Getting to Letterfearn
Nestled on the untamed west coast of the Scottish Highlands, Letterfearn awaits, just a magical two-hour journey from Inverness Airport. We recommend flying to Inverness airport and hiring a rental car for the duration of your trip.
On Saturday night, we've arranged transportation to ensure your journey back is as fun as the festivities. From 11 p.m. to 2 a.m., our shuttle will whisk you away from the wedding venue to the welcoming hearths of the Kintail Lodge Hotel & The Dornie Hotel, stopping at rental properties along the way.
Where to stay
There are two main hotels on the shuttle route for Saturday night. Please book them soon, as rooms are limited and May is a very busy time of the year.
Located just a 15-minute drive from the wedding venue, this hotel is nestled at the foot of the Five Sisters, making it the most convenient location for the weekend's events, including the Friday evening gathering.
We have pre-reserved the entire hotel for the wedding weekend. To book, please contact them directly at reception@kintaillodgehotel.co.uk
Kintail Lodge Hotel
Situated a 30-minute drive from the wedding venue, The Dornie Hotel lies in the quaint town of Dornie, right at the foot of the Isle of Skye and near the iconic Eilean Donan Castle. This option is better suited for those looking to stay in a small town with more activities available.
Book directly through their website.
