Built at the turn of the 20th century for the proprietor of a very successful department store in Moscow, with no expense spared, Aultmore House must be one of the finest houses in the Highlands. In an area of outstanding beauty renowned for its mountainous scenery, its broad rivers and attractive moorland, Aultmore has breathtaking views from every aspect and is surrounded by charming grounds including a range of formal terraces with lawns and stone features, two gazebos and a grotto.

Internally the quality of workmanship is reflected in the elegant lines, pillars and arches with elaborate cornices and magnificent Adam style marble fireplaces. From the moment you step into the house you are stirred by a sense of space and grandeur, with beautiful wooden floors and large windows flooding the place with light. This sumptuous elegance was used in two episodes of the BBC TV drama "Monarch of the Glen".

In an area with much to see and do, with the quality of the property at the heart of your break, Aultmore House is the ideal setting to turn a celebration into a truly memorable occasion.
