Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Forse Of Nature from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Forse Of Nature is often praised for its charming, older manor house and beautiful grounds that invite walks in nearby woodlands. Guests appreciate the spacious rooms, some with extra touches like robes and writing tables, and the convenience of a communal guest lounge with a fully equipped kitchen. The on-site cafe is a highlight, especially the full Scottish breakfast for £10 and home-baked cakes such as the Bakewell tart; some guests, however, have occasionally noted noise issues due to thin walls.

The manor home had lovely grounds. Gardens and woodlands provided great walks. the super king or twin room ensuite was spacious, complete with comfortable beds. it had many extras including dressing gowns, and extra cushions!

The heating did not work properly and it was cold. i had a terrible sleep. The room felt run down. the hallway smelled strongly of old food, or maybe mold.

the welcome felt warm. the business seemed family run with hosts living onsite. the house and grounds was gorgeous. the room had robes and toiletries provided. the guest lounge had a kitchen, convenient for evenings when nearby food options were limited. an onsite craft shop was available. bird feeders sat just outside the cafe windows.

I noticed a very faint musty odor in one of the hallways. It was minor, yet somewhat noticeable.

lovely groundscoffee loungebroken heatingundriveable driveway

the manor home has lovely grounds. the gardens are quite suitable for walks. our twin room was spacious. it contained comfortable beds. there was an en-suite bathroom. a self-contained coffee lounge is available to guests. it includes a fully equipped kitchen.

the heating was broken. we had to sleep badly. we covered our body to find something warm during the night. it was like sleeping in a fridge. the driveway is undriveable. get ready to get your bones shaken out of your body.
