Glen Clova Hotel and lodges are set at the far end of the B955. This is a ring road, and the local rule is to drive the high road (the one on the left) on the way to hotel and the low road on departure from the hotel. Both are equidistance to the hotel. This road is mostly wide enough for two cars to pass slowly and does offer passing places also. It is an easy road to drive, but not at speed. It is a country road, so look out for wildlife crossing, take your time, and enjoy the magnificent views.
