Chef de Partie in Highland

Built in the 1800s, Tongue Hotel is a former sporting lodge that still carries the same historic charm today.

Overlooking the beautiful sea loch of Kyle, the rugged Ben Loyal and gentle Ben Hope jutt out from the land above.

The hotel has recently reopened after an £800k refurbishment.
