Falkland Palace & Village - Covenanter Hotel
About This Outlander Filming Location
The Covenanter Hotel transforms into Mrs. Baird's Bed & Breakfast, where Claire and Frank stay during their 1945 second honeymoon in Season 1. This charming 17th-century coaching inn sits prominently on Falkland's High Street, directly facing the Bruce Fountain where Jamie's ghost appears. While interior scenes were filmed in studios, the hotel's exterior perfectly captures the period atmosphere of 1940s Scottish hospitality. The building's traditional Scottish architecture, with its stone facade and period windows, provides the authentic backdrop for Frank and Claire's romantic getaway that becomes the catalyst for their supernatural adventure. Visitors can actually book rooms here to experience their own Outlander stay, making it a unique filming location where fans can sleep where their favorite characters supposedly did. The hotel's proximity to the fountain creates the crucial spatial relationship for the ghost encounter scene.
