Turned up out of the blue after a long day travelling on 26th sept. Was greeted at the bar by a very friendly chap who we assume was the landlord. Room 2 was available for us and a table booked for us to join their curry night within a few minutes of our arrival. The room was warm and spotlessly clean and had everything required for our stay. Chicken bhuna was lovely and all the staff were very friendly including the landlady who was overseeing the evenings service. Bed really comfortable and a nice powerful shower to wake us up in the morning. Will definitely be back Thank you for your hospitality Steve and Sara (south wales)

Rooms definitely need TLC.A lot of areas needs painting.For £85 you would have thought a breakfast would have been included or the option to pay but by the looks breakfast wasn't available to anyone.

We've been on a bike ride around Scotland and arrived after the kitchen was closed. But Loni the Bar Maid gave us plates and forks to eat a take away and the service was spot on. The rooms were clean and very comfortable I'd highly recommend staying here. Thank you.

Didn’t know this place even existed but I was glad to find a lovely bar in Forres. Food was brilliant too and the beer was the best pint I’ve had in Forres. Will definitely be back 👍🍔🍻

We've stayed at the Carisbrooke before and had no hesitation coming back. The rooms are bright, clean and basic, but in a good way! We had dinner, drinks and a nice breakfast. The boss and his wife are really nice and very friendly. Worth noting that dogs are welcome, which will also suit us for future trips. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending the Carisbrooke!

This place was one of the worst "hotels" stayed at. To begin, they charged my card twice and didn't even apologise for that. They refunded me but I lost money in transaction fees and conversation exchanges which they provided no compensation for despite their mistake. The room had flies buzzing all over it but besides that was fine in terms of cleanliness. The shower and bath did not have hot water or decent water pressure. It was impossible to shower or bathe. There wasn't even enough water pressure to wash the suds off of your body. As well, the toilet took over an hour to fill the basin meaning two people cannot use the bathroom within an hour of each other. The restaurant was also closed for the entirety of our stay which they neglected to inform us about at the booking stage. We only found out when we got here and the nearest restaurant is about a 15-20 minute walk. As well, check out is by 10 am but the main building (reception) was closed when we tried to check out (9am) and there's no way to contact the hotel. We tried calling but nobody picked up, as well the email available isn't a valid email. This was a miserable stay and I would highly discourage anyone from staying here. I would recommend something closer to the city centre maybe the River House bnb or the Ramnee. I haven't stayed there myself but my friends who did say they had a much better experience.

I was here at a family wedding reception. The staff were absolutely fantastic, so friendly and helpful. The decor was lovely and the catering was out of this world, delicious. Definitely worth a trip for a drink meal and a game of pool. Fantastic family beer garden with something to keep the kids amused too

Went there first with a large group and family dog. Then later as a couple for lunch. This place doesn't disappoint. Dogs allowed, good variety of beers (try the raspberry beer!), good, interesting menu and the good is very good in large portions.

Like others, Cullen Skink, perfect. The best I've ever tasted too. Pets positively encouraged by the staff, who integrate and offer treats, if owners accept. Just a lovely place to drop into. A little gem.

We always have a fantastic experience at Orrin. I suffer from a food allergy and the level of care taken by staff puts me at complete ease that I’m safe in their hands. They’re also able to advise on what parts of a dish will involve my uncommon allergen and it really shows the care and dedication taken with the food they make - and the knowledge of their produce. I don’t feel the same level of reassurance elsewhere, regardless of price point. We’ve paid more locally when dining out and Orrin blows them out the water. The food is always outstanding, and even my fussy 12 year old says the food is ‘amazing’. For those 18 and up, the cocktails are also delicious. We joke in our house that our tummies are sad after leaving. We look forward to cheering our stomachs up again soon!
