Weekend Breaks in Inverness

For a short trip away to a UK city that’s surrounded by stunning natural beauty, it’s hard to beat Inverness weekend breaks. With a superb location on the Scottish north-east coast where the River Ness meets the Moray Firth, you’re in touching distance of one of Britain’s most fascinating myths. Dive into the legend of the famous Nessie with a visit to Urquhart Castle and the Loch Ness Centre and Exhibition. Learn more about the local area at the Inverness Museum and Art Gallery, seek out some new things at the Victorian market, or see what’s going on at venues like Eden Court. Back out of the city, the local countryside offers some spectacular hikes with picturesque Highland scenery, while you can try to spot bottlenose dolphins and grey seals from the lighthouse at Chanonry Point. When planning a weekend getaway to Inverness, make sure to consult our Inverness City Guide. It will ensure you discover a comprehensive list of exciting things to do and see in this vibrant city.

After a day full of adventure, you’ll probably be ready to collapse come the evening. Grab a bite to eat at the Leonardo Hotel Inverness Cromarty Restaurant, before sipping a wee dram of the local whisky at our on-site Dornoch Bar. Or simply retire to your comfortable room with its big soft bed, where you can browse the internet with our free Wi-Fi or watch something on your flat screen TV.
