Lovely big room, fantastic view, crisp clean linen on a big comfortable bed. The smoked haddock and egg breakfast was delicious (with fresh scotch pancakes too). If only I had time, I would have loved to soak in the enormous bath, but the spacious shower was a good second best. Friendly hosts too. I agree, one of the best.

We had booked a 1 night stay in Culgower House on 10th May as a stopover on a cycling tour of North West highlands. Up until then we had stayed in a number of lovely B&B's but this blew them all out of the water. The house is a lovely old stone built farmhouse which has been very tastefully restored... More

My wife took me here this week (April 2012) for a surprise 4 night stay. John and Catriona are superb hosts, attentive yet unobtrusive, obliging and charming. Their breakfasts are of a very high quality, the house done out in soothing tones and our bedroom a very relaxing place with a very nice ensuite. We also ate there one evening... More

We stayed here for two nights in September 2011 and can honestly say it is one of the best B&Bs we've ever stayed in. We are seasoned travellers and really fussy about cleaniness and general appearance. It was spotlessly clean and the rooms are beautifully presented with very comfortable beds. Small things like fresh milk in a flask to make... More

We booked 1 night at Culgower House purely as a stopover point after arriving on the evening ferry from Orkney and wanting to get a few kilometers under our belt to reduce the long drive to Aberdeen the next day. We were therefore extremely pleasantly surprised at what a superb property this turned out to be. It was very easy... More

Yes... that's correct words fail us to adequately describe just how good this place is. Every possible detail is absolutely first rate. Wonderfully welcoming proprietors who's attention to detail is simply the best we have ever experienced at home or abroad. Excellent... location, period ambiance, cleanliness, rooms, food, beds and value for money. We would rate Culgower House as the... More

A warm welcome in this beautifully restored Victorian house, sitting by the sea in lovely countryside. The subdued decor is conducive to relaxation, and after an excellent light evening meal we slept like logs in the very comfortable bedroom. Breakfast was a very substantial affair cooked to order, and but for the fact that were booked on the Orkney ferry... More

A beautiful house and setting, magnificent room, sincere and homely welcome with tea and home made shortbread. The comfiest bed we have ever slept in and breakfasts to die for. If you think this review is a little over the top, then you have to stay here to know that we can't say enough good things about it. Very possibly... More
