“Fantastic for lunch”
Visited for lunch on Easter Sunday and both the service and the food were first class. Lovely building set in an amazing location, right next to the fantastic Strathspey steam train station (and location of Traitors tv series for fans). Staff are a credit hotel and made our visit really memorable.

It was March and there was a Christmas decoration on the veranda which was an indication of how poor the ro… more
