THE NORTHWEST HIGHLANDS OF SCOTLAND
GETTING HERE
Torridon is located in the remote Northwest Highlands, approximately 5 hours drive from the main airports, Glasgow and Edinburgh. It has good proximity to the smaller regional airport of Inverness but there are less flights to this location.
All airports offer good road links and plenty of available rental cars.
