One of the loveliest B&B experiences ever. Morag, our hostess was a treasure. Her culinary skills and hospitality were exceptional. We stopped for an overnight enroute to Isle of Skye...a respite we won't soon forget.

Hidden Gem
The Hightae Inn is a little gem. It’s clean, beautifully decorated and quite obviously run with much thought and love. We had such a friendly welcome and Morag was a superb host throughout. Our evening meal (at extra cost) was 3 courses of amazing food with expert flavourings. Morag is an amazing cook. Highly recommended and yes we will be back for another stay soon.

Morag is a perfect host, very welcoming and friendly. The room was immaculately clean. The food was also amazing, with homemade breads and deserts. It’s worth staying here just for the food.

Another superb stay at The Hightae. This a gem of a place - spotlessly clean, warm and cosy and the most friendly of service. Food is absolutely delicious. Can’t recommend this highly enough.

A personal touch
The hosts were exceptionally welcoming and the Inn itself is cozy (log stove) and the bedroom was very comfortable and quiet. The food was freshly prepared and of a goof quality - Morag is a skilled cook. Breakfast comprised choices and my sourdough pancakes with bacon and maple syrup were delicious. I would go back again and know I will enjoy my stay.

A gem of a place to stay
A lovely former pub converted into a super comfy guesthouse. We had an amazing stopover, Morag is the most helpful and friendly host anyone could want, and made us an amazing breakfast. The room was spotless and so so comfy. Totally recommended!

Superb - Small but Perfectly Formed
An excellent "restaurant with rooms" - friendly welcome, spotlessly clean and comfortable room, lounge to relax in and then a beautifully cooked meal. Short menu (3 or 4 choices for each course), top quality ingredients and some real flair in the cooking and presentation. Comfy bed, good night's sleep and then a great breakfast - not a ridiculous 'plate busting' Full Scottish, but a selection of impeccably cooked hot items (eg smoked salmon and scrambled eggs) and lots of fruit and cereal and toasted home-made breads. It's a lovely place - with lovely hosts we'll be back Dave

The best of the best
We didn't want to review this gem, as it is a rare find and by doing so more will want to stay. So We hope that by writing this there will still be space for us in the future. The whole experience was friendly, relaxing and a place we could visit time and time again. The food was outstanding and the breakfast was to die for. Five stars all the way.
