    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. 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.

    This is an excellent place to stay in Tain. Very convenient for the railway station and the town centre. Good places to eat nearby - especially Platform 1864 and the St Duthus Hotel which are both within a 10 minute walk. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great - everything offered was tasty and good quality. The facilities in the room were wonderful (especially the shower room and the smart TV) - much better than many hotels we've been stayed in.

    The hotel itself is utterly charming! Superbly located and quiet. I have read reviews that say it’s dated - it is a little bit but that merely adds to its charm! My double room was super clean, comfortable and well equipped! The food was lovely. However the most outstanding thing about this great hotel is the family who run it! Honestly the welcome is home from home. Nothing is too much trouble. Genuinely the Royal Hotel is worth the stay and we will be back often!

    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.

    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.

    Our host Dennis was warm and welcoming, and provided us with a delicious hot breakfast each morning. Our room was spacious, and we enjoyed afternoon tea and evening whiskey in the easy chairs set by the large bay window overlooking the water. I would certainly recommend the Shandwick House to visitors to Tain looking for a quiet and restful room.

    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.

    We were transferred.to the Morangie Hotel as the Mansfield had heating problems. The Morangie was as I remembered it from past years visiting with my parents (too many years ago to own up to!).The staff were awesome nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was lovely a real treat.

    Very peaceful at the edge of a new development. A very large parking area with trees, shrubs, and outdoor seating. The hotel was well signposted just off the Tain by-pass. The evening meal was very good -- we are elderly and had to ask for smaller portions on our second night.
