Craggan Hotel

North & West Coast


On the side road to Melness, across the causeway from Tongue village, the Craggan Hotel doesn’t look much from outside, but go in and you’ll find smart, formal service and a beautifully presented menu ranging from exquisite burgers to classy game and local scallops, crab and langoustines. It also does takeaway pizzas and curries. The wine list’s not bad either.
