Spent a night at the Craggan as part of a tour round Scotland on 2 Harleys. We were made very welcome, the place is spotlessly clean, the locals are friendly, the service was prompt and friendly, and the food was nothing but memorable. Add in the incredible views, and I would be back again if it wasn't so far. Do... More

Visited this place as was staying in a nearby b&b. Very surprised. Doesn't look anything much from the outside but the food is fantastic. To start I had Oven Roasted Apple & Pear with Pan Fried Goats Cheese and a Sweet Chilli Sauce. Delicious. To follow I had Pan Fried Loch Eriboll Scallops with Sauteed Potatoes, Tomato Salsa and Sweetcorn... More

We ate here on a very quiet night and felt like we were interrupting the chatting/flirting between chef and waitress, we think was a case of no one about in charge. We were not made to feel welcome. Very basic errors in the cooking and unfortunately we did the very British thing and didn't complain, although we waited to be... More

We phoned and booked in advance. My 18 year old Daughter is a very very picky eater. I asked if they had a cheese pasta dish on the menu and was told the only thing they had was pizza (one of the few other things for her palate). Upon arrival we were informed the chief had arranged a special dish... More

Fantastic hotel all round set in a gorgeous part of Scotland. The owner and staff made us feel so welcome and provided a great service through local advice and hospitality. 10 out of 10 and will definitely be going back!

We were staying locally and decided to go to The Craggan for lunch. We waited for 45 minutes for a sandwich & panini to be served by an utterly disinterested young girl. The lady owner eventually did a round of the few patrons dining, clearly expecting to be told that we were delighted with our dining experience. She was downright... More

We go to the Hotel pretty late but were welcomed very friendly and warm. The rooms are small but clean and comfy. We had some trouble with the TV in our room but got changed to a different room straight away -however, the view out of this window wasn't very nice. It's a shared bathroom but even though we weren't... More

We called in to the Craggan after a very long drive and were made very welcome, a lovely roaring fire in the bar. The young man who served us was very helpful, we were too early for the evening menu but the bar menu had lots of variety. Our meals were absolutely delicious and the service was second to none....

We recently spent a long weekend staying in the Craggan. The staff were very friendly came away feeling we had known each other for years. The accommodation was clean and fresh. The food was out of this world, very inventive and extremely good value for money. Can't wait to got back. Bar at night was quiet but enjoyable. Lovely location... More

This is a small hotel with several bedrooms with shared facilities and is conveniently located for travellers to the remote North coast of Scotland. Accomodation was very clean, value for money, and provided a good night's rest. The restaurant had a good selection of menu items. The £24.95 "taster menu" of four courses was in one word outstanding, and of... More
