It is a well located place to stay in the town alongside Loch Ness. And the staff were very friendly. I got a lot of good information about where to hike and things to do in Drumnadrochit, and I had a great couple of days. I also got great help getting me and my bicycle to the Isle of Skye on the bus, for which I am very grateful. Thank you so much for the great stay.

It’s a place to spend the night. No luxuries and blankets did not smell the best, but it was fun sitting at the picnic tables eating and drinking.

The view of the river and trees in the seating area behind the bunkhouse was beautiful. The staff were wonderful but reception being closed until 4pm makes it difficult to find help if you have any questions during the day. There were also no lockers in the rooms, or much space for personal storage. Other than that it was all lovely.
