From the Wikipedia article
Glenelg Inn is a public house and inn in the village of Glenelg in the Highlands of Scotland. The current building dates to the second half of the 20th century, but remnants of the previous structure — the "imposing" Glenelg Hotel (itself a rebuild), which was largely destroyed in a 1947 fire — still stand. Early lessees of the property include George Chaffey (around 1870) and Donald Macdonald Mackintosh (around 1893). Christopher Main was the owner between 1985 and 2007. It is believed that Dr. Samuel Johnson and James Boswell stayed here on their visit to the area in the 18th century. The inn was listed in the 2017 and 2018 editions of The Good Pub Guide. The rear of the property stands on an inlet of the strait of Kyle Rhea.
