We spent two nights here last week using the Groupon deal, which brought the price down to about £35 per person, per night. This included two breakfasts and a three course meal with whiskey tasting. I can't really comment on the full price rates but using this deal I can't stress enough how good that value actually is... Room was... More

Stayed here for one night in room 5. Fantastic location the views are to die for and the wildlife is everywhere you turn. The room was great with a massive bed with a flatscreen and DVD player, along with a choice of DVD's from the bar downstairs, this is a great idea for those who want an early night in... More

We booked Muckrack a couple of days out and were lucky to get a room as on arrival the hotel seemed busy. The service throughout was very good and we are particular fans of this location. The food was very nice, it seemed fresh and likely locally sourced. I did think the food was a little on the expensive side,... More

We enjoyed our stay at Muckrach, our dinner not so much. The rooms we stayed in were large enough, clean, and quaint. The views from our windows were lovely. The surrounding area was quiet, picturesque...a perfect setting. We thoroughly enjoyed drinks on the terrace & thought how we could carry away the highland cattle that live in front of the... More

When we had to cancel our trip in February (owing to illness), we gladly paid the £30 reallocation fee and £60 to upgrade to a superior room. The staff were very understanding about our postponement and we visited a couple of months later. The hotel has certainly seen better days but is a lovely building and the lounge has books... More

The whole experience was a disappointment. The room was very small with no heating. A fan heater was in the corner which when put on was very noisy. The single glazing made the room lose heat rapidly. We were asked what time we wanted dinner and said 7·30. After sitting in the lounge for nearly 45 minutes with an overpriced... More

My family, my wife and myself have been staying at the Muckrach Lodge Hotel since 1971. We have always found the hotel to be comfortable, its owners and staff very welcoming and its menu fully reflective of that found in many Scottish Country House Hotels, relying on fresh local ingredients according to season and regular changes in the menu that...

Thank you so much for this review. Everyone gets a great morale boost when travellers who understand what we offer enjoy the experience. Statistically a dissatisfied customer is ten times more likely to complain than a satisfied customer is to praise. This distorts the picture for establishments that do not massage their listings or their guests. Applying the logic of... More

Although we have lived in the area for over 7 years - and have had a drink in the Muckrach - we had never had a meal there - until tonight. We had a booking for 8pm - but due to other guests who had "delayed" their appearance - everything from then on was held up - so we were... More

As part of a group of 4 travelling South from Inverness to sample Muckrach Lodge for the first time last night, I was very much looking forward to it. I had looked at the menu on the website and it sounded delicious. The lodge itself looked inviting and I was hoping for an evening of luxury but instead had an... More

The food was lukewarm (all three courses), staff had a fake smile on all day, the building itself is falling to bits inside, our room (No.4) was the most disgusting room I have ever stayed in.

Finally, after about six attempts, this reviewer is able to post something free enough of abuse and mindless vitriol for Tripadvisor to leave up. Such self control is to be lauded, although the persistence does border on obsession. This man stayed with his 'girlfriend' who made the booking. They chose to use a discount voucher from Groupon; these are valid... More
