Nothing special… meh.

Disappointed in the lack of charm, information and service that generally accompany a B&B. There was no communication prior to arrival, and no responses to messages we sent or times we tried to call for information. Our reception was dark and cold with very little personal interaction. The room was spacious, but very hot. There were no blackout curtains, which meant wit was only dark from 11:00-3:30am. There was no information in the room about the local area, so we really struggled learning our way around. On a positive note, the Royal Dornoch golf club was close by and an easy drive. If I had it to do over again, I would stay in Inverness and just drive up for the golf.

Came up to Nigg for work for a few days. Availability meant that I could only stay for one night, but would have happily stayed here for the whole trip. Clean, friendly and an excellent breakfast. Exactly what I was looking for.
