Would stay again
Clean, comfortable, simple room and ensuite showeroom/toilet. We had a table and two chairs by the window which was lovely so we could eat some meals there. Good service and lovely kind gentleman running the place who was very helpful. Good value. Only problem we had was being woken by the neighbours dogs loudly barking before 7am, which went on a long time, but not every day and of course is not the guest house owners fault at all. There is a busy road outside, but we had a room at the front and it wasn't really a bother with the windows closed. Loch achilty is in front of the guest house and it is stunning. We saw wild red deer down there, and the surrounding area is wonderful, well positioned between East and west and for the NC500.
