10/10 Exceptional

Coul House is an exceptional choice for a relaxing stay, with the accessibility to Highlands! We were able to visit the Isle of Skye and several other great attractions. The breakfast has delicious choices and dinner is an excellent fine-dining option. The gardens are very well maintained and add to the beauty of the villa.

We were celebrating our 35th Wedding Anniversary. Stayed for 1 night. Throughly enjoyed. Food was lovely and staff were so friendly and helpful. Beautiful room.

Great hotel

As we drove in the sign said deliciously relaxing and that couldn’t have been any truer. The staff and surroundings are warm, friendly and welcoming. Food was beautiful and a walk in the grounds on a clear night is breathtaking. Absolutely recommend a stay here. Nothing was to much trouble and breakfast was fabulous too. Thank you for taking care of us.
Gemma, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is just perfect if you want a quality, understated, comfortable and quite break. Lovely grounds, staff get the balance of being friendly but not intrusive just right. Dogs are made welcome everywhere except the main dining room. Service top notch (nice to go somewhere these days where there are enough staff). Rooms are comfortable and crisp white sheets and the most comfortable beds made me feel like I was floating on a cloud! We had dinner in the dining room each night and the food was delicious. Strathpeffer is a lovely walk away or a few minutes by car and is well worth exploring. Dingwall is the nearest place with more high street names, Tesco, Lidl etc as well as some lovely independent shops on the high street. Loved my stay and will return anytime I visit the highlands.
Sheena, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Check-in was a breeze. As soon as you walk into the foyer the large open fireplace set the tone for our stay. Warm and inviting. Rooms are upstairs with no lift but help with the bags is available. Room was a bit small but well equipped with amazing shower (no bath). Flush handle on the toilet was loose but worked fine. No need to leave the hotel for food as the restaurant is first class and breakfast as good as I have had anywhere. Service was first class with staff very helpful and knowledgeable. They have a lounge where you can sit before dinner and after for a scotch or a coffee. Their stock of scotch is excellent and the owner seems to have tried them all. Would recommend this hotel for anyone wishing to stay and explore the highlands.

Das Personal ist extrem freundlich und zuvorkommend! Wir haben und als Familie mit zwei Kleinkindern sehr willkommen gefühlt! Es hat auf dem Gelände ein paar freie Kaninchen, an welchen unsere Tochter sehr Freude hatte! Das Essen ist ein Traum! Vor allem das Dinner war so gut, dass wir jeden Abend dort gegessen hatten. Wir können das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen!

Beautiful renovated hotel in the Highlands, with lovely dining and breakfast. We enjoyed the stay. There are walking paths around the hotel and hiking trails all over the local area.
Sasha, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The most wonderful stay of our 3 week visit to England, Scotland and Ireland! The owners (they work there everyday) are delightful people, warm and gracious! They have been on a 20 year mission to lovingly upgrade the Grand Dame of Scotland and are succeeding! The Coul House is THE best value for what you get in return. The gardens are lovely, the Fairy Trails delightful, the food, drinks and service spectacular! Our room was well appointed, clean and thoughtfully decorated The Highlands of Scotland are not to be missed! Inverness is a wonderful town just 20 minutes away. We love the Coul House and look forward to our return! Bravo!
