This small hotel is a real gem! My husband and I had a fairly large room with great views across Loch Ness. In addition there is a nice common room for guests with comfortable chairs and a fireplace, which is a good place for reading and relaxing when not out walking or exploring the area. On top of it all, the restaurant on site is excellent! We will be back!

This was a last minute booking and we're so glad we found it! After a week travelling round Scotland and the NE of England, we'd stayed in a number of hotels and found this one right at the end of our trip - this was lovely - ranked very highly!! It compares more than favourably with far more expensive hotels we had stayed in earlier that week. The staff were friendly and helpful, particularly Justin & Jay. The dinner was great, good sized portions as was the traditional Scottish porridge for breakfast. The bedroom was well appointed and very comfortable, with a decent amount of space and good bathroom facilities. If we hadn't been due to head home, we would have definitely booked for another night and if we are ever back that way, we'll book in again!
