Everything was wonderful!…read more My relationship with Royal Marine started months before we got there. When we were told our friends would be getting married in a castle, they found this hotel for all of us to stay at. Since I was told the hotel only had twenty rooms, I thought I should get on it. I emailed them and paid my deposit. When I received a copy of the Bride Guide's schedule of our Scottish Adventure, I had to call/email again to extend our booking. Since our group didn't book the whole hotel, there were still other patrons around... I hope we didn't bother them. When we arrived, we were shown our room. There is no elevator... luckily I had my massively heavy backpack. The large staircase was only two short flights. Our room was a nice size. There was a beautiful armoire, a desk, a sitting area... the bath had a towel warmer. So every morning we had breakfast in a very beautiful dining room with large windows streaming in light... FULL SCOTTISH PLEASE! Some mornings, some of my friends just wanted some of the cold items from the buffet: a couple different juices, cereals, fruits, a cheese plate... there might have been other things, but I'm a late sleeper and more interested in the black pudding with runny yolk eggs running into them. They also had toast, oatmeal... the bride's brother ordered all three fish delicacies. He said it was salty. I thought all the food was good. Usually, I am a toast with peanut butter kind of person... they reignited my love of frosted flakes. The staff is lovely. Really accommodating. Rob was amazing... a hero that saved the day since the wedding planner really fell short. Scott from Dunrobin Castle and Rob working in tandem made the day wonderful. Royal Marine also catered the dinner at the castle and it was lovely. All the food was good... The Beef Wellington with a layer of my summer love- haggis. So yummy. It was also my first encounter with Cranachan. Who knew cream and raspberries with oats could be so good? If you're going to be out past 10pm or 11pm, you have to let the staff know so they can give you a key to be let back in. They do have two night managers, but they could be dealing with other things and not hear you knocking. I don't know where you'd go though. Brora seemed to be a sleepy town. We stayed up late a couple of nights in the foyer rooms. One night, one of the night managers asked if I had phoned them... I thought back to when the bride got mad and called them and had words... I said no, wasn't me. They have pool, but my friend's family walked out to the North Sea instead.

We were so pleased that they were the place we landed on. They were so friendly, the food was amazing, and they didn't rush us out, even though the kitchen was closing shortly after we arrived. We were staying nearby and sad that we weren't staying there. Our group had the crab cake, king prawns, and smoked salmon starters. For entrees we had the steak, bolognese, venison, burger and steak pie. Then several had the brownie and sticky toffee pudding. I have to say that we'd been having sticky toffee pudding everywhere we've been and this was, by far, the best we've had. I didn't get pictures of the desserts because they were eaten so quickly. Don't hesitate to go here.
