A very beautiful place to stay in the Scottish Highlands. The manager was very kind and took care of us in the middle of the night when we arrived very late. He left all the necessary information and the keys at the front desk, so we could enter the room without any problems. Will recommend this place.

A wonderful and delightful hotel, they are in the process of updating the establishment. I am confident that once everything is completed, it will be better than when we stayed. If you’re looking for a nice night sleep, and food. The restaurant was beautiful and the food was scrumptious. Oh my, almost forgot add the breath taking view.I would highly recommend this hotel.
