Highland Hospitality at Its Finest

comfortable roomfirst class foodfriendly staffpetrol smell
The room was a comfortable Double Guest Room. The evening meals in the restaurant was so nice. The food was first class (especially the Scottish dishes!). I found the staff friendly and always polite.
I noticed a slight petrol smell occasionally, likely due to the proximity of the petrol station next to the building.
