Beautiful scenery and wonderful hotel. Warm and welcoming staff. The food was spectacular, best fish and chips on our UK vacation.
Lori, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Nice hotel with quirky decor. Great customer service on Reception. Only negative is that the walls are paper thin. Can hear everything in the rooms next door and the hallway.

The inn was absolutely superb. The staff were friendly all the time. The food incredible! I would thoroughly recommend this unique, beautiful, comforting place to stay. Worth every penny.
Ian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a gem of a hotel in the middle off the Highlands, isolated and peaceful. It was a very pleasant surprise to find such excellent Indian cuisine on the menu along with traditional fare.
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The food was really good. I had the BBQ ribs and my daughter had the fish and chips basket. The calamari, prawns, and cod were all fresh and all the meat was cooked just right to melt in your mouth.
Rhonda, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was comfortable enough. Bathroom was quite small. Staff is very hard working and wear a lot of hats doing multiple jobs at once. Nice that a warm breakfast buffet is included. If you’re looking for a stay far from anything this is your place.

8/10 Very good

Very nice. Clean. On the expensive side but no options near by. Lots of amenities "included". WiFi blocked so you have restrictions. Television programs Middle East based. Breakfast was a buffet but pretty good.

Such a lovely beautiful place. Cozy accommodations, professional and caring service and staff, and clean and comfortable.
Gary, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at Culanie Inn on our way back from Skye. This inn had the best service and was very pleasant to book with. I highly suggest staying here for the views and for the kind service. There was a great walk close to the inn which was wonderful for the sunset views.

Real gem in the highlands

Absolute gem of a hotel, classic highland lodge feel but modern and comfortable.
Anthony, 1-night trip

Conveniently located, the surrounding area has some nice walks. Good was excellent. Pricewise, this is expensive to stay at compared to other hotels.

This was a really great property!!! We totally enjoyed our stay and our Highland Cows!!!
Laura, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay over 3 nights, room was good, comfortable and had everything you would expect. I had a single so not huge but more than enough room for me. Staff were all excellent, friendly, very willing and efficient to help when required. Breakfast (hot or cold) was very good, bar meals were also good though not the cheapest.

This inn was a great stop on our Scotland trip. The proprietor was kind and welcoming, bar staff was attentive, and the room was clean and comfortable. I definitely recommend!
Jared, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hospitality was excellent and the effort to retain the heritage of the inn was fantastic.
Leslie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was one of my all time favorite locations for a hotel in Scotland - out in the remote highlands, misty mountains and lush green valleys with rivers running through. The bedrooms were decorated perfectly to fit the vibe and were cozy, although a little small. It was quiet, even leaving the windows open to let the fresh air in (as long as you were on the side of the hotel facing out to the mountains). The part that really hit home was the breakfast in the morning which was in the most epic part of the restaurant privately reserved for guests with a delicious breakfast buffet. It looked more like a Switzerland lodge. The staff were excellent the whole time. The only issue we had was a later checkin (9:30 pm) where the phone number on the door was unreachable that left us in a bit of a panic to not get in for about 20 minutes but we were able to go next door to the staff accommodations and get someone to let us in. Across from the hotel is their cafe and this was a staple spot to get caught up on laptop work during our trip, with excellent wifi speeds and good coffee. We loved it and would make this a for sure stop on the way to the Isle of Skye.
Shane, 1-night trip

Excellent location for viewing some of the Scottish highlands

The staff is really nice but there are much better inns in a 30 min radius for cheaper price and much better service and stay. I would not stay there again
