"Really quaint rooms with a pretty view of the water. The dining room was lovely - and we had a great dinner and breakfast. Would definitely stay here again."

"Beautiful hotel and room. Staff very nice and helpful. No tv in room. A bit overpriced"

Duisdale House Hotel

Duisdale House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We arrived late, they were just about to wrap up serving dinner. Manager said just sit at the bar - have a drink and eat your dinner first then we will take care of the luggages. They took our order and served us delicious steaks, wine and then helped us with our luggage. They did all this smoothly and naturally, which made us feel very welcomed. Breakfast was great, not elaborately large spread, but enough of each category to meet our 10 veggie and protein intake targets effortlessly and delicately. Overall we couldn’t be happier and left very satisfied with the service, food and our clean, large cottage. If we come back to Highland Scotland we will definitely stay here again and recommend it to everyone also."
