Activity itinerary

Beauly Priory
  • 30m
From your place of stay in Inverness, we will travel towards Beauly Priory. The ruins of Beauly Priory lie at the east end the main square of Beauly. It was one of three priories founded in Scotland by monks of the Valliscaulian order, from the Burgundy region of France, in the years following 1230. The monks clearly liked what they found when they arrived, for Beauly was referred to in the 1230s as Prioratus de Bello Loco: Latin for "Priory of the Lovely Spot". This suggests that the name Beauly, from the French beau lieu or "beautiful place" dates back far beyond the popular belief that it was based on a comment made by Mary Queen of Scots during her visit in the summer of 1564. and then on to dornoch view point 40 mins

In the 1730s a brewery was built on the site that shared the farm's water source, the Tarlogie Spring.
