The Loch Ness Inn provides 11 bedrooms, with 7 located in the main building and 4 in the attached cottage. Each room features comfortable beds, ensuite shower rooms with luxury Scottish toiletries, and flat-screen TVs. Most rooms accommodate children, with travel cots available upon request, and a ground-floor family room is wheelchair accessible.
