Inverailort House, Georgian country house in Highland, Scotland

The structure features a Georgian core from 1756, with multiple wings added throughout the nineteenth century, including a baronial extension and Old Scots style addition.

The War Office requisitioned the property in 1940, transforming it into a Special Operations Executive training base before becoming HMS Lochailort under Royal Navy control.

The house incorporated a Roman Catholic chapel on the first floor during the late 1800s, reflecting religious practices within the Scottish Highland community.

Located at the head of Loch Ailort, the property stands near the junction of the A830 Road to the Isles and the A861 route.

The interior maintains original World War II military signage from its period as a Special Training Centre, where irregular forces learned guerrilla warfare techniques.
