Nestling in the bank of Cluny Hill, this small, family-run Victorian mansion 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 Bed and Breakfast. Today the hotel offers a unique blend of modern amenities and many of its fine original features. Cluny Bank offers a fine selection of 52 local whiskys in our bar - from Speyside, the Highlands, the Islands and Islay. Forres is located on the A96, within easy reach of both the Whiskey and Castle trail. As the Forres Golf Course is just around the corner, Cluny Bank is also ideally located for golfers.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.
