BOB'S HIGHLAND HOME



Bob's purchase of this house even made the BBC Radio 4 midnight news last night, complete with tales of its £3,000 per night rental cost. But on the Scottish Accommodation Index website, things sound more modest:

"Aultmore is a renovated Edwardian mansion in 25 acres of grounds and is
graded 5 star by STB. All of the bedrooms are individually decorated and en suite.

Rooms with tea, coffee, hot chocolate, fruit teas. Still and sparkling mineral water and a selection of magazines. Selection of toiletries bathrobes and slippers Prices from £42.50 person/night.

Aultmore House Nethy Bridge Inverness-shire PH25 3ED"

We had reservations to stay at Aultmore House the weekend of June 2-3, 2006, at a rate of 115 pounds for the best room, the McKay room. When we arrived, after an all day drive, the proprietress told us we couldn't stay there because she had just sold the property and the American purchaser wanted it inventoried that weekend. Since it was a Saturday night and all the better lodging was all booked up, needless to say we were upset. Now we know who to blame--Bob Dylan. A shame he couldn't have allowed Aultmore House to honor its last few B&B reservations rather than turn guests away at the door.
