The Locations

Not all the filming for Monarch of the Glen is done around the house - or even around laggan, Newtonmore and Kingussie - film locations extend well beyond the are known as Badenoch, into Strathspey (the area from Aviemore northwards) and out to Glen Spean - actually in Lochaber. Also featured in series six was the beautiful coastline around Arisaig, to the west of Fort William on the 'Rathad nan Eilean' - Road to the Isles. The locations further afield are covered by the Monarch Country web site (see the links page), but below are a few scenes from Newtonmore....
Filming in progress at the side exit of the former Craig Mhor Hotel - now the luxurious 'Monarch Country Self Catering Apartments' where many of the stars make their temporary homes. This entrance featured as the 'Glen Bogle Rose' guesthouse in series 4
The gentlemen's hairdresser's from series 2 is still to be seen sporting its Glen Bogle telephone number at the corner of the junction with the main road and the Laggan Road at the south end of the village.
The Clan Macpherson Museum has featured on several occasions as the Glen Bogle Tearoom and Post Office
The car park of the Glen Hotel was used to house the mobile cinema for a scene where Duncan took Irene to the pictures.
