An early Victorian house dating from 1840 and formerly known as Craigard, Rokeby was reopened in 2019 as one of three Black Sheep Hotels by Indian entrepreneur Sanjay Narang. It shares its name with the Rokeby Manor hotel at Mussoorie in the Indian state of Uttarakhand, also built in 1840 and now also owned by Mr Narang. In turn the name was inspired by Sir Walter Scott's epic 1813 poem Rokeby which is set in and around Rokeby Park in NZ0814, now in County Durham, but formerly in the North Riding of Yorkshire.

The decoration and furnishings at both Rokeby Manors are Victorian in style but the cuisine (served in Emily's Byre, the wing at the left in this view and incorporating the original stone byre of 1840) is inspired principally by that of the north Indian frontier, though a range of Scottish and international dishes is also offered. See also NH2901 : Nameplate for Rokeby Manor.

The other Black Sheep Hotels are the Cluanie Inn, further west along the A87 in NH0711 and the Whispering Pine Lodge (formerly Letterfinlay Lodge) on the A82 beside Loch Lochy in NN2491.
