      More about Cluny Bank

      Nestling in the bank of Cluny Hill, this small, family-run Victorian hotel offers award-winning food and overlooks the beautiful village of Forres, between Aberdeen and Inverness. Built in 1865 and extended in 1910, Cluny Bank is a listed building at Historic Scotland. Carefully maintained, it was a private home for many years and was only recently converted into a hotel. Today the hotel offers a unique blend of modern amenities and many of its fine original features. Forres is located on the A96, within easy reach of both the Whisky and Castle trail. As the Forres Golf Course is just around the corner, Cluny Bank is also ideally situated for golfers.

      Great food - Great Hosts - Great place to stay”

      The dinner and breakfast were fantastic. Especially the dinner- interesting menu, beautifully cooked and presented. Great service. Family that own it were an absolute delight. Lovely bed linen, towels in the bedroom and table linen in the restaurant. Absolutely lovely place to stay.
      Only minor- the Internet in the room was terrible. There was always a strange smell in the room - which smelt like damp but there was no sign of any damp. Strangely couldn't get my head round the black lace curtains - but that's only a personal dislike.

      Really lovely. Lloyd and Julia couldn't have been kinder. Lovely hotel and fantastic food.”

      Our hosts, Lloyd and Julia, were so welcoming and tended to our every wish. For example, my teenager is a picky eater and Lloyd cooked her something special off menu even though he was really busy. All the little details were there and made our stay feel special e.g. lovely linen tablecloths and napkins for breakfast and dinner, generous toiletries in the bathroom, sumptuous white towels etc. Lloyd is a wonderful chef. We will definitely go back!
