Overview

Service and Venue

The stunning 5-star Ness Walk sits on the riverside in the beautiful Highland city of Inverness. The listed building has been recreated and enhanced with the addition of the Riverbank Room – the most perfect wedding setting. The Riverbank Room has a south facing glass wall, leading out to the manicured courtyard, onto the lawn and down to the side of the mighty Ness. Flooded with natural light, this is the perfect place to illuminate your love! Alternatively, when the evenings are short of light, let our elegant overhanging statement lighting provide an atmosphere of both intimacy and warmth. Complete with bespoke carpeting, this idyllic setting is filled with a unique charm and personality for your special day. From the moment our gates open and you sweep up the drive, you know this is a special place where special things happen.

Catering

Our Executive chef and his brigade have designed menus around the seasons. We believe the very best of local seasonal produce is central to your dining experience. Our vegetable supply is grown locally on our organic farm plot. We also work with a local forager and our Chefs can be seen in the Ness Walk courtyard daily selecting herbs from our herb garden. Truly local! Ness Walk will deliver a culinary experience that defies expectations and leaves your guests astounded.

Honeymoon Suite

Our Wellingtonia Suite is our largest and most sumptuous suite, offering a luxurious sanctuary. At 90 square metres, it provides an exceptional space with sweeping views out to the hotel grounds. Lavish furnishings and décor create a contemporary but elegant feel. Complete with a serene lounge and private dining space. Filled with natural charm, it is an idyllic setting for both entertaining and relaxing. Named after our beautiful 200-year-old Wellingtonia tree, this suite is as impressive as its namesake. The pinnacle of Highland hospitality.
