Plan a Traitors-Style Group Adventure in the Scottish Highlands

The Highlands have drama in their DNA - and now, thanks to the hit BBC series The Traitors, everyone wants a taste of that cloak-and-dagger magic. While the show’s filming location at Ardross Castle is far up the coast, Roam West, just outside Fort William, offers the perfect setting for your own group mystery weekend.

Whether you're plotting secrets around the dinner table or just chasing some Highland air with your favourite people, our atmospheric lodge and dramatic surroundings set the scene beautifully.

A Highland Backdrop Worth Betraying For

Moody lochs. Snow-capped peaks. Remote trails. If Claudia Winkleman turned up with a letter and a red velvet cloak, we wouldn’t be surprised.

The west coast of Scotland has all the cinematic suspense and windswept charm that made The Traitors so gripping. And from your base at Roam West, you can create your very own Highland drama - no production crew needed.

• Hidden Trails in Glencoe

• Fireside Showdowns in the pub

• Late-night Plotting over pints of local ale

Adventures, Allegiances & Accusations

Whether you're planning a weekend of actual hill walking or just accusing each other over breakfast, there’s something delightfully fun about turning your Highland break into something more… suspicious.

Here’s how to get into the Traitors spirit:

• Clue Hunt in the Glens – Create a group mystery game with clues hidden around the hills.

• Final Roundtable in the Pub – After a dram or two, take turns guessing the traitor in your group.

• Suspicious Strolls – Take the Corran Ferry for an eerie, mist-filled ride to Ardgour before walking back via the loch.
