Reviews...

Whenever we are up here, there’s only one hotel that we stay in! Murray, and his team, always make every guest feel so at home. The rooms are cosy, hotel well situated, by the river, and the restaurant and bar are fab. Excellent food and a great selection of drinks. Even with the covid restrictions, our stay was still lovely and we will definitely be back!

Showcasing Scotland's best produce

This event has been running for many years here at Mackays. The idea behind it is that we collaborate with some of our very best local farmers, sourcing their award-winning meat and putting it together into a delicious dish for our guests. We are proud to support Scottish farmers, serving up meat and produce in our champions’ dinner is not only award-winning but locally sourced.
