Lovely place but a bit tired in places. Room was warm and dry and it's handy for the NC500 route and the distillery, supermarkets available here too.

This would actually be a review of the Morangie Hotel in Tain. We were informed just a few weeks before our trip that they have repairs that needed to be done in the Mansfield hotel and that they transferred us to another hotel without an offer of a refund. The Morangie Hotel was a nice looking manor and had lovely stag head and Jacobite sword memerobilia. However shrouded in tacky halloween decorations and buckets laid about to catch leaks around the hotel. It wasn’t the stay we were expecting.

Poor experience: Transferred us to an old house

Despite being asked for a refund, they still transferred us to the "Morangie Hotel Tain" which is nothing more than an old house. That "hotel" had such a strong smell of carpet clue or some other cleaning chemicals that it triggered an asthma attack and we needed to leave urgently. We were unable to stay at that hotel and had to travel all the way to Dornoch at 11:00pm in order to stay at another hotel so we had to pay for another hotel. We need a refund for our stay and until we receive one, this review will remain here and other sites. I wish the castle had handled the situation better, but they did not.

Friendly staff, disappointed with overall feel

Clean and friendly customer service. Unfortunately, the place was not as expected and for us, it felt incredibly dated and old fashioned, and whilst we understand the looks that is trying to be achieved, it just came across as tired and dated. The customer service was great and the staff were very friendly but just not the type of place we were expecting. The bed, equally, was very uncomfortable and we ended up booking another place for the night.
