Arisaig House, Arisaig, Inverness-shire was the headquarters of the Group A section of the SOE training scheme for agents. After initial selection, agents would be sent to one of the Group A schools for their para-military training. These were all in the Western Highlands of Scotland, which during the war was a Protected Area, off limits to visitors. Even residents needed passes to come and go as well as having their mail censored. Much of the actual training happened at other locations, the houses and lodges requisitioned by SOE in the area to the north.
