This historic hotel, with origins in the 18th century, was originally built as a stopover for passengers travelling by stagecoach along the old A9 route to Inverness and the North of Scotland. Today, it remains a welcoming destination for visitors and locals alike, and proudly serves as the base for the MacPherson Clan during their international gatherings in the Highlands. Guests can enjoy dining in the impressive Balmoral Restaurant, featuring heavily corniced ceilings and original Peddie murals depicting the rich history of the Scottish Highlands. For real ale enthusiasts, the Duke of Gordon offers a fine selection of locally brewed cask ales, served in a traditional and friendly setting. The hotel is open all day, making it the perfect place to enjoy a refreshing pint or a relaxed meal whenever you visit. Whether you’re here for Highland heritage, great food, or a perfectly kept local ale, the Duke of Gordon Hotel offers a warm welcome all year round.
