Had 3 days at a conference here recently. Gorgeous views, nice big rooms, and (mostly) very helpful and pleasant staff. Swimming pool was lovely.

We have had many holidays at MacDonald hotels and have always had a good time. However, Mr Seal ( Manager ) and his staff gave a tremendous holiday, with excellent food, accommodation and leisure facilities. All staff were helpful and pleasant at all times, and we will certainly return. Good area for walkers and bikers.

Thanks to all staff.

Wife and I stayed for three nights from 8th Jan. and wish we could have stayed for longer.
This must be one of the best hotels in Scotland, and not just because it is set within an area of so much natural beauty, with many breathtaking views all within easy reach. For me what makes this hotel one of the best are the staff, food and facilities.
We booked a promotional deal offered by MacDonalds and had an executive room on the ground floor which was large, well furnished and very clean.
Next to reception there are two comfortable seating areas with the lounge bar and, due to the time of year, a burning log fire.
The restaurant adjacent to this area gives a feeling that you are being well catered for due to its furnishing, seating arrangement and views, and the quality and presentation of the food on offer is of the highest standard.
It was great to return after a day out enjoying what the area has to offer and relax in the pool area before heading into the restaurante for some of the best food I've ever tasted.
The bed is one of the most comfortable I've slept in and the remoteness of the area means a good nights sleep is guaranteed.
Breakfast is as would be expected, with continental and cooked available, and this is also of a high standard.
As I said, its not just the location, facilities and food that make this a hotel I will definately be returning to, the staff also have a big part to play, and all those working whilst we were there, domestic, reception, liesure, restaurante and bar, could not have made us feel more welcome or our stay more enjoyable.
If any of the management happen to read this they are a credit to your hotel and organisation. And a special mention goes out to Betsy in the restaurante who, despite suffering from an extremely sore throat, had time for all the guests she came into contact with and the cleaning staff who were always smiling and chatty and full of knowledge abut the local area.
Cannot comment on the lodges other than to say they looked spacious and well furnished.
I would certainly recommend that if visiting this area of the country, the Forest Hills is the place to stay...We'll certainly be back.

Our family has been staying at the Mcdonalds Forest Hills Resort every new year for the past 6 years in one of the resort lodges. During our stay this year the complex suffered a power failure due to the severe weather this has happened during previous visits but this year the electricity supply was off for approx 40 hours in total, during this time the General manager and his staff went out of their way to make sure that the guests that were staying were as comfortable as possible, from providing tea and coffee to making sure that the lovely log fires were kept stocked with logs they could not have more helpful and attentive in anyway. Special praise i feel must go to the general manager himself, a duty manager Keith and 2 ladies who were on reception duty called Nikki and Caroline, they were at all times a credit to their company.
