Glenuig Inn

That this House congratulates Glenuig Community Inn Benefit Society on securing £352,800 from the Scottish Land Fund to purchase the historic Glenuig Inn in Lochaber; notes the building’s heritage, with stonework dating back to a structure burned in 1746 during the pursuit of Bonnie Prince Charlie after the Jacobite uprising; further notes the inn’s long-standing role as a ceilidh house where traditional and folk musicians gather, with up to 30 players joining informal sessions; welcomes plans to continue operating the inn as a pub, restaurant and accommodation under community ownership; commends the commitment of the Glenuig community, which has a long history of developing and managing local assets, in becoming Scotland’s first fully community-run mainland village; and wishes them every success for the future of the inn as a hub for music, culture and hospitality.
