“There's a historical vibe to it, which is interesting. The hotel seems to balance that old-world charm with modern upgrades, and I appreciate that it's family-run; you get a different level of hospitality. It's a solid base for exploring the northern Highlands, plus the on-site restaurant is a real convenience.”

unexpected stay
great locationsky sportspool tabledecent food
The hotel has a great location, this I can say. The bar attached is definitely a PLUS, showcasing all sky SPORTS and a pool table. Live football matches are easily viewed there, also serving pretty decent food. The hotel provided value for money, certainly, as a guest.
I found the cold tap dispense lukewarm water, made using the hospitality tray NOT ideal. I would have liked cold water from the bathroom tap. I am hoping, it will be fixed sooner.
