Lochardil Doggie Digs

Our Dog Friendly Hotel

We’re delighted that you have decided to bring your dog with you to Lochardil House. With so many dog friendly activities in the surrounding area, it was an easy decision to become a dog friendly hotel.

We know that every holiday is made better with your dog by your side. Visit us to enjoy leisurely days strolling along the picturesque River Ness, explorations on Ness Islands or even adventurous walking trips to Loch Ness or further afield. At the end of each day, you and your pup can venture back to Lochardil House to enjoy a cosy evening meal and night cap in our Bar and a soothing and peaceful night’s sleep in your room.

Our Doggie Hotel Policy

We’re so happy that you’ve decided to bring your pup to our dog friendly accommodation in Inverness. However, there are just a few rules that need to be followed to ensure that all our guests can enjoy their stay.

Your dog is very welcome in our guest rooms, as well as the bar area if it’s not too busy but please ensure that they are supervised and well behaved at all times. Dogs are not permitted in the Restaurant.

We know that a messy dog is a happy dog, particularly with all the nearby walks around, but we kindly ask that you give your dog a good clean before returning to your room. For this reason, we also ask that you keep your dogs off the furniture and beds.

If your pup is left alone or unattended in your room, please put a ‘Do Not Disturb’ sign on your door or let a member of reception know.

Lastly, when exploring the rest of the hotel or surrounding areas, please keep your dog on a leash and use a poo bag for any fouling. Spare poo bags are available at reception on request.

Respecting our Local Community

Part of the beauty of Inverness and the Highland areas is its natural landscapes and thriving local wildlife. To keep you, your pup and other animals safe we ask that you please respect our local community and the land around you by acting responsibly when you visit our dog friendly hotel.

Please take a moment to visit the Scottish Outdoor Access Code which offers guidance on how to enjoy the outdoors responsibly with your dog.

Fees for Doggie Digs

We do charge a small cost of £15 per dog per night for up to £60 per stay for our dog hotel guests. This is to cover any additional cleaning required but please note that if we feel a deep clean is needed or notice damage to the room, this will be discussed and charged accordingly.

With all those rules out of the way, we hope that you, your pup and all our other guests can enjoy your stay at our dog friendly hotel in Inverness!
