FOYERS FOR SALE: Time to Check In - Permanently

If you’re a regular Hood reader, you’ll know we have a soft spot for Foyers Lodge. That sweeping Loch Ness view, the carefully curated interiors, the sense of calm that envelops you the moment you arrive – it’s a rare thing. But more than that, it’s been the warmth and humour of owners Anna and Phil that’s made this place feel like a true hideaway.

So yes, we’re a bit conflicted. Sad to see this award-winning boutique hotel up for sale, knowing it means someone else will be standing behind the bar where Phil’s poured many a dram and Anna’s served many a story. But also hopeful. Hopeful they base themselves closer to the capital for more regular catch-ups, and hopeful the next chapter brings the right buyer to this very special place.

Because here’s the thing: Foyers Lodge isn’t just a business. It’s a fully restored, late-Victorian property on the quieter side of Loch Ness, with panoramic views, woodland grounds, and salmon fishing rights. It’s a successful seasonal hotel with a Michelin ‘One Key’ to its name, a place that’s earned every accolade and repeat guest. And now it’s available – lock, stock and bespoke bathroom fittings – for £1.1 million.

Whether you’re dreaming of running your own small hotel, hosting intimate weddings, or simply want a Highland home with history and heart, this one’s worth a serious look.
