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.

I have had way worster experiences and I feel like these reviews are more for the hotel itself rather than just the restaurant itself so I do want to be somewhat fair. With all that being said... I can't confidently recommend the restaurant here. The Caesar salad was literally the only thing that was somewhat edible. I had been in Scotland for almost a week at this point and it was also the first time that I had ever been charged for water. That was something I kinda wished they would have mentioned to us if they were going to do that. That's not cool man. It really comes off as shady. For food I ordered the Seafood Risotto and there was practically no flavor. When I asked my friends how they felt about their dishes, it was unanimous around the table. Maybe the chef just quit the night before and they were trying to make do with what they have and know? It's just weird right? You see the pictures and see how cool The Inch looks inside and out and just figure if they have a restaurant that it's going to have at least "some" form of quality to the food. But there was none to be found unfortunately and you are left just feeling like this place is a tourist trap. So yea can't recommend the food here. Then again it is a small area. Maybe that's just all the people know? It'd be really sad if that was actually the case. My only hope is that the staying there for the night is an actual 5 star experience.

When we checked in the lovely girl came outside to greet us. It was the sweetest hotel check in ever!! Our room was lovely. There's a huge living room with a fireplace that they lit downstairs.

It was absolutely beautiful and peaceful. The food in the restaurant was superior. They rent out the whole place for weddings and I'm trying to talk my best friend into getting married there it was so great.

They presented each course, explaining the preparation, etc. We really enjoyed our experience and the delicious food. Everything was presented beautifully. We stayed in the garden rooms which are a newer addition to the hotel. They had great views. The rooms were clean and they provided goodies in the coffee/tea/refrigerator area.

The Whitebridge has a long reputation for being a local staple as well as a community support. This comes as no surprise as it is comfortable, traditional (maybe a little eccentric), and features local produce and goods. Built in 1899, it has retained all the charm that visitors to the area might hope for. Our party had several meals there (breakfast and dinner) and found the food and service to be very good. We made certain to book a reservation each evening to be sure we could dine comfortably and found the dining room to be full more often than not. My favorite menu item may be the Angry Stag, a Highland spiced venison burger with applewood smoked chaddar, sriracha mayo, and house-made pickled jalapenos. I can also speak well of their lasagna, which I found to be hearty and filling. The pub is well-stocked with an extensive selection of Scottish whisky, regionally-produced small-batch gins, and local ales. I enjoyed a new-to-me gin (and tonic) each evening I was there. The Whitebridge had just changed hands the week before our arrival (early November 2025) which will, no doubt, influence the feel of the place in the years to come. As the new owners are aware of the place The Whitebridge holds in the area, I imagine that will only be enhanced. Things to know: * The Whitebridge's picturesque location means it is not close to petrol or other services. * Loch Ness is close. Travel time to the southern end (Fort Augustus) is about 20 minutes. About 40 minutes north to Inverness. * The Whitebridge is dog-friendly.

We were there for over half an hour, and after my parents were given their preliminary order of tea, we essentially became invisible. I might have been more understanding and patient if the restaurant had been busy, but it was a quiet Tuesday evening where not even half the tables were filled and there were numerous waiters and waitresses who didn't seem particularly harried. So we finally got up and left. One of the staff thanked me on my way out and I wanted to say, "For what?" Also, for all the lovely views of the Loch, I couldn't stop my eyes from being drawn to the half-dozen massive flies skittering across the windows. Gross. Disappointed.
