I cannot say enough about how special this place is. The welcome, ambience, decor, comfort, food, personal touches and presentation all made for a fantastic stay. Robert is a wonderful host and Glen is a superb chef. Just what you want after a long day walking in the pouring rain.

The Smiddy (not a hotel; it's a restaurant with rooms) sits exactly at the point where the A86 meets the A82.

Tea and cake (with a welcome glass of sherry) was served... More

Robert and Glen never fail to make you feel that serving you dinner is their pleasure. Glen producing the best food and to find this level of cooking in a highland village is unexpected. From the moment you arrive, Robert treats you as a friend who has stopped in for dinner. Excellent waitressing and great atmosphere complete the package.
