Stopped off just overnight en route to Orkney but wanted to stay longer. The open fire in the lounge was so cosy and comfortable and the welcome was so friendly. Great attention to detail, ten out of ten for customer service. More

I stayed in this hotel last weekend and couldn't wait to tell everyone about it. We just wanted a really relaxing weekend and this fitted the bill. The room (Room 11) was superb, very spacious and clean and the en-suite was very luxurious with a large bath/shower. We had an evening meal in the restaurant which was very tasty. Teh... More

Given the reviews of this hotel I was looking forward to my stay, albeit for one night. However my overall impression was of disappointment and coming at the end of a 3 week Scottish holiday it was the most expensive of all our accommodation. On the surface the hotel is well appointed and tastefully furnished in traditional highland style and... More

booked a meal here as we had been told it was the place to go to eat game.As other reviewers have said it is a hunting,fishing and shooting hotel and the decor reflects this with lots of sporting art and deer heads on display-it is light years away from what passes for a cutting edge trendy hotel but it is...

A very warm and friendly hotel. The young staff seem very skilled and customer service was a high priority. A very charming hotel with comfortable unique accomodation. Only the creaking floorboards transmitting noise from the corridor were a tiny negative, but these were easily drowned out by the noise of my aching bones! Food was delicious...I didn't appreciate having a... More

Owner and wife were friendly and welcoming. Food was good, small bar, chatted with a few of the locals who were very friendly. Rooms clean and comfortable. Good stop for those who may like fishing or a break for those travelling further north. More

A very friendly and relaxed place to stay with lots of interesting pictures and taxidermy around the hotel. Our dog was made very welcome too. Probably because of the remote area, the food in particular was quite expensive for what it was. More

A great hotel with very friendly staff, as long as you like stuffed animals at the walls. Hunting and fishing trophies at every corner. Wonderful classic furniture. The dinner rooms with tartan curtains ( Sutherland I guess) I liked the athmosphere. The two fireplaces were cosy, and many drams from the excellent Whisky Bar made the stay even better. The... More
