What guests think
The Cnoc Hotel draws praise for its warm, family-run hospitality and characterful charm, offering a peaceful countryside base with cozy common spaces, reliable Wi‑Fi, and consistently well-reviewed breakfasts and dinners that many guests highlight as trip standouts.
Rooms are comfortable and full of character, though several guests note dated decor, compact bathrooms, and weak shower pressure, with TVs generally absent. The rural setting near Beauly and Inverness feels quiet and scenic, perfect for walks and a relaxing break, but the isolation does not suit everyone. Expect a relaxed, traditional stay suited to unwinding.

The cnoc hotel is a lovely property just outside beauly. Its location is beautiful and quiet. The hotel includes a pub/bar a wonderful room where one can sit relax and read a book or meet with other guest and a nice dining area where they serve breakfast and dinner. Duncan the owner was anccomodating Our room and bath were large compared to other properties we have stayed at. It was clean and comfortable. The only reason for a 4 star instead of 5 star was the water pressure in the bath is low.

This Gem of an hotel is set in the countryside just 30 mins from loch ness . The owner,Duncan ,gave a real warm welcome on arrival and covered everything i needed to know about my room and facilties of the hotel. The bar has a warm atmosphere and i was able to meet and chat with other guests and share some experiences, again Duncan took an active role in making sure the evening went well. Personally i didnt have an evening meal but i did overhear from other guests and they were very complimentary. Morning breakfast was superb and is served in a sensible time of 7.30 to 9.30 am .Overall i made a good decision with choosing this hotel and would highly recommend you do the same .

I got it because it was close to where I was going but was astoundingly happy there. There area is out in the country and the property is a converted building originally built for workers on the surrounding estates. Great history and an old church on the property. Beautiful walks and a lot of birds and cows. I saw a rare woodpecker in the front and the whole dinner room stopped to come look. The hosts are an extremely nice young couple and a lot of fun to talk to. There is an excellent little drink and snack area with great options and other side of the is a very comfortable reading area. It was nice that I was able to have a drink and a small family could sit in the comfy room and read. The room was in the upstairs area you can see in the picture. It had a lot of character and was very comfortable and large. Two beds. Tea, coffee, and a delicious chocolate chip buscuit and ginger cookie. The biggest reason to stay here is that man can cook! Dinner was fantastic and breakfast was as well. Best meals I had on the trip and dinner was extremely reasonable! You are maybe 20 minutes from Beauly and under 30 from Edinburgh. Stay here for a great location, save a lot of money over noisy Edinburgh, and have fantastic food!

Hotel situated in a stunning location. Anyone looking to relax can certainly make themselves at home. Relaxed atmosphere and comfortable bed. No tv however they are trying to promote an atmosphere that does not need a tv. Not that there's much on it anyway. Also with free, fast wi-fi you can still use your phone/tablet if you need to watch something etc. Meals very nice, Steak was tasty and Haddock was in a Golden beer batter and was lovely. Pea and mint soup was tasty and fresh bread had a really nice flavour. Lovely family run hotel that provides comfort and rest. *****

Cnoc Hotel is a gem! We booked it last minute. Duncan is an amazing host and chef! Dinner and breakfast were delicious and the cozy fire in library was icing on the cake. To Expedia team - please fix the link on your site to point to the proper address. Using google maps directly searching the name works, but the link on your site routes to the middle of town.

The Cnoc Hotel is een rustig gelegen charmant sfeervol ingericht klein hotel. We zijn zeer gastvrij ontvangen door de vriendelijke eigenaar Duncin. Onze kamer was traditioneel ingericht met prima bedden. De kleine badkamer was voorzien van een douche en toilet. De wifi deed het goed. Op de kamer ontbrak alleen een TV, maar die hebben wij niet gemist. Het ontbijt is goed en wordt naar wens bereid. We hebben twee keer avond gegeten. Één keer á la carte en één keer ‘wat de pot schafte’. Het eten was twee keer uitstekend verzorgd en lekker. Dit hotel is een aanrader,!

Het is een geweldig verblijf. Een aanrader qua klantvriendelijk en gezelligheid. Beneden is het hotel heel sfeervol ingericht en het eten en de wijnen zijn er heerlijk. Vlakbij mooie natuurgebieden. De host had ons Glen Stratfarrow aangeraden wat een zeer goed advies was. Kamers boven moeten nog meegetrokken worden met beneden. Maar dat mag de pret niet drukken.

Very historic, rustic and beautiful older property. It was very quiet and the host Duncan was spectacular! We thought we were going to have to go all the way back to town for dinner. He served us a delicious meal and even dessert. The tubs are unique but functional and warm water after a bit of a warm up. Very comfy, clean and welcoming.

Also with free, fast wi-fi you can still use your phone/tablet if you need to watch something etc. Meals very nice, Steak was tasty and Haddock was in a Golden beer batter and was lovely. Pea and mint soup was tasty and fresh bread had a really nice flavour. Lovely family run hotel that provides comfort and rest. *****

I got it because it was close to where I was going but was astoundingly happy there. There area is out in the country and the property is a converted building originally built for workers on the surrounding estates. Great history and an old church on the property. Beautiful walks and a lot of birds and cows. I saw a rare woodpecker in the front and the whole dinner room stopped to come look. The hosts are an extremely nice young couple and a lot of fun to talk to. There is an excellent little drink and snack area with great options and other side of the is a very comfortable reading area. It was nice that I was able to have a drink and a small family could sit in the comfy room and read. The room was in the upstairs area you can see in the picture. It had a lot of character and was very comfortable and large. Two beds. Tea, coffee, and a delicious chocolate chip buscuit and ginger cookie. The biggest reason to stay here is that man can cook! Dinner was fantastic and breakfast was as well. Best meals I had on the trip and dinner was extremely reasonable! You are maybe 20 minutes from Beauly and under 30 from Edinburgh. Stay here for a great location, save a lot of money over noisy Edinburgh, and have fantastic food!

The cnoc hotel is a lovely property just outside beauly. Its location is beautiful and quiet. The hotel includes a pub/bar a wonderful room where one can sit relax and read a book or meet with other guest and a nice dining area where they serve breakfast and dinner. Duncan the owner was anccomodating Our room and bath were large compared to other properties we have stayed at. It was clean and comfortable. The only reason for a 4 star instead of 5 star was the water pressure in the bath is low.

I got it because it was close to where I was going but was astoundingly happy there. There area is out in the country and the property is a converted building originally built for workers on the surrounding estates. Great history and an old church on the property. Beautiful walks and a lot of birds and cows. I saw a rare woodpecker in the front and the whole dinner room stopped to come look. The hosts are an extremely nice young couple and a lot of fun to talk to. There is an excellent little drink and snack area with great options and other side of the is a very comfortable reading area. It was nice that I was able to have a drink and a small family could sit in the comfy room and read. The room was in the upstairs area you can see in the picture. It had a lot of character and was very comfortable and large. Two beds. Tea, coffee, and a delicious chocolate chip buscuit and ginger cookie. The biggest reason to stay here is that man can cook! Dinner was fantastic and breakfast was as well. Best meals I had on the trip and dinner was extremely reasonable! You are maybe 20 minutes from Beauly and under 30 from Edinburgh. Stay here for a great location, save a lot of money over noisy Edinburgh, and have fantastic food!

Hotel situated in a stunning location. Anyone looking to relax can certainly make themselves at home. Relaxed atmosphere and comfortable bed. No tv however they are trying to promote an atmosphere that does not need a tv. Not that there's much on it anyway. Also with free, fast wi-fi you can still use your phone/tablet if you need to watch something etc. Meals very nice, Steak was tasty and Haddock was in a Golden beer batter and was lovely. Pea and mint soup was tasty and fresh bread had a really nice flavour. Lovely family run hotel that provides comfort and rest. *****

Wonderful place to stay if you are looking for a quiet place away from the crowds. Duncan is a great host & the food was excellent. It is a good base for outdoor activities such as hiking or fishing.

My parents and I had a wonderful stay at the Cnoc Hotel. Duncan was a gracious host and the food he made for dinner and breakfast was some of the best we've had on our trip. The setting was peaceful and the rooms were cozy and clean. A great find as we explored the Highlands.

The staff were very helpful and the food was excellent. The only thing preventing a 5 star rating was the lack of hot water in the shower in the morning. There is also a bar and residents lounge, for relaxing, on site.

This hotel is an experience. The building is old and charming, and very clean. The owner is helpful and friendly. The food is yummy. On our two week UK trip we stayed in six hotels - The Cnoc Hotel was our favorite.
