It has not always been the case that you could find good class comfort in the smaller towns of the United Kingdom, but finding myself stuck at nightfall between Aberdeen and John o'Groats this hostelry in Brora was a revelation. Attractively positioned on a headland above the small harbour, close to the railway station, the Royal Marine and Links offered excellent cuisine and good accommodation. At a price of course, rather above the usual B&B in these parts. Nevertheless I rated it as value for money and would gladly return if I ever find myself in these parts again.
