Fishing
Winner of the Good Hotel Guide's Editors Choice Fishing 2018 Award
The Lodge has fishing rights in nine major and numerous smaller lochans, with boats on six of these lochs. Beginners are welcome from any age. Fly fishing lessons typically start on the lawn of the Lodge and once you have mastered the cast you will progress onto a loch with a personal instructor.
The Lodge also has an agreement with a local creel fisherman. It is one of only two places in the UK where you can creelfish. You will get the chance to see traditional creel fishing and will nearly always return with crab, lobster or langoustine! Our chef will happily prepare a special meal with your catch of the day.

Shellfish Gastro Experience
Only available to book Monday - Friday & is weather dependent.
We believe this is unique in the UK. The experience starts on Dry Island in the bay of Badachro. Boarding our local fisherman’s creel boat, Iain will give you a warm welcome and then combine a guided historic tour of the bay with creel fishing. During the trip you will help bring in the day’s fayre (typically crab, langoustine and lobster). On returning to the hotel the catch is delivered to the kitchen where our chefs will create an incredible five-course shellfish gastro feast for you.
Please note that unfortunately we do not recommend this activity for anyone who requires assisted access, as this day out can be considered strenuous, with limited accessibility. Please reach out to us prior to booking if you are unsure if this experience would suit you.
120 GBP per adult, 60 GBP per child
