Omg. I loved this place. The house was perfect, the bed comfortable and Mr. and Mrs. Caldwell could…read morenot have been sweeter or more helpful. We talked poor Mrs. Caldwell's ear off over breakfast but she took it like a champ without even one complaint. And Mr. Caldwell's comments in a conversation with my husband will have us both cracking up for days. I would definitely recommend straightening up a bit before you leave for the day. They'll straighten your bed for you and you may have a moment of embarrassment if, like us, you rush out in the morning leaving your things a mess. I would choose Amulree every time if we were to go back to Inverness.

This is a very well done and beautiful site. The battle itself was simple and compact, so it's…read morequite easy to explore and imagine what happened. The museum is terrific, with carefully selected artifacts providing depth, not walls of guns. The dual track layout telling each side of the story is one rarely used but works well here.

Just hearing that initial description of the place made it a very somber experience. We had a guided tour of the battlefield that provided additional information and knowledge. There were some highland cows and other cattle on the back fields. They were behind an electric fence at the time of our visit but they were a nice sight to see during this visit.

Regardless, the cab driver will often let you choose your own route (within reason of course!) so you know you're not being ripped off by taking you the long way and charging you extra, as some other companies are well known for doing.

The Villa itself, no Breakfast available, is not very comfortable as no rooms apart from the bedroom will be provided. The room is quite small, not nice and not very orderly. The bathroom is also small and spoiled. So especially in regard to the price I cannot recommend the Villa.

I came across the National Hotel when I took my grandmother out for a meal one Sunday. She…read moresuggested it, and I'm glad that she did. It was easy to park, as there is a car park behind the hotel, and it was easy to get in and to find a seat. They have a dining area, as well as the bar for bar meals. The decor is alright, nothing fancy, but it is clean and well kept. The staff are lovely, very nice, and chirpy. Will chat away with no problems. The portions of the meals you receive is a fair size, value for money, and are delicious. All the produce is local. I never normally take haggis when i'm out, but boy there haggis was out of this world, with a beautiful whiskey sauce. I loved it. The National Hotel is very popular and has many functions here, from weddings, birthday and engagement parties, to funeral teas. The service is outstanding, and I'd recommend it to anyone.

I was looking for a hotel in the Highlands not far from Inverness and on way to Ullapool and I…read morefound it. Prices vary, such best to call the hotel and get quotations. You will always pay more when asking for a double room for single occupancy, but sometimes there can be good deals. The driveway to the hotel and the entrance itself are amazing to look at. You feel like you are entering the world of the privileged during the time of Queen Victoria. Strathpepper is an old Victorian Spa town and has been a gathering point for many noble families and the rich. Nowadays its only a shell of its former selve. But still, its worth the visit and I assume that Ben Wyvis Hotel was once one of its kind. Nowadays it needs a complete make over. Having said this, people return to this place, because of its Victorian charm. I felt the carpet in the public area needs replacing, the rooms some decorating (especially the bathrooms) and the ceilings a lot of paint to cover up the cracks. As you are in the middle of nowhere its a good idea to eat in the hotel. I was informed at the reception that their restaurant is fully booked in the evening, but when I turned up at my given time, the dining hall was half empty. I found out that they were understaffed and people off sick. I ordered a three course dinner and must confess that the quality was quite good and I would definitely go back just to dine there. Afterwards you could retreat to the lounge and enjoy a tea or coffee. I met some people in the hotel, such it was a very pleasant evening to remember. When I had ordered a gin tonic the staff could not find certain ingredients and it took them a long time to make me the drink, especially because I was their only customer in the lounge. Having said this, I got it for free. How kind :-) My room and bathroom were old fashioned and the fire doors closing and opening during the night totally interrupted my sleep. The TV was ancient. At least it was quiet in my room on occasion and I needed not to worry about ghosts, or did I ? :-) Would I go back? Yes maybe, but then I would try to get a room in the front building with awesome views towards Ben Wyvis.

There, the Ben Wyvis offers lots of rooms, a quick food service operation and photogenic main rooms and grounds. That's why it's a favorite of motorcoach tours. Behind the classic exterior it's less satisfying. The rooms need investment. Fixtures are old, windows have no screens and TVs are tiny. There's no concierge and services in general are lacking. If you want breakfast, dinner and a room, it's okay. A grand hotel it's not.

It doesn't look that inviting from the outside but on the inside expect spacious rooms, tiled floors, quality furniture including comfortable beds, leather sofas and flat screen tellys. You can cook in the kitchen of the cafe (you have to go outside to get to it but it's not a big hassle) so it's well fitted out with good cooking equipment. The cafe does breakfast so you can get them to cook for you, although it doesn't do evening meals so you have to fend for yourself for dinner or drive further afield to find a restaurant. I came here in December and it was amazing to have somewhere this nice to come back to after endless boggy walks through blizzards. The countryside is beautiful in this area but if you don't like walking there's castles and picturesque towns to wander round plus Loch Ness.
