    Quiet area with several options for food and drink.

    Quiet area with several options for food and drink. Platform 1867 a fun restaurant with good food, friendly staff and lovely outside area. Plenty of shops and petrol stations. We didnt make it to the beach as travelling each day. Great base for North East and West coast. Good road and rail connections.

    I used Tain as a base for a golf holiday in the Highlands.

    I used Tain as a base for a golf holiday in the Highlands. Although I did not play Tain Golf Club which is basically next to the hotel, it was convenient for rounds at Brora, Golspie, Royal Dornoch and Fortrose & Rosemarkie, within about a 45 minute drive of all four. Tain itself is a nice village with good restaurants and shopping which I took advantage of when my clubs were not in use. Particularly enjoyed Greens Restaurant within a block of the hotel.

    When we travelled north to Thurso, then to Okney, we stopped in Tain at a very nice grocery. After Okney and northern Scotland, we had to head back to Edinburgh. Thurso was too far to drive to Edinburgh, and since we were returning from Orkney by ferry. It was too far to drive down to Inverness. But staying in Tain was just right. We arrived in Edinburgh early in the afternoon, feeling refreshed. The Springfield Guest House, Tain was just down the street from that really good grocery, that is open till 9:00pm.

    Tain's location allows ease of access to routes further North (for example to Tongue) or West across to Applecross or South to Inverness. There are lovely beaches close to Tain with good places to eat and drink in the town. It has various supermarkets including Tesco and Lidl and other shops in the town centre.

    We came up for the Book Festival.

    We came up for the Book Festival. Which was well attended and interesting. the location is beautiful and if we'd had more time would have like to go on the pilgrimage and see the pictish trail and the Glen morangie distilery Tour.

    Pretty small town with nice walks along the coast and also along the John o'Groats Trail which can be accessed from Tain. Transport links are pretty good as both trains and buses are options. Good places to eat out e.g. Platform 1864 and the St Duthus Hotel. The town museum and the old church are both worth a visit. The town is full of flowers and hanging baskets and the small rose garden in the High Street is lovely and very well maintained by a team of volunteers.

    It is in a great location that requires a short walk to get to the town centre and it isn't too far away from Tesco or the station. The room was very clean and well-maintained by the staff who made me feel welcome when I left or arrived to go into town. You will only ever see the staff from breakfast till around 1400 ish where they clean the rooms. For the rest of the time, there won't be anyone around and a WhatsApp number is provided in case you need assistance.

    Love this hotel! The staff was wonderful and everyone was very gracious during our stay. My brother and his wife loved their room and the furnishings - a step back in time. It was like a honeymoon for them. The food in the dining room was delicious especially the duck breast! My sister and I enjoyed our rooms, very comfortable. Would definitely stay there again . thank you to all the staff. We certainly enjoyed our conversations with all of you.

    Edderton Lodge is about 300' away from Balblair Distillery in the village of Edderton. Perfect if you are doing a tour and tasting and then going to the lodge to stay. Across the lane is all open fields and a Pictish column. 10 minutes away in Tain is a supermarket, the Glenmorangie Distillery, and a few restaurants. Breakfast was limited but tasted great. Dinner is available if you tell them in advance.

    We had such a great time staying at Vicki’s Den. It was very clean and has a really well stocked kitchen, a huge comfy bed and a good shower. Very quiet location (though a quick drive to Tain, a larger town with supermarkets etc.) with amazing sunsets and stars if you get a clear evening. We stayed for 4 nights and found it a great base to explore places on both the east and west coast of the Highlands!

    Right next to the main road but was quiet at night. The hotel catered for vegan breakfast (with prior warning) so that was greatly appreciated. Breakfast is delivered to the door in a basket, so no hot options. Could have done with real coffee in a cafetiere or similar as the instant in the room was, well, instant coffee! For the price, really can't fault it Also ate there in the evening

    The property has a lovely feel to it, comfortable and friendly. Great setup for families travelling with children, cot and bedding provided. The food is always served with good portions and tastes lovely, both breakfast and dinner. The rooms are a great size and very comfortable. Good heating throughout the hotel as well.

    Food was excellent as was the service. Everyone at the hotel goes above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. All meals are at communal tables. There is no private dining. Common spaces were eclectic but well done. The bedroom decor seems to be 60s / 70s design- a bit unexpected and off.
