Ground floor Vestibule, hallway, sumptuous guest lounge, large open plan modern kitchen and generous dining room as well a guest lounge.

There is also a commercial kitchen as well as plenty of storage space throughout the property.

First floor There are 6 well presented, en suite letting bedrooms to sleep 15.

Owners accommodation Our clients previously occupied a suite of rooms on the second floor of the property, this accommodation includes three double bedrooms (one of which is ensuite) and a separate family bathroom.

The Suie Bar The Pub is connected to the main building via the commercial kitchen although has a separate external access to the rear of the property. The bar is a great example of a local Highland bar and hostelry, where the local land owner will mix comfortably with the local joiner. This is a well presented single bar operation, offering a simple food menu.

Our clients have leased the pub out on a short term lease agreement to a local operator. The pub can be secured on a vacant possession by new owners.

Garden Cottage Located in the grounds of the business at the front of the property, there is a fantastically presented modern Garden Cottage to sleep 6. The interior comprises a light and airy kitchen/diner, living room, 3 bedrooms and bathroom. The Garden Cottage also boasts a patio, BBQ and Hot tub.

The Business The business has been in our clients capable hands for the last 23 years, during which time the property has been renovated, refurbished and expanded to todays impressive condition. Our clients are only the only the second owners in 131 years.

The accent of the business has also changed. Our clients used to operate the business as a fully serviced hotel but now operate effectively as a whole house rental with the addition of the self catering cottage in the grounds. Our clients have also leased the bar on a short term let to a local operator although vacant possession can be obtained for new owners.

This trading style offers new owners much flexibility – allowing the continuation of a very profitable self catering business or reverting back to a full service hotel.

Trading figures will be made available after a formal viewing of the business. The business trades very profitably.
