What to expect at Eden Court, Inverness
Inverness is just a 40-minute drive from Eagle Brae log cabins, and if you’re visiting the city during your stay with us, we recommend a visit to Eden Court. This is Scotland’s largest combined arts organisation. Formed of three connected buildings on the River Ness, it is Category A listed; One of only around 50 post-war buildings to be awarded that status. It has two theatres, two multi-purpose studios, two cinemas and three art galleries. If that isn’t enough to keep you busy, Eden Court Inverness also has permanent public art all around the site. So you can soak in some proper Scottish art, enjoy live music, or watch a movie. Whatever you fancy – Eden Court has it all. And the building is just as dramatic as what goes on inside!
