BEN WYVIS HOTEL

The Ben  Wyvis Hotel is seeped in tradition, warmth and charm. Original features, such as chandeliers and stained glass windows blend seamlessly with contemporary fabrics and subtle earthy tones. It's a delightful place to spend an evening. You can relax by a roaring log fire in the bar and enjoy a huge selection of hand-picked wines and whiskies or a mouth-watering meal in the Jacobite Restaurant, which serves organic produce, beef, fish and game. There's also a 32-seat cinema.

The Ben Wyvis Hotel offers spectacular views of Ben Wyvis itself, while many rooms enjoy wonderful vistas of Strathpeffer and surrounding mountains. Rooms are replete with television, shower and bathroom, tea and coffee facilities, direct-dial telephone, hairdryer, iron and room service. Food-wise,  it's great for golfers, with a full complimentary Scottish breakfast,  lunch can be taken in the restaurant or you can have a fresh picnic basket prepared by the chef, and there's an afternoon tea on offer consisting of homemade scones.

Nearby is the Moray Firth, home to an abundance of sea life including Bottlenose dolphins, Harbour porpoise, Grey seals and Minke whales. Or why not visit Glen Ord Distillery whose malt whisky is renowned for its sweet, malty taste. If you'd rather spend more time outdoors, there's also great salmon and sea trout fishing available on the River Conon.
