Cute wee room

Stayed for one night as it was close to Ben Hope. The room was old fashioned, but in a good way . Loved the tartan accessories and the big deep bath was an unexpected nice surprise . I would stay there again if I was going back to that part of the country

The Altnaharra Hotel is a backstep in the past. The staff was really nice. The room, the hall, everything is well manteined and frozen in the '80ies.
