The Granary Lodge is our luxury Bed & Breakfast located near the shoreline just a few metres from The Castle of Mey.
Whether you are touring the North Highlands of Scotland or looking for accommodation for that special occasion, The Granary Lodge is the perfect spot – offering 10 individually styled bedrooms including 2 Suites, a relaxing drawing room with beautiful views over the Pentland Firth to Orkney and a warm Highland welcome.
To start the day, we provide you with a delicious freshly-cooked breakfast with gluten-free and healthy options available. Our staff will then be on hand to provide information and advice on what to see and do during your day, before rounding your day off with a wee dram from the bar while relaxing in our drawing room, enjoying the sunset. For the evening we are happy to assist in making dinner reservations at local restaurants.
