Hotel was excellent value and an ideal central location for 8 golfers playing the many wonderful courses in the area. Building was characterful and handsome. Although rather faded, rooms were comfortable and good value for money. Evening dinner in hotel on evening when we arrived was a bit mixed, but hotel easy walking distance of some really excellent restaurants in Tain. Staff very friendly and cost represented excellent value both compared to luxury hotels in area and more standardised offers.

Hotel is an old building and that shows in both charm and the constant need for repair.

A great location, the receptionist Mhairi (Celtic for Mary) was frankly INCREDIBLE, breakfast was enjoyable. I was on a cycling holiday with two bikes and the hotel manager allowed me to charge and store them in the hotel, which was appreciated. If I were in charge Mhairi would be in management to sharpen up some basics, she is that good

Some things were not as they should be, check list things that could have been frustration but Mhairi responded so speedily and efficiently that any frustrations melted away

We’d pre-booked a breakfast at the Mansfield but was told due to kitchen problems we could either have a continental breakfast at the Mansfield or go to a sister hotel for a cooked breakfast,we chose the continental which was very satisfying.

We couldn’t have our evening meal at the Mansfield either,which we hadn’t pre-booked,the sister hotel was recommended again,would have been nice to have the evening meal at the Mansfield though,we’d even checked out the menu before we left home & decided what we’d order.

Dinner was exceptionally good as was continental breakfast. Compliments to the chef

Sheets too small for King bed, bed too soft No hot towel rail, did not work. Slippery shower in bath and nothing to hold onto. Very small shower head. Gardens badly need attention as does all walking surfaces. Grass needs cut Beautiful historical building needs lots of attention

Impressive historic building with magnificent hall and public rooms. Convenient location on edge of Tain - easy walking distance to a variety of restaurants. Ideally placed to drive to so many wonderful surrounding golf courses. Comfortable, clean rooms. Very friendly staff. Decor dated, but reflected in price

The building is beautiful as you come up the drive and is stunning when you step through the door , the hotel’s history was interesting . The lady at reception was very friendly , polite and helpful . The room was very comfortable. No kitchen/ cooked meals available but was told we could go to the other hotel for our evening meal. We had a lovely nights sleep . We chose to have a continental breakfast and was happy with the selection and quality.

Just a Shame the restaurant was not available for meals .

Room was big, clean & very warm. Staff were friendly & helpful. Food was very good we had 2 breakfasts which were tasty & lots of options. We also had an evening meal which was excellent & because of the time of year we got 50% of all food & drinks.

Would say the hotel overall is looking a bit tired & possibly in need of some redecoration, same with the grounds. Lights on the driveway would be good at this time of year.

What a magnificent place! The room was beyond brilliant, the bed was super comfortable. The room, bathroom... the entire property was immaculate. The staff were welcoming, friendly, going above and beyond at every interaction. We didn't get to try the breakfast as we had to get moving, but it looked marvellous. An excellent spot to go to the Glen Morangie distillery from. Highly recommended.

The long walk to the room with bags was a hike for me and my dodgy knee, but I found the ground floor shortcut on the way out. Other than that personal issue - I could have mentioned it for example, I cannot fault the property, the service, or the staff in any way.

The reception was warm and welcoming with stunning wooden panelling and a resident cat! The room was a good size and was clean and comfortable.

There was quite a rambling trek to find our room, which could have done with a few more signs pointing us in the right direction. It felt like trying to find the toilets in a wetherspoons!! Also, it would have been nice to have had a cooked breakfast option considering the cost of the room.

Hidden about 45 minutes north of Inverness, this hotel was a bit of a surprise booking on our journey, and it didn't disappoint. With a lovely feel and look to the place, and fantastic staff who took care of us. After opening the bar just for us, and saying hello to Lucky the (three legged) hotel cat, we retired to our room where we had a lovely night, followed by a hearty breakfast in the morning.

The only things I can fault is that the price for one night was a bit higher than initially anticipated, but it was a room booked last minute so I can hardly hold a grudge, and the experience once there more than made up for it with the fantastic service and grounds. Beyond that, the hotel has a sister hotel just down the road, so at this time dinner is only served at that other hotel, meaning if you haven't eaten, it'll require a fair walk or short drive.
