Very quaint, a little o'fashioned. Ran by a lovely couple and made you feel a part of Scotland! The food was amazing 6 stars!

We travelled to Scourie with a group of friends and spent a very enjoyable 5 day break with excellent food, very comfortable beds and clean rooms. there are beautiful places to visit locally, and fascinating bird and wildlife to watch.

Loved it. Absolutely loved the headboard on the bed with the Highland cows on it. Fantastic friendly staff. Only thing that could have been improved was the breakfast (not the quality, as it was delicious, but had to ask for butter with my toast and also assumed toast should come automatically with the full Scottish breakfast, but had to ask for that too) Coffee was the most delicious filter coffee I have ever had. It was fantastic. Would definitely come back to stay

Stayed here on the second night of our trip and what a disappointment! Extremely overpriced, not clean, not comfortable and even the heating didn't work in our room. The bar man was the rudest man we had met in our whole trip to the highlands. He was very short and extremely aggressive with us and our questions. We asked for a recommendation of a good local single malt, which you would expect a man in his position would have a lot of pride in, and his response was shocking! The only reason I gave a second star is for the pleasant dining staff and the good food. Avoid this place to stay, but do drop in for a bite to eat.

When I read reviews I wonder how this could be the same hotel I stayed in? We had a excellent stay here, the garden room being excellent and nice and private from main hotel. No tv? A bit strange but I quite enjoyed the break from it really. The whole place is very clean and the staff excellent & welcomingly pleasant, the restaurant was excellent in quality with the menu changing daily all in all first class folks.

Stayed for one night in June 2021. One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at - it was as if the owners were welcoming you into their family home. The customer service was exemplary, whilst the food (breakfast/dinner) was high quality with sizeable portions. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds - there are no televisions but frankly you don't need one with such a warm and welcoming lounge and bar area. Would highly recommend, even at the slightly higher cost.

We didn't stay here however during our NC500 trip we stopped here for some fish & chips. Staff were super friendly and accommodating and even made us fresh fish without beer batter due to our dietary requirements. Will definitely be paying a visit for dinner here next time!
