Last Munro Celebrations
There are few better ways to celebrate the final summit — the last Munro climbed, the final notch on your hill-walking belt — than by coming home to a place as special as Coillemore House. Here’s why our house makes an ideal base for a “last-Munro” gathering with friends or family. We are also perfectly located for easy access to Torridon, Glenshiel or Skye so you have your pick of mountains to use for your last Munro.
1. Space for the whole crew — and then some
Coillemore House sleeps up to 10 people, with five generously sized bedrooms (including three super-king rooms and a ground-floor bedroom) — perfect for a big group of Munro-baggers to join the last climb and then relax together. Whether you’re a party of close friends, partners, or family spanning generations (grandparents, siblings, kids) — everyone gets a comfy bed and space to stretch out.
2. Comfort and warmth after a long hike
After a full day on the hills — potentially in wind, rain, mist or sunshine — you’ll want a home that feels like home. Coillemore delivers: two cosy reception rooms (one with an open fire, one with a wood-burning stove and Smart TV), plenty of bathrooms, a sauna and hot tub and a boot-room/utility space to dry off wet gear. You can cook together after the walk in a fully equipped kitchen, eat around the big dining table, and later curl up by the fire or put on some music. As some of your group come down off the hills, others can relax with a glass — no one gets left out.
3. Hot-tub, Sauna, fire-pit & garden — ideal for celebration and recovery
One of the most magical perks: a wood-fired hot tub sitting just off the patio, and a sauna surrounded by lush private gardens. A soak after a hard “bagging” session — especially watching a Highland sunset or under a starry sky — is nothing short of perfect. For those who like to linger over drinks, a fire-pit or garden chill-out offers a great way to decompress, swap stories and enjoy that feeling of “we did it.”
4. Location — in the heart of West-Coast Highlands, close to great peaks and after-walk treats
Coillemore House sits on the National Trust for Scotland’s Balmacara Estate, with woodland paths, hilltops, lochans and coastal scenery right on the doorstep. The wider west-coast Highlands — including the Isle of Skye — are within easy reach, giving you flexibility whether your “last Munro” is a dramatic peak or a mellow day-walk. And once you’re back, you’ve got the comfort of a proper home waiting.
5. A house with character and heart — a fitting monument to your Munro journey
This isn’t a bland hotel or soulless lodge. Coillemore House has history (once a shooting-lodge / estate factor’s residence), charm and character that only deepen with time. The mix of historic features, modern comfort and thoughtful renovations makes it a place that feels lived-in, but still special.
It’s the kind of place where you don’t just sleep — you unwind, share memories, plan the next adventure, or simply sit by the fire and let the silence of the Highlands settle over you.
Who the “Last-Munro Party at Coillemore” is best for
Groups of friends finishing (or close to finishing) their Munro bagging — celebrating together with space, comfort, and good fun.
Families spanning generations — grandparents to kids — where you want accessibility (ground-floor room / wet-room), comfort, and enough shared communal space to enjoy.
Anyone who wants more than just a “night in a B&B” — a real base where memories are made, stories told, hills remembered, and sunsets watched in peace.
Walkers who want flexibility — whether the final peak is a relaxed day-walk or a full-on climb, Coillemore gives the comfort, convenience and atmosphere to match.
In short: Finish high, return home higher
Climbing your last Munro is a big deal — a culmination of walks, weather, sweat, determination and often lifelong ambition. There’s something deeply symbolic about finishing on a summit — and nothing wrong with celebrating it properly. Coillemore House offers the space, the comfort, the beauty and the soul that make it more than “just a house.” It’s the perfect place to mark the end of one journey, and perhaps the beginning of another.
So — if you’re organising a final Munro push, a last-peak celebration — or just a weekend of remembrances with friends — we’d love to welcome you to Coillemore. 🥂
