    Great stay for a group getaway

    Got a lovely breakfast brought to our room every morning, and the staff were really lovely and helpful. The room was clean and tidy, which made it a pleasant experience overall.

    Wasn't exactly budget-friendly, but still acceptable.

    spacious room
    garden area
    cozy lounge
    breakfast ordering system

    The room was really nice and spacious with stunning views, and the sherry decanter was a lovely surprise. I enjoyed the cozy lounge area and the chance to relax in the garden after a long day. A minor hiccup was the breakfast order system, but overall, it didn't take away from my enjoyable stay! 😊

    A lovely retreat during our NC500 trip! The comfortable room pleased us, adorned with thoughtful touches. We savored excellent dinner options, especially the risotto, bursting with fresh flavors.

    generous breakfast
    local food
    inviting atmosphere
    insufficient heating
    unreliable wifi

    The Tongue Hotel pulled through for me during a recent NC500 adventure. The warm welcome from the owners set a cozy tone. My room offered stunning views, and the decor had charming antique touches. Dining exceeded my expectations. every dish was well-presented and sourced locally. Even the breakfast felt generous, with a delightful bag waiting for me in the morning. One downside was the cold room upon arrival. the heating wasn’t up to par. I also experienced patchy Wi-Fi, which was frustrating while trying to plan my next stop. Despite minor inconveniences, the overall environment was inviting and made me feel at home.

    Spacious King Guest Room with a private bathroom featuring a modern shower. The room included a flat-screen TV, electric kettle, and a comfortable bed with warm heating. Enjoyed the luxurious toiletries and a decanter of sherry. The massage spa facilities were a nice touch after a day of exploring the picturesque Highland views.
