“Off the beaten path, this feels more like a private home than a hotel, with its eccentric décor and a library spanning the rooms; the remoteness is part of the charm, offering quiet solitude amidst stunning Highland scenery. Homemade meals and engaging hosts ensure a personal touch, catering to dietary needs and creating a convivial atmosphere, plus the place welcomes pets. If you seek peace and enjoy the simple things, this is it.”
