Lovely little place to stop

Stunning location and room was immaculately clean. We ate at the pub next door which is the same owner as the hotel, food was excellent. The only small criticism (and it didn’t really bother us because it was only a one night stay) is that there only seemed to be two channels we could get on Tv and no WiFi connection in room , so we couldn’t access Netflix

Great motel just in front of a loch. Stunning views. Pub next door where you can have dinner. Very friendly owners. Superb room, incredibly clean and well appointed. Out of the way but that is exactly what we wanted. Would love to visit again.

Only a few rooms, quiet and peaceful in a beautiful location with wonderful hosts, kitchen, views, and a nice pub. Extraordinarily delicious, simple fare, made in house. Beyond reasonably priced.

Altnacealgach Motel and Inn

Very beautiful setting. Small property run by a warm, friendly and accommodating couple who run it entirely by themselves. Clean, spacious, simple and modern accommodation in motel-style rooms overlooking the loch with some facilities to self-cater or you can eat in their small Inn next door (we did the latter. It only seats 12 so booking is essential, all in the conservatory with the lovely loch to look at). The menu is limited (understandably) but there are some pub favourites on there, burgers, chilli etc. You can also get a good hot breakfast with various options in the Inn. Quite reasonable compared to other establishments in the area. Located just off the NC500 route. You're staying on a remote Scottish loch so pack your midgie spray!

Friendly greeting by hostess on arrival. Comfortable room with adequate facilities. Inconvenient to have to go to the bar to connect to WiFi especially as the bar was not always open and host most unhelpful.

Pleasant comfortable stay. Hosts accomodated our late arrival & adjusted our pre booked dinner time hassle free as we were running later than expected. Dinner & breakfast were good. The porridge was excellent Good Coffee No wifi in our accomodation area. Poor reception for mobile device too. Good for a complete switch off, but if you are looking to plan ahead in the evening, call family or need to work not ideal. Unless you use the inn Overall a great stay & would return

Great place to stay on NC500!

Quiet and secluded place on the NC500. The owners are lovely people who run a tight ship and great pub / breakfast. The stay was amazing and one of our favorites as we ended our tour of Scotland.

Priceless view from the window.

I loved that place. Very quiet natural spot at the front of the lake. Perfect place to relax, think, calm down and charge you personal batteries. The view from the window is priceless. I couldn't stop looking through the window. This are my personal feelings. We were there just one night but was enough to rest and feel better to go in further trip. The room had everything what we needed, very comfy bed. The host are very nice. We've booked reservation for evening meal in restaurant and we had venison cheeseburger with adds and leek and potato soup made by lady owner. Yummy. I've never had soo tasty soup.

To be honest, the description "motel" had filled me with some trepidation. It was unnecessary. The rooms were modern, clean and comfortable. The owners were very helpful responding to queries I had pre-visit about accessibility and food options for a coeliac. I would recommend this place.

Overnight in Altnacealgach.

Lovely quiet location in an area where it is difficult to find a place. Not too expensive, room was clean and fairly well organised, enough facilities to cook a meal and plenty of hot water for showering. Good views across the loch. No minuses apart from the weather, parking at rear outside the room so car was close at hand. All in, I’d give a respectable 88/100. Heating was a bit challenging to get to work but once on it kept me toasty.
