A beautiful hotel set in extensive grounds

A cracking location with its own river and woods. The rooms were spotless and very comfortable and a great bathroom. The service was impeccable and the manager is noting short of incredible. The food throughout was exquisite, especially dinner and one of the best meals I've had this year. Highly recommended!

Comfortable and friendly Hotel

Well located for main tourist attractions in Caithness. Genuinely friendly, helpful staff encourage a relaxed stay which is complemented by an excellent cuisine. I would be happy to stay there whenever in the area.
