Likes : Good value accommodation. Good location for cycling/walking plus easy access to Buckie and Fochabers. Large free carpark, friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Ability to store e-bikes inside, safely overnight. Dislikes : Hotel needs a lot of TLC much of which is relatively minor but continues unattended to, for years - eg general room decoration, very noisy door closers (hard to close then they slam), light bulb missing in en-suite, heavily overgrown trees at rear of property that rob rooms of light plus TV that had limited reception/untidy extension cables. Would like the hotel to offer smaller evening bar meals for smaller appetites. Also, outside the control of the hotel is the excessive speed and noise of traffic on the A98. Overall, a very charming, comfortable, enjoyable and easy going place to stay that doesn't need a major refurbishment (which would inevitably mean substantial increases in prices to pay for the investment) just some basic attention to maintenance details to lift it to a better standard.

The room we were assigned on looked so run down with molds on the window, shower walls and shower head. The carpet have stains. The room and hallways have a funky smell. We didn't stay the duration of our booked stay and have to look for alternative accommodation elsewhere

Thank you Millhouse. You saved us!

This stay was an emergency booking due to the disaster that was the eight acres hotel in Elgin which is a dump. The wonderful folk of The Millhouse not only found us a room but bent over backwards to help us. Special mention to the wonderful Janette who was wonderful. Ask for room 2 as it has a great double jacuzzi!

A great wee place

After escaping the dump that I the Eight Acres in Elgin we were lucky to find this lovely wee country hotel. Janette who booked us in couldn't do enough for us and I am so grateful. Food superb, room great and we had the bonus of the best bath ever!

I was so looking forward to this stay. It looked unique in the pictures. BUT. It was tired and needed some attention for sure. The shower had mold in it and there is no excuse for that. An easy fix to replace. Just not up to the expectations it looks like.

I did a last minute booking, and it was a good choice. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious. The bed was softer than I am used to, but I slept well. The shower took a couple of minutes to get hot, but once it did, it was nice. I had supper there, and it was very good, as was the made-to-order breakfast. There is a nice lounge area to sit and have a drink. Spey Beach was a short drive away, and was a nice “pebble” beach walk.

The food was delicious. The chef deserves much praise. However, the property appeared somewhat worn and could benefit from some care and attention in the common areas; the bar chairs look dated, and the carpets could be upgraded. The staff was wonderful.
