Three architecturally designed holiday lodges in the ultimate highland destination, surrounded in 14 Riverside is open all year round.
(76)
The location and accommodation of Riverside offers a tranquil holiday destination. Our 3 uniquely styled timber lodges each sleep six in 3 bedrooms and are well spaced and very comfortably equipped. Short breaks are available for those “get away from it all” opportunities. Riverside is committed to the environment, materials are reused where possible, waste is minimised by recycling, composting or
shredding. Energy is conserved where possible. Pets are very welcome and the children can enjoy the safe play area. Each Lodge has its own outdoor furniture and there are facilities for BBQ's. Within the grounds there is a river gorge with its own spectacular waterfalls, and a stocked trout pond.

We haven't been able to brag about the weather much this summer!! It's been pretty cold and wet, but we are really hoping the sunshine will arrive a bit later in the year!! Maybe 2024 is the year to take an Autumn break!! There's still a bit of availability remaining before we close for a few weeks end of November ... 😉😎 https://invergloylodges.co.uk/plan-your-visit/book-your-stay/

We've been making a little more progress towards the grand plan of "David's Garden"
Behind Cluanie Lodge, we began clearing an area to designate in honour of the man who started it all.
David and his wife Joan built the lodges starting around 1977 and started the business of welcoming guests to Riverside in 1980, both avid gardeners and rhododendron enthusiasts they planted many of the rare species still in the garden today. The plan of David's Garden is a big job that will take us some time but it begin's at Betty's bench (Betty was a beloved regular guest) and follows along some new paths (still in progress) up to the lodges and the space we call David's Garden. With this we have been adding some new unusual plants with signage to tell you all about them and identifying existing special plants. Right next to Cluanie Lodge is a Weeping Katsura, donated by the previous owners/hosts/caretakers of Riverside Steve and Marilyn Denis. We will keep adding/developing this plan in the hopes that each time you visit there is something new to discover, and a little more info about the history of this wonderful place!

A fantastic thing to participate in whilst on your holidays! There are plenty butterflies to count around the gardens here!
The Big Butterfly Count 2024 is officially here! 🦋
Butterflies are indicators of a healthy natural environment - with half of Britain’s butterfly species already threatened or near threatened with extinction, it’s never been more important to understand how our insects are responding to the changing climate and to take action to protect them. 💚
You can help butterflies and moths today by downloading our free app and ID guide 👉 www.bigbutterflycount.org
We want to make 2024 the biggest ever, so please get your friends and family involved! 🤝

We take a lot of pride in leaving the lodges nice and clean for our guests arriving and using eco-friendly cleaning supplies where possible. We have bragged lots about the fabulous eco-friendly Scottish made products we use from , but this season, we are also cleaning most surfaces with this locally made product from HighlandHousemaid! You may notice the lovely subtle scent as you arrive and you'll find a bottle in the kitchen cabinet and some of both products for sale in the shop if you love them ❤️

This beautiful and unique Rhododendron species we have at Riverside "Rhododendron keysii" is native to northeastern India, Bhutan, Sikkim, and southern Tibet, where it grows at altitudes of 2,400–4,300 m. Originally planted by David Bennet near the pond on the front lawn, it prefers warmer weather that our typical Scottish climate and doesn'talways thrive, but after the lovely May this year it is looking pretty happy

Due to unforeseen circumstances we have some last minute availability in Cluanie Lodge at a bargain rate for this time of year. 3 nights minimum stay.

If you stay with us and explore the beautiful area around we do hope you are aware of and appreciate our local and can we just stress VOLUNTEER Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team they give selfishly their time and expertise to make the area a safer place to explore and a little donation to them whilst you are on holiday here would go a long way 🫶🏔
