Victorian House HotelBest of IgoUgo

Hotel | "Victorian House"

Victorian House is a bed-and-breakfast. We booked through the Scottish Tourist Board. A Scottish breakfast is included with our stay, which is an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet, including fish prepared on request, which was way too salty. The breakfast was certainly a great value.


Check-in is at 1:30pm and check-out is at 10:30am.
