We stayed here one night after 5days of hiking an alternative route of the Cape Wrath trail. A beautiful track, but because of Storm Babet also sometimes quite challenging (with extreme wind, snow, rain, and rivers in spate) Arriving in Strathcarron all trains were canceled because of the storm, but luckely for us there was the Strathcarron Hotel. A haven of hospitality, great local food and a comfortable room. We thank Richard, the super friendly owner for his warm welcome and help arranging transport back to our car. Krista and Ruud

Stopped here on my Cape Wrath hike and was so glad I did. The family that run the place are absolutely wonderful- Islay, Charlotte, Rebecca and Richard all work so hard to make the place warm and welcoming and their hard work really does show, whether they are out front or working hard behind the scenes to make sure everyone has a great stay. The food, service and room was all excellent and would recommend this stop off to all fellow Cape Wrath Hikers. The warm welcoming atmosphere is so nice after a hard day in the hills and you quickly feel at home. Thanks you lot for a great stay πŸ™Œ

The loveliest, friendliest place at a very welcome point in the CWT. Warm welcomes, great food, and a happy atmosphere. Richard, Rebecca and Islay go out their way to be helpful and whether I have camped or stayed in a room, I have had a comfortable night's sleep

Stayed overnight at the Strathcarron hotel both in July 2022 and June 2023 while on the trail. Richard and Becca were more than welcoming, took in my ressuply packages, and were just lovely to chat with at dinner and breakfast. The food was great and the rooms perfectly clean. It was a pleasure!

What a lovely stay! We stayed here while exploring the isle of Skye β€” it was about 40 minutes to Skye but was much more affordable than other options. The rooms were appropriate. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly β€” Richard who greeted us was great! We were invited to hang out in the pub after we arrived, but we’re too tired to accept the offer. We got a full Scottish breakfast in the morning included!
