comments Welcoming, relaxing and special! The chef made a perfect birthday cake for my husband and we had a semi private room for dinner which suited everyone from 81 to 28. We will be back!

comments Had a great 1 night stay at the Knockomie. We were welcomed by Johnny who showed us to our pretty room, which had a nice big bathroom including a large bath and seperate walk-in shower. Dinner was good and the service first class. Breakfast was also good, with a good selection of hot & cold foods, only complaint was my scrambled egg was a little runny. We stayed here due to the location, near to the river Findhorn, in which done some White water rafting with Ace Adventures. I would recommend this to anyone who likes to have a bit of extreme fun. Kind regards, Richard

comments We stayed for 9 days and although many of the other guests usually stayed for 2 - 3 days we found it a perfect place to see the Highlands and meet up with friends at Nethey. Everyone was very attentive yet relaxed. We would definitely book Knockomie when we next visit, hopefully next year.

comments Had a wonderful stay at the Knockomie Hotel. It has a warm and homely feel with traditional decor and beautiful fireplaces that makes your stay feel home from home. The bedrooms and facilities are of an exceptional standard, the restaurant provided a first class meal and a delicious fresh breakfast. My partner and I are planning to return at our next opportunity. Would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a romantic and value for money weekend away.

comments It's very comfortable, the staff are friendly and attentive to every need.The food is superb! A grown ups hotel set in beautiful grounds with a sommelier who has a wide knowledge of wines in his cellar and whiskies in the lounge. I always feel welcome and relaxed when I stay there.

comments Our stay at the Knockomie Hotel was fantastic, i booked the hotel for a surprise for Valentines and my girlfriend was over the moon. From arrival to check-out everything was perfect. We had champagne and flowers in the room for arrival, with chocolates and a candle (with matches supplied) my girlfriend jumped on the bed and tucked her feet under the fur throw and sipped on the champagne. The meal, which was included in the price, was first class. The service was spot on and the food delightful, the steak (which i like done blue) was just right as was the mood and lighting. After the meal we retreated to the bar, which i'm sure had over 400 bottles of whisky but i'm sure someone will correct me and tell me it was less. The barman was very knowledgeable and helped me pick a whisky that i liked and didn't feel like spitting out (just wish i could remember the name of it now). Overall i would rate my stay as 5 star, the breakfast in bed was delivered within 10 minutes of me calling and just topped off a perfect stay.
