Inside award-winning Scottish Highlands lodge overlooking Loch Ness for sale
The accommodation has previously been awarded a Michelin Key.
An award-winning luxury Scottish Highlands lodge that overlooks the iconic Loch Ness has just gone up for sale. Foyers Lodge is a traditional lodge situated along the southwest of Loch Ness, offering panoramic views of the loch and up the Great Glen.
The property is currently available to buy at a guide price of £1.1 million. Dating back to the 19th century, the lodge has undergone a comprehensive but sensitive renovation since it was purchased by the current owners in 2016.
It now operates as a seven-bedroom boutique hotel that has received numerous accolades, including the prestigious Michelin Key and Scottish Hotels' Small Luxury Destination of the Year 2025.
The accommodation comprises seven guest bedrooms and one self-contained apartment. In addition, there is a private managers' flat with its own living space and two bedrooms.
Meanwhile, the public areas consist of an opulent dining room, a residents' lounge, a bar, and a reading room. According to estate agent Galbraith, all of the rooms have been decorated to reflect the charm and history of the original lodge while also providing modern comfort.
Outside, Foyers Lodge sits in around 2.2 acres of lush gardens and woodland. The idyllic lawns are complemented by paths through regenerating woodland that connect to a way-marked trail leading to Loch Ness.
Other highlights of the exterior include a fully lined workshop and a plant room. The property also benefits from fishing rights on local lochs.
Phiddy Robertson, who is handling the sale on behalf of Galbraith, commented: "Foyers Lodge is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a property of rare quality in a globally recognised location. The current owners have created something very special—a business that combines award-winning hospitality with the tranquility and beauty of the Highlands.
"It's a place where heritage, nature and luxury come together seamlessly. There is such exciting potential with this property whether continuing as a successful business or indeed as a bespoke family home, it will certainly appeal to a wide range of buyers."
Current owners Anna Low and Phil Crowe added: "From the moment we arrived at Foyers, we were captivated by the natural beauty, peace and wildlife of this lesser-known side of Loch Ness. Transforming the Lodge into a boutique hotel has been the project of our lives, a true labour of love, and we're incredibly proud of what we've achieved.
"Our greatest reward has been hearing guests describe their stay as unforgettable—from the spectacular views to the interiors, to the warmth of a Highland welcome. It's a magical place.
"We feel privileged to have been its custodians and have no doubt that the next owners will fall in love with the property and location just as we did."
