For guests travelling long distances, the last thing you need is the stress of finding EV chargers in Scotland. At the Kingsmills, we’ve removed this headache entirely.

Seamless Electric Vehicle Charging in Inverness, Scotland

Our goal is to make electric vehicle charging in Scotland easy. That’s why we installed four 7kW EV chargers, which is the optimal charging rate for a hotel stay. Why? Because your vehicle can be rejuvenated overnight, while you enjoy the Kingsmills experience. Also, for most EV batteries, a 7kW charger plugged in overnight gets it from near-empty to full. So, you’ll have the range you need for a day of Highland driving.

All in all, our dedicated charging points alleviate the stress of EV travel, especially when driving in the Highlands. Instead of spending holiday time at a service station, your car charges while you dine in our restaurants or relax in your room. This is the convenience and luxury you expect from a stay at the Kingsmills.

We’ve also integrated the system using the user-friendly Monta app. This allows you to manage the charging session directly from your smartphone, giving you control over start and stop times. You’ll also be able to see the charging status of your vehicle with ease and handle payments. And if you struggle, our team can assist with any queries you have.

This commitment to commercial EV chargers in Scotland is a direct reflection of our dedication to modernity. And by providing electric vehicle charging points Scotland can be proud of, we’re supporting your choice to travel sustainably.
