About this house rental
Family Retreat & Hunting Lodge near The Isle Of Skye
The Glen Shiel Estate covers more than 14,500 acres of mountains, rivers, and foreshore, providing a natural habitat for wildlife of all kinds. The Lodge is located in an incredibly beautiful setting in the Scottish Highlands, offering breathtaking views in every direction. It can accommodate up to 16 guests in the main lodge, making it ideal for large groups of families, friends, corporate retreats, and outdoor adventure excursions. Additionally, Glenshiel is an excellent option for wedding accommodations or receptions, with the nearby Eilean Donan Castle adding to its appeal.
The Lodge consists of eight bedrooms, which are split between two wings of the house, and there is also a Coach House with two more bedrooms available to book in addition to the Lodge. The interior of the Lodge is warm and spacious, with three open fires, and has been tastefully renovated to create a cosy yet rustic home-away-from-home, while still retaining its Scottish roots.

Activities:
You are perfectly situated to explore some of the most challenging stalking and Munro walking that the Highlands has to offer. Everything you need for outdoor pursuits is on the door step; whether it's deer stalking, clay shooting on the ranges, boat trips to discover the magnificent whales, dolphins and seals; fishing for salmon and sea trout on the River Shiel, all can be arranged in advance via local companies. As well as being a drive away from Scotland's great ski slopes, you are also close to the spectacularly scenic NC500 route, where classic cars roar past, and make you feel like you are stepping back in time.
Deer Stalking / Fishing / Pony Trekking can all be arranged directly with the lodge subject to availability.
You are surrounded by some of the best fine dining experiences in the UK, including a 2 Michelin starred restaurant on the breathtaking Isle Of Skye and there is a local pub within walking distance. In house catering may also be possible - please enquire for more information.

THE FIVE SISTERS OF KINTAIL
The mountain range which consists of 6 (NOT 5) peaks is a great challenge to Mountaineers and Hillwalkers
The ‘Five Sisters’ or ‘Beinn Mhor’, in Gaelic meaning ‘big mountain'.
They can be a technical challenge second to none, and in winter months offer one of the best challenges in Scotland if not the whole of Great Britain.

Glenshiel Lodge was perfect for our large family trip to Skye. The house and cottage accommodated 20 of us very comfortably. The kitchen is built for a chef. And in fact, we hired an in-house chef Ken from Ghillies Catering who was fantastic! The hiking around the lodge is phenomenal. We found that the hiking just over the ridge from the back of Glenshiel Lodge, was just as beautiful as some of the hikes we drove 30 minutes to.
The wood-burning hot tub was fun too! I would highly recommend for large family highland getaway.

We appreciate your efforts in ensuring that everything was perfect for our special occasion.
Once again, thank you for contributing to a fantastic birthday celebration. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at your lodge and look forward to returning in the future.

The WiFi did not work and it appears that it hasn’t been available for some time. The freezer was half-filled with old food and meats. The lodge is need of some TLC but it was perfect setting for our large family reunion. All the beds had fresh linens and there was an ample supply of towels. And the surrounding area is lovely. We hiked the Five Sisters as well as the mountains behind the lodge, visited the brochs in Glenelg, toured the Isle of Skye and the beautiful village of Plockton and Applecross Bay.
