This should be a glowing review, the hotel is lovely and the food delicious. However despite several emails and a telephone call, they did not take coeliac disease seriously; on departure they seemed to consider it something of a "fad".

The food was delicious and we booked Kinnaird on the basis that we have never before gone wrong with good quality estalishments which put emphasis on service - they understand - Kinnaird unfortunately does not. It is most likely that the chef was let down by other staff, and if so that is a great pity. They had not one but two slip ups. A special occasion was spent in the toilet, it took a week to properly recover. The estate puts such a emphasis in its marketing on service, but our experience, when it really really mattered, shows this to be of no substance, nothing but pretence.

We did not mind the fact that the wine tasting had to be cancelled, the massage we ordered forgotten about, not even that we had no hot water for over 2 hours between 5 and 7pm on Saturday night. Not to take coeliac disease seriously however does matter and therefore this hotel, sadly, cannot be recommended.

What a lovely country house! We stayed for 2 nights end of April, the grounds are lovely with lovely walks, although it was raining we were able to go for a long walk, then relex in front of the log fire with coffee in the afternoon. The food was very good and the breakfast was cooked to order and plenty of choice. The room was good size as was the bathroom. If you want a nice small hotel with excellent service, good food and lovely staff, I recommend the KInnaird Hotel.

My colleagues offered me vouchers from Relais et Chateaux when I was made chevalier de l'ordre du mérite. With my partner, we decided to visit Scotland and if possible to find a nice and warm place to end our stay there. We booked easily at Kinnaird and we did not regret it.
It's a wonderful place, more a home than a hotel, where the staff is very caring.
We enjoyed the fireplace, high tea in the afternoon, whiskies before diner, a wonderful wine list, etc.
We'll be back !

We were only able to stay at Kinnard one night during our Scotish Vacation. After our stay , we all wished it could have been longer.

The rooms are very spacious and lovely - if just a little worn. We had an extra bed for our 12 year old in the room and there was plenty of space. The portable bed was very comfortable.
My 82 yr old mothers room was on the main floor and really lovely also. The main spaces are also lovely and nice to relax in. Someone will soon offer to bring you tea.

Although we were only there one night, we were allowed to book fishing for my mother and clay shooting for my son. The gillie was fabulous with my mother and the shooting instructor did a great job with our son. We enjoyed the grounds and were allowed to use the facilities after check out time.

The service is very good. You don't go anywhere without a basket of treats and some tea. They were able to press the mens suits with only about an hours notice. (it did cost $40). Dinner & lunch were good - not amazing - but good.

The only problem was at breakfast. We chose to have breakfast in our room, but it arrived cold.

Room rates are very expensive for those of us with a bad exchange rate. I recommend that you watch the website for any specials that might exist. If you are looking for a gracious, quality service country house you will find it here. We hope to go back for longer.
