About Arnisdale

Arnisdale is a quaint hamlet located in the Highlands of Scotland, specifically within the historic county of Inverness-shire. Nestled on the north shore of Loch Hourn, it is accessible via a single-track road from Glenelg, approximately 10 miles away. With a small permanent population of around 30 residents and several holiday cottages, Arnisdale is also home to the notable Arnisdale House, a striking hunting lodge built between 1898 and 1916 for Valentine Fleming, a member of a prominent banking family. This historically rich area offers a unique mix of local charm and scenic beauty, making it a focal point for potential planning applications.

There are currently no active flood warnings for the Arnisdale area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
