Portskerra Vacation Packages

The history of the hotel is amazing. Could definitely use an update for the rugs and furnishings but the beautiful grounds made up for the bare rugs and outdated furnishings. The staff was friendly and helpful.

We appreciated the staff accommodating my wife’s gluten and dairy allergies. The view of the lake and mountains from the deck and restaurant is amazing! We loved the old Scottish charm of the lodge and the decorations-it feels cozy like a home. Great breakfast and dinner.

This was hands down favorite hotel that I booked for our entire trip! The room was super spacious, the bathroom had plenty of counter space, it had a nice sized shower with nice water pressure! We ate both dinner and breakfast (we opted for the additional charge for breakfast with our reservation) at their hotel restaurant and the food was great! We were really happy to see that they had pancakes on the menu. All of the staff were super friendly as well.

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.

When we arrived at the hotel no one was at reception, we had to find a member of staff in the restaurant. The room was fine, nothing exceptional, and the window did not shut properly (a theme round the hotel). There was a bath in the bathroom, but this could only be filled from the shower as there were no taps! There is no where else around to eat (which we guessed when we booked, so not a fault of the hotel), so eating in the hotel is the only option. The menu had various different options from pizza to Indian meals and traditional English meals. I ordered the fish and chips to be told ‘there was a problem with the fryer’ so this was not available. We were sat by a window which had a draft blowing through it. My wife asked a member of staff to close the window, he said he didn’t know how to so would get someone else to do so, no one came to look at the window. The food was OK, nothing amazing. Again breakfast was OK but nothing special. We were asked to book a time when we arrived at the hotel, there was no reason for this. Overall, there is generally nothing wrong with the property (apart from the windows) and the staff were all pleasant, but there is nothing special and the hotel as well the meals are overpriced for what you get.
