Ben Wyvis Hotel

8/10 Good
"This is a beautiful spot. Breakfast was very good. The room was clean. Only complaint is we couldn’t turn the heater off in our room. The front clerk said would look after and then when we asked again later she said maintenance gone home so eventually it would turn off as was on a timer. It did but we had both windows open until about 9pm. The other two staff we interacted with were lovely."
