New beds please.
Hotel was lovely. Well decorated and friendly, helpful hosts. Public areas and the rooms are comfortable and of a high standard. Kettle and tea/coffee in room were of high quality. However, it was let down by poor quality beds that had a weak base and were not suitable for large adults. They broke immediately upon sitting on the mattress. This will be a lovely hotel when beds are replaced with units that are suitable for enduring use by multiple guests.

Delicious dinner options
Room was small. Looked out on an unkempt garden. But the couple who own the place work very hard to keep the hotel open. Off the beaten track, but very nice location for traveling the NC500.

A good experience
Off the beaten path, but a great quiet hotel.. Evening meal and breakfast were great. To see a huge stag deer walking past outside the bedroom window was priceless.

Drum roll for Drumbeg!
A warm welcome and a clean bed and room await you at the Drumbeg Hotel. A small family run hotel nestled in the Notthern Highlands where the owners do everything they can to make your stay a pleasant one. Good food and a particularly good breakfast!!

Don’t miss this place!
Not easy to get to is an understatement but on our whistle stop 12 day tour round Scotland this was one of the best places we stayed. The food was all home cooked and outstanding and the hosts, Richard and Fiona were just the most wonderful people you could hope to meet. Richard is hilarious and I would stay there again just to catch up with him! 5 star stay!!! Don’t pass it by!

A gem!
Fab overnight stay. Plenty of space to park. Check in was easy Beds comfy and all you need for a simple rest and good night sleep Lovely bar and Richard was great company with his funny stories and good nature Food was excellent, home cooked lamb shank and beef pie for mains and lovey haggis and a goats cheese starters. Breakfast was the best we had so far in Scotland! Huge portion, good choice and very tasty! Recommend this place to stay, your not gonna get the Ritz but you are going to get a very clean pleasant comfortable room in a welcoming hotel, amazing views, with cracking food and a good night sleep Would recommend We had a blast! Thanks to Fiona also for her fab tasty food!

A lovely stay as this homely hotel. Room was cosy and uniquely decorated. Service was good and food was lovely. A slower pace for our over night stay with a friendly warm welcome from the owner. Lovely bar and entrance area and other guests were very friendly. Road in and out (20plus miles) was very narrow

This was the perfect overnight stopping point for us. We needed somewhere along the Drumbeg road where we could stay the night compfrtably, which served a nice dinner and breakfast. All of this was easily accomplished at the Drumbeg Hotel. We arrived shortly after 4pm. We pre-ordered our dinner from the lovely menu, then had a cup of tea. Before dinner a drink in the bar then through for some great dinner dishes and pudding. Excelent full breakfast in the morning then on with our journey. Simple, comfortable, clean and friendly.

Amazing staff, superb food, lovely place.
What a lovely place. The owners are a delight. The food was superb. The take away breakfast was delicious and more than sufficient and an unexpected treat as we had to leave early to catch a ferry. The road to the hotel provides amazing scenery but is treacherous so drive with care. We would highly recommend!

A gem in Drumbeg
Our one night stay in the Drumbeg hotel was a real easure. The ow ers go out of their way to make you feel at home. Home cooked dinner and breakfast are superb. The Venison cooked in redcurrant jelly was excellent. A great place to stay on the NC500

If you find yourself in the middle of nowhere and need a nice break, Drumbeg hotel is friendly, clean, affordable and their meals are delicious. The beds in our twin bed room were extremely uncomfortable so we didn’t really Sleep but the tea was lovely.
