SCRUM Magazine – September 2019

ingal opened in January 2019 in

the historic Port of Leith as a unique

addition to Edinburgh’s hotel scene

following a £5 million development. This former

Northern Lighthouse Board ship, begins an

exciting new chapter offering beautiful cabins,

dining and entertaining space.

Developed by The Royal Yacht Britannia,

Fingal’s 23 luxury cabins are each named after

Stevenson lighthouses, inspired by her rich

maritime heritage. Sleek corridors lined with

lighthouse images lead to the choice of cabins,

from a luxury cabin with access to the deck, a

duplex cabin with comfortable living space or

the stunning Skerryvore Suite with extensive

outdoor space to relax and entertain.

Carefully considered design offers the highest

specifications of craftmanship and finish,

with nautical touches and polished woods.

Sumptuous Scottish leathers and the finest

linens are in colour palates inspired by Fingal’s

journey from land and sea.

The Lighthouse Bar offers a stylish yet relaxed

setting for enjoying Fingal’s interpretation

of a classic afternoon tea or a light supper

celebrating the best of Scotland’s larder, from

coast to port. Raise a glass at the welcoming

Moët Hennessy Champagne bar or enjoy a

cocktail from the creative menu whilst the sun

sets through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.

Hosting up to 60 guests, Fingal is ideal for

exclusive hire, private parties, weddings and

corporate events. A spectacular ballroom

reached by a sweeping staircase is nestled

uniquely in the former hold of the ship and

flooded in light by a movable skylight above.

Whatever the occasion, Fingal evokes the

glamour of the Hollywood age of travel. She

provides an escape from the everyday with the

finest of foods, festivals, history and heritage

just moments away.

Stay onboard Fingal from £220 per night based

on two people sharing, including VAT and a full

Scottish breakfast.
