    Charming stay with excellent traditional cuisine

    We had a wonderful time during our one-night stay. The hotel boasts a cozy atmosphere filled with old-world charm, complemented by delicious meals featuring locally sourced ingredients. I particularly enjoyed the hearty Highland breakfast, which was a highlight of our experience. road noise from outside disrupted our sleep a bit.

    great value
    delicious prawns

    It was just a balanced option for a transient visit in Backies with great value for money. The locally fished prawns cooked in garlic butter were a delightful surprise. Be sure to ask about gluten-free meal options.

    We had a lovely stay! Our room was clean and comfortable, with a big bed that ensured a good night's sleep. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The food was delicious. especially enjoyed the full breakfast – everything was fresh and well-cooked. The atmosphere had a charming traditional vibe that we really appreciated.

    Noisy from road traffic.

    beautiful beach
    family-friendly location
    swimming pool
    limited menu

    The location is perfect for families, with beautiful beaches just a short drive away. Plus, the teens loved that there was a pool to relax after our day at the castle, a real hit!

    My kids wished the menu had more options for picky eaters.

    pleasant dining experience
    friendly service
    noisy environment

    good potential but needs improvements

    The restaurant had welcoming service and a cozy atmosphere, making meals enjoyable. The staff were polite and attentive, which helped ease some discomfort during the stay. I appreciated the location's accessibility to local attractions, offering great opportunities for exploring.

    The room's proximity to a busy road made for a very noisy night.

    I had a fantastic time at this historic inn! The big bed was super comfy, and the impressive bathroom made my stay feel luxe. Breakfast was quite good, and even though the staff was busy, they were friendly and welcoming when I checked in, making it a memorable visit.

    Comfortable communal areas, clean modern bathrooms, convenient location near Dunrobin Castle

    Outdated decor!!! Noise from road traffic can be quite distracting, need better soundproofing!!! Check-in process could be more organized to enhance guest experience!!!

    comfortable beds
    generous portions
    highland charm
    poor soundproofing

    The room offered a classic touch that echoed Highland charm, with clean and comfortable bed linen contributing to a decent stay. Breakfast featured local produce with generous portion sizes, a nice touch for those with an appetite.

    The lack of soundproofing was notable, with street noise intruding during the night, which might disrupt light sleepers. Heating in the room left much to be desired, with only an old electric heater providing warmth during chilly nights. the hotel's online information regarding amenities felt misleading, as promised features like strong Wi-Fi were inconsistent and sometimes unavailable in the rooms, which limited connectivity during my stay.
