Built in 1899 and located on the 'quiet' side of Loch Ness, this hotel has fishing rights on two local lochs. The hotel has been successful in gaining several recent awards. Inside, the attractive pitch-pine panelled bar with a welcoming wood-burning stove has an adjacent area for dining. The food menu is based on local produce and is highly-regarded. Cromarty Happy Chappy is usually stocked throughout the year with Black Isle beers added during the summer season.
