Benleva Hotel, Inverness

The Benleva is well hidden on an estate near Loch Ness, and appears a little nondescript from the outside, but inside it is pure gold. It is a regualr entry in GBG and is famousd for its beer festivals - it is regrettable that I am not here for the next one next month. The food is basic and good value, but I haven't stayed here so can't comment on the accommodation. The interior is a little worn and basic, but that really isn't an issue - it adds to the ambience. The staff are very welcoming indeed and highly knowledgeable, and beer is abviously important to them. Four ales and a cideron this visit. I had an exceptionally good pint of An Teallach but sadly had to move on. This pub is a must when visiting The Great Glen and I really regret that I can't come back more often.
