Lovat Panto


The Ladies of the Telford Centre did an amazing job with their 'panto' to entertain the residents of the Fort Augustus Telford Centre. Christmas lunch was held on 17th December 2008 with nearly 40 guests celebrating the festivities at the hotel.

David, our new GM even got in on the theatrical action after showing off our fantastic Christmas puddings then chasing the ladies with a wooden spoon!

All good fun...thanks for a great day

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!


Bring on the snow - then we can all hit the slopes!
The snow also makes for a lovely Christmassy feel that entices you to hug the fire, lose yourself in a book & glug on a soothing drink.


Thanks goes to Alan Kemp, SSE, for this great photo that captures the hotel's serenity beautifully.

The Last Supper...

It will certainly be a sad day when the last of SSE leave the building in 2009. Their custom since 2005 has been greatly appreciated, they have brought a warmth & laughter to the hotel whatever the weather conditions & technical battles they have had to face. They have also stuck with us, through thick & thin, during the refurbishment – never losing faith in our ability to open (!) - so we are grateful for their perseverance during this time.

The hotel has thrived on SSE's business throughout the year, in-particular during the Winter months. We have provided off-site external catering services for monumental events during the Glendoe development, as well as for community meetings held locally to keep the public informed of their progress.

The hotel was delighted to hold the final Christmas Party on 10th December 2008. To mark the occasion, each long standing SSE associate was presented with a ‘Loving it at the Lovat’ Silver Pen & Holder. We all just hope this is not the end of their custom & they continue to visit us at the hotel, outside of work commitments.

Thank you to Neil(s), John, Alan, Ronnie & Brian(s) for being such great customers & friends.

We will miss you!
