Dining: Traditional Scottish cuisine
“The Carisbrooke strikes me as a practical choice outside Forres; its quiet location and free parking appeal, and it's clearly dog-friendly, which is a real plus. While some might find the rooms a touch dated and the absence of on-site breakfast a slight drawback, the comfortable beds and friendly staff are consistent positives. Ultimately, it seems a reasonable, unpretentious base for exploring the area.”
