Borgie Lodge Hotel, hotel in Tongue

Borgie Lodge Hotel offers a Highland setting located between Bettyhill and Tongue within the Borgie River Glen. This hotel is set within its own gardens.

The welcome. The staff were very enthusiastic about what they offer. The traditional-style decor. I figure it was a hunting lodge in the past, and it retains that feel with wood burning stoves and sumptuous furniture.

    Tongue is set in one of the most beautiful landscapes in Scotland. There are lovely views of Ben Loyal and of the sandbars of the Kyle of Tongue. There's a great 40 minute walk up to Castle Varrich which has fabulous views.

    Having driven by car west coast section of Route 500 in a day, was beautiful but tiring , to stay over in Tongue(hotel) is a perfect base to complete north coast via Thurso and John o Groats and East coast sections. Then on home journey, followed middle section road A836 to Lairg and beyond. Hotel in Tongue offers easy access to all routes (North coast, East and South )and with good road conditions in summer. Petrol and small store available. Tranquil scenic area with lots of good walks. Families with young as well as teenage families enjoy the area Popular with cyclists and bikers

    Make sure you do the walk from the main road, down to the river, cross it and climb to Varrich Castle ruins. Good exercise after a day in the car and the most wonderful views. Dinner and breakfast at the Ben Loyal was really good. The locals in the bar were so friendly. Many thanks to Fergus and Findlay!

    If your planning to drive the Scotland 500 I would make a quick stop in Tongue to climb the hill to the castle. It's a relatively short walk up a track next to the Ben Loyal Hotel. All depending on how long your drive has been during the day you could overnight here. I would continue on to Thurso if you have the time.

    If your looking for scenery or photography opportunities this place is amazing. The road into Tongue is a little harrowing but of course that is no fault of the hotel. A lovely little village to visit

    We loved staying here. The staff was exceptional, always very welcoming and helpful and our room was adorable. We had dinner at their restaurant that night and the food was exceptionally delightful. The hotel, while obviously still an older building with its quirks, felt more high end than we expected. There was even a complimentary tasting left in our room for us to guess and that was fun.

    We loved everything about this hotel! From the absolutely stunning location, conveniently located for some great hikes, to the above and beyond friendliness of the staff (special shoutout to Mike!), to cozy and atmospheric rooms, incl. great bathrooms and a little welcome sherry. We stayed at 5 different properties in various parts of the Highlands and this was our favorite and a true gem.

    Room was so comfy and charming - really loved the complimentary sherry and tartan throw. The restaurant served great food, and the front desk/ service staff in dining room were all so warm and friendly. The hotel is also well situated, stones throw from Castle Varrich footpath.

    This hotel just reopened under new management and we had the privilege of being some of their first guests. A lot of effort has gone into remodel and updates. Even the locals were excited about and supportive of the 'new' Tongue Hotel. Great job!
