About this property
Glenfinnan Monument, situated on the scenic Road to the Isles, is set amid superb Highland scenery at the head of Loch Shiel.

It was erected in 1815 in tribute to the clansmen who fought and died in the Jacobite cause. Despite its inspired beginnings, the 1745 campaign came to a grim conclusion on the Culloden battlefield in 1746.

You can find out more about Bonnie Prince Charlie's campaign at the Visitor Centre.
