Loch Maree Hotel

This postcard shows the Loch Maree Hotel in Wester Ross, built in 1872. In 1877, Queen Victoria spent six nights there and enjoyed her visit. She said she hoped to return one day.

Loch Maree (background), in Wester Ross, is twelve miles long and extends from Kinlochewe to near Poolewe. Most of the loch is only about half a mile wide. It broadens into about a mile in places and has several small islands. The hotel is about half way along the loch
