When visiting Bettyhill for two weeks in 2005 we found that there was two places that we kept visiting, one was the beach because of the beautiful views and the other was this lovely restaurant. We enjoyed the haggis supper which to the day it has been the best haggis supper that I have ever had! The staff are very friendly, the building is beautiful.
