Red Squirrel log cabin with hot tub, hotel in Fochabers

Boasting a hot tub, Red Squirrel log cabin with hot tub is set in Keith. This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking.

The cabin was absolutely beautiful inside and out and very homely and the host very welcoming and friendly when we saw her. We had a fantastic weekend, especially with the hottub to dip into and let life just melt away for a while, especially at night looking up at the stars. In the day we had a lovely veiw for the sheep and cows. Highly recommend and we will be back again soon xx

    I stayed there only for one night in order to be close to my visit to Glen Grant distillery and the whisky trail in the area. But the place was lovely and I could spend a couple of days more there, visiting lovely villages, beaches and castles nearby.

    Although great view of the ocean you really couldnt access the beach. Not the best due to being a stoney beach no good for children or dogs as you couldn't get down to the waters edge. Far better beach at Lossiemouth and Hopeman

    A very good base for exploring Speyside or the coast or going on the Whisky Trail. Interesting selection of small shops - Tourist and quality Scottish souvenirs - Antique shops - Fabric and haberdashery (which is now difficult to find in the city) - Cafe / ice-cream parlour - local history museum - interesting walks.

    Countryside at its best - flowing great salmon rivers, the sea, inland country walks on the moors of northern Scotland. Close to landmarks and Elgin city. Mountain bike trails just along the road. Go for it

    Nice wee town, quiet and sleepy now that it's bypassed, But it has a superb ice cream parlour. Worthy of a wee wander around and there are many nice walks from the centre, including along the Speyside Way.

    Breakfast was fine. The room was quiet and well furnished. We liked the fact we could enter and leave our room without having to walk through the pub areas. The woman who welcomed us in the pub was excellent, polite and well mannered. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal at the 'sister' hotel, The Gordon Arms, which was booked in advance by the woman who welcomed us at the Red Lion. All staff made us feel very welcome.

    Our second stay at Orton Estate Fochabers and loved it! Great cottage for a family with teenage kids who are looking for something different other than staying in a family room in a hotel. Clean, comfortable and a beautiful location. We used it as a base for visiting family in Elgin but there’s loads to do in the area. Definitely recommend and would love to come back in the winter time to use the log burner.

    I was running late to reach the Gordon Arms before they stopped serving dinner but Susan arranged for the chef to stay back to make dinner for me, what an amazing thing to do and it was greatly appreciated indeed. The food was lovely as was breakfast, the room was immaculate and the beer went down a treat after a very long day!!!! With thanks to everyone at the Gordon Arms Hotel.

    Nice rooms in a separate area upstairs at back of the 'pub' - well equipped and furnished. Good shower. Excellent breakfast. Fochabers an interesting place and good location for the Moray coast and NW Aberdeenshire

    Everything about The Red Lion Tavern exceeded my expectations. This hotel would show most luxury hotels how to “ do it right”, from polite, friendly staff to a lovely room, all at a very reasonable price.

    When we checked in Jake was very good, he explained how the hotel operated, including breakfast and also showed us to our room. Next morning Jake was breakfast and again was welcoming and efficient.

    We only had breakfast at the hotel, however, all the food we saw going out, especially Sunday lunch, looked amazing. Bar prices were very reasonable and friendly staff gave a relaxed vibe.
