A very friendly family welcome awaits you at the historic Covenanters' Inn.  Run by Louise and Douglas Harrison, the Inn is located in the small country village of Auldearn, just 2 miles from Nairn between Inverness (capital of the Highlands) and the historic town of Elgin in Moray.  It is an ideal location from which to explore the magnificent scenery of the North and West Highlands, Moray, Speyside, the Cairngorms and Aberdeenshire. |

If you need any help in planning days out, Douglas will be only too pleased to assist. He keeps up-to-date on where the Moray dolphins and Nessie have been sighted most recently! At the Covenanters' Inn we offer a wide choice of good food. ... Why not pop in for lunch if you are touring the area? If you are wondering about the name - it originates from the great Battle of Auldearn in 1645 between the Covenanters and the Marquis of Montrose. In these times, the original part of the Inn was the Mill and Brewhouse for the people of the area. Today, the Highlands are far more welcoming and we look forward to meeting you! |
| The Covenanters' Inn is renowned for its variety of good food cooked using local produce. The Eren Restaurant provides a more formal dining atmosphere, mainly used for special occasions and parties. Breakfast is also served here.  The Kiln Lounge Bar (recently refurbished) offers excellent food in historic surroundings. It is situated in the 'mill' section of the building. During its refurbishment, the old beams were exposed and now the actual kiln and some of the original workings are open to view. After eating, why not enjoy a dram at the bar or sit in the conservatory and watch the sunset. The conservatory (non smoking) is the perfect quiet setting for reading, write your postcards or surfing the internet. |
