Highland Hideaway with a Musical Twist
Nestled between Bettyhill and Tongue in the scenic Borgie River Glen, Borgie Lodge Hotel is a charming country lodge offering a peaceful retreat with Highland hospitality. Surrounded by nature, this former hunting lodge features cozy rooms with luxurious beds, super-fast broadband, and 32-inch Smart TVs—perfect for unwinding after a night of music.

Why Concert-goers love it
If you’re heading to a concert or live event in the northern Highlands, this hotel offers a quiet haven to recharge. The peaceful setting makes it ideal for post-show recovery, and while it's more remote than city-centre spots, the super-fast broadband means you can easily plan your next gig or stream music late into the night. Check-in is from 15:00, with check-out at 10:00, giving you time to enjoy a relaxed morning after a late-night show.
Who this Hotel is great for
- Groups of friends looking for a unique Highland getaway around a concert
- Solo travelers ticking off a bucket-list gig and craving solitude
- Couples turning a concert night into a romantic weekend
- Fans wanting a quieter, scenic spot to recover
- Budget-conscious music lovers who enjoy rustic charm and value
Food and Drink Options
The on-site restaurant serves up hearty Scottish fare crafted from locally sourced ingredients, including vegetables grown onsite, Caithness beef, Sutherland venison, and fresh seafood. After your concert, unwind with a dram of local whisky or gin by the log fire in the Lady Sutherland Lounge. While there's no mention of 24/7 dining, the quality and authenticity of the food make it worth planning around. Breakfast is available—perfect for a lazy morning after a late night.
Nightlife Options
While the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music, the cozy lounge with its local spirits is a great place to reflect on your concert highlights. The surrounding area is quiet, but if you're attending a gig nearby, you'll appreciate returning to a space where you can truly unwind.
What People Say
Reviewers love the peaceful atmosphere, warm hospitality, and excellent food. Guests often mention the comfortable rooms with luxurious bedding and the beautiful natural surroundings. Many highlight the lounge as a standout feature, especially for a post-show nightcap.
Areas for Improvement
The remote location means it’s not ideal if you’re looking for bustling nightlife or immediate venue access. Transport options can be limited late at night, so plan ahead if you're attending an event. Also, check-out at 10:00 may feel a bit early after a late one—but the serene setting makes up for it.
The Bottom Line
For music fans seeking a scenic, quiet stay after a Highland concert, Borgie Lodge Hotel offers cozy charm, local flavor, and starry-night serenity.
