Why we've chosen Moorfield House
In the village of Boat of Garten, near the famous ospreys at Loch Garten and capercaillie in the nearby Abernethy forest, this charming Victorian guesthouse does what many others do – with tartan, richly coloured walls, dark wood panels, period features – plus a little extra verve. Breakfast haggis from the butcher’s round the corner. Speyside whiskies by the open fire. Hand-crafted tapestries on the walls, yet all the modern amenities you’d expect in the six en-suite rooms: flat-screen satellite TVs, welcome trays, comfy beds. The owners, Gillian and Harvey, are on hand to ensure you know the best places to visit, eat and drink in the area.
