Super location, lovely staff.clean and functional if you need a place in the area would recommend. Don’t eat here so cou
Pros:

Lovely setting, parking outside, all staff lovely wherever we went. Rooms clean and functional and good shower. Very reasonable price for a weekend away walking. Everything we needed.

Cons:

It’s a bit tired in places, old fashioned and could do with a bit of love. Very loud coach trip excursion first thing in morning with people bashing around the hotel from 7am.

Pros:

A lovely old hotel kept up to standard. Everything you need is close by within walking distance. The village of Strathpeffer is quaint and beautiful. Many a time I have passed by using the main road to Inverness but people are missing a trick not going the scenic route!
