This was a gem of a property! We loved everything about it. The views were phenomenal and with the property facing east, it was perfect for watching the morning sun rise. Everything was exceptionally clean and the lounge was so cosy. The beds were comfortable and my family of four had a very restful nights sleep.

Lovely family-run boutique hotel in an exceptional location. Very good restaurant that serves dinner and breakfast - both of which we enjoyed very much. The pub and bar area located in the hotel are great for a pre-dinner drink or night cap

Tongue is set in one of the most beautiful landscapes in Scotland. There are lovely views of Ben Loyal and of the sandbars of the Kyle of Tongue. There's a great 40 minute walk up to Castle Varrich which has fabulous views.

Having driven by car west coast section of Route 500 in a day, was beautiful but tiring , to stay over in Tongue(hotel) is a perfect base to complete north coast via Thurso and John o Groats and East coast sections. Then on home journey, followed middle section road A836 to Lairg and beyond. Hotel in Tongue offers easy access to all routes (North coast, East and South )and with good road conditions in summer. Petrol and small store available. Tranquil scenic area with lots of good walks. Families with young as well as teenage families enjoy the area Popular with cyclists and bikers

Make sure you do the walk from the main road, down to the river, cross it and climb to Varrich Castle ruins. Good exercise after a day in the car and the most wonderful views. Dinner and breakfast at the Ben Loyal was really good. The locals in the bar were so friendly. Many thanks to Fergus and Findlay!

The location really is spectacular, right on the shore line. It was amazing to see the tide going in and out and the beautiful scenery surrounding the Kyle of Tongue. The cottage itself is very comfortable, clean and very well equipped. There couldn't be a better place to stay to explore this part of Scotland. We loved staying there and would have enjoyed a longer time than we had available.

We loved everything about this hotel! From the absolutely stunning location, conveniently located for some great hikes, to the above and beyond friendliness of the staff (special shoutout to Mike!), to cozy and atmospheric rooms, incl. great bathrooms and a little welcome sherry. We stayed at 5 different properties in various parts of the Highlands and this was our favorite and a true gem.

The Tongue Hotel has the feel of a historic property that has been kept up and given just the right amount of modernization. We only spent one night here as we were traveling through, but I could see staying here for several day.
