pocket of Charlestown, overlooking Gairloch’s working harbour. As you enter the village from the south, look for the Lodge prominently positioned on the hillside to your right. Our elevated location ensures a breath-taking view of the Minch and the distant Isle of Skye.
Traveling via the NC500? We are a popular midpoint for those driving the North Coast 500. We recommend arriving before dusk to enjoy the spectacular sunset over the water from our guest lounge.
