Atmosphere: old elegant historic yet Scottish charmed and on point. 3. Food: not what we expected. Surprisingly high end 3-3.5 Michelin Stars and exceptionally crafted. Cooked to perfection.

Good food at night served in the bar by very friendly staff who couldn't do enough to help. Full Scottish breakfast lacking the haggis and black pudding you may hope for. Strathpeffer is very relaxing, and the Strathpeffer hotel is perfectly adequate for a short stay. I'll stay here again.

The owner doesn't know the difference between historic and rotten. The Auld Lang Syne, being its…read moreonly selling point for this shaky hotel, has been over advertised by the owner. The breakfast was edible, but the dinner was like living hell. The owner dragged customers onto the stage and force them to sing Auld Lang Syne, while they just wanted to eat their mediocre food cooked by an elementary school teacher without interruption. There's no WiFi above 2nd floor, hot water supply was limited, water leaks everywhere, and sofas smelled like cats had died in the cushion. Plural cats. Here's a medal shelf in the bathroom.

Friendly staff. Had to make a reservation to have dinner…read more Food was tasty. Two had bangers and mash, one had a vegetable tart, and I had the bolonaise pasta. Because we hadn't had a meal since breakfast, we decided to eat early at 5:30. Absolutely no one else in the massive dining room. Reservation required...? Apparently a bus load of people we're delayed. It was built in 1911 and had charm but could use a wee bit of TLC.

Our night at Tulloch Castle Hotel was an experience we will never forget. It's not our typical…read morehotel choice but we were celebrating an anniversary so we splurged. It was incredibly worth it. The main staircase led only to our room. Outside our door was a chair that was hundreds of years old. A throne, basically. Story is that Queen Victoria sat in it...maybe, maybe not. Still amazing. The room was stunning. The copper tub was my highlight. We asked about a ghost tour. They said "come back at 10:45". We forced ourselves to stay awake. We met Rodney. It was just the 3 of us. He proceeded to give us a 2+ hour long history of the castle with a tour that included the dungeon. Directly under OUR room. And yes, ghost stories with photos. As much as I wanted to be scared, Rodney could tell I also wanted to sleep so he kept the stories tame and didnt share them about our particular room. It retrospect I wish he had. Who needs sleep? We had dinner in their bar, The Green Lady. It was delicious and I discovered rubarb and ginger Edinburgh Gin. Our stay was outstanding. Everything we had hoped for. Recommend 100%!

The beautiful plaster ceilings, wooden banisters, and overall preserved elegance were noted and the service to present all the meals showed the staff truly cared about making everything special. I could see this being a lovely destination wedding venue or something special since Dingwall is so close to Inverness. The story of the family that lived here was interesting and apparently if your lucky you can see a ghost!

So having taken a family of four to both Ill give you some tips. They are both lovely ways to stay but if you want your kids close and safe while still having a door between you for alone time with your partner stay in the inn. If you plan to make your own meals to save money stay in the bunkhouse. But even if you choose the bunkhouse it's worth paying for a breakfast in the Inn.
