Hotels near Loch a'Chreadha

"I have very mixed feelings about my two-night stay at Altnaharra Hotel. There were some huge positives: the staff were superb, the restaurant food was excellent, and the downstairs ambience was exactly what you hope for in a Highland hotel — open fires, comfy sofas, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The location itself is also incredibly special. I paid around £150 per night room-only via Expedia as a treat while touring the Highlands. First impressions of my single room, “Sika,” were good, but little things soon started to niggle. The old wall heater worked but the room was still cold overnight. The controls area had been painted over and one knob came away, so I couldn’t increase the heat. The bathroom towel rail also didn’t work, making it unpleasantly chilly for showering. The PAT sticker was dated 2010. The bath taps and shower area needed a much deeper clean. To the hotel’s credit, staff quickly provided an extra blanket for my second night, although the first one was dirty and had to be replaced. This was handled politely and promptly, but unfortunately added to the disappointments. That’s what makes this difficult to review. I genuinely loved the communal areas, atmosphere, food, staff, and setting. However, the bedroom itself was tired and disappointing for the price paid. I hope “Sika” is the exception and I was simply unlucky. If travelling solo, I’d suggest requesting a different room. All that said, there is still something undeniably special about the hotel"

"Shower did the job, but nothing special"

"Good breakfast"

"No beach view, unique stay which we enjoyed, shame it was right beside the road with little privacy."

"Lovely, spacious rooms and delightful staff. Dinner menu was fantastic and we took up the offer for packed lunches (sandwich, yoghurt, crisps and delicious rocky road) for our continuing NC500 journey which were excellent and very inexpensive. Loved the laid back atmosphere, we felt comfortable and at home. Definitely recommend! "

"This pod is bigger than it looks we were over the moon. Unfortunately we were only staying one night . In the morning we had 8 deer in the field opposite our pod. Excellent welcome pack with milk and breakfast items plus 4 eggs. We wished we had been staying longer"

"Lovely property, would love to come again. So homely with everything you need to relax. Very helpful host and good communication."

"A truly lovely stay. So welcoming and accommodating. Personal attention. Will be back. As an American, I really appreciated the washcloth."

"House was nice and clean, stocked with some of the basics you like to find (salt& pepper, washing liquids etc). The hosts made contact and offered to light the fire for our arrival which we were grateful for having got rather wet in the morning. We were also able to do a load of laundry before continuing our road trip. The local was a bit of a hidden gem being in between the Lochs, the access by harbour was great and our boys really enjoyed having the place to themselves for a while. It was a very welcome stop"
