We stayed for two days in mid November in a twin room with en suite. The hotel is a stones throw from the centre of Forres and has ample parking spaces.The room was comfortable, well appointed and spotless. Breakfast was awe-inspiring. Barbara is a great host!

Our daughter stayed here in the summer and recommended Morven as great place for our own stay (see Bec's review). Everything was just right, very comfortable bed, well-equipped room and excellent facilities. Great breakfast with a wide choice. Barbara and all her family made us very welcome and made us feel really at home. Thanks again Barbara! Jill and David.

We were made most welcome when we arrived tired and damp on a cycling holiday. Room was lovely and extremely clean. Breakfast, which was extremely good, was served in a lovely dining room. Good value for money.
