The Tailrace Inn is a charming six-bedroom inn in the picturesque village of Kinlochleven, situated at the head of Loch Leven and surrounded by the magnificent Mamore Mountains. With spectacular Highland scenery and numerous walking routes nearby, it is particularly well placed for those looking to explore the area on foot.
The famous West Highland Way passes directly through Kinlochleven, with The Tailrace Inn conveniently located opposite the route in the village centre. This makes it an excellent stopping point for walkers tackling the trail, as well as those planning shorter adventures in the surrounding mountains and countryside.
The inn offers six clean and comfortable guest rooms with a combination of double and single beds, making them suitable for couples, families and small groups. Rooms include quality bed linen and towels, central heating, tea and coffee-making facilities, hairdryers and LCD TVs with integrated DVD players. Free Wi-Fi is also available throughout the inn.
Walkers will appreciate the complimentary drying facilities for wet outdoor clothing, while a washing and drying service is available for an additional charge. During the summer months, midge screens are fitted to the windows for added comfort.
A traditional Scottish cooked breakfast is included in the room rate, with lighter and vegetarian options available on request. Guests can make their breakfast selections the evening before, ready for a freshly prepared start to the following morning. Packed lunches can also be arranged in advance, ideal for those heading out for another day on the trails.
After exploring Kinlochleven, Loch Leven and the surrounding mountains, guests can return to the welcoming lounge bar for food and drinks. Snacks and lunches are served during the day, followed by evening meals and hot snacks later on.
The lounge bar is also a popular place to relax and meet fellow travellers and locals. Sports enthusiasts can keep up with major fixtures on the big-screen TVs, with Sky Sports and BT Sport available.
With comfortable accommodation, hearty food and an enviable position beside the West Highland Way, The Tailrace Inn provides a welcoming Highland base for walkers, outdoor enthusiasts and anyone keen to experience the scenery around Kinlochleven.
