Spotlessly clean and plenty of heat. wasn't what we expected. No communal lounge or conversation as to where to go. very strict for times. Last breakfast 9 and had to vacate room by 10. Provision in room very skimpy.

Convenient, picturesque and clean property just off the motorway with excellent staff service. Really warm welcome from check-in onwards which set the tone for the stay. All staff were very friendly and the food was delicious. Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Overall good stay but could be better.
Overall a good stay however the bar was cold, breakfast was ok, not great lighting outsde chalets...would have been nice for a bit of warmth in the chalet on a cold wet day...which would have allowed the heat to build quicker...

Hidden gem.
First time here, a half way point on our journey. Large complex as it is a wedding venue. When we arrived a wedding came out of the forge complete with a piper a lovely surprise to greet you when you arrive. All aspects were very good, the only addition we would have liked was a unit in the bathroom to place your toiletries, it was an accessible room with a wet room, the only twin room left as we made a late decision to book, a very minor point overall. Could not find fault with anything and I am hard to please. Rooms being refurbished in the near future. We shall be staying again.

Our stay at Mill Forge was an overnight stop, after travelling by motorcycle from the South of England, on the way to Aviemore. There was plenty of flat parking space for cars and bikes, and we managed to park right outside our room. The accommodation was as described on the website, with a good shower, although the TV is quite small. Our evening meal was excellent, with good sized portions, just what was required after a long day in the saddle! Breakfast was also very good, although the toasters took a while to toast the bread, so get it in early, if you want toast with you breakfast. The staff were very friendly, and provided good service. I would stay at the Mill Forge again

Lovely
Lovely surroundings, ideally placed just off the motorway, but you wouldn’t know you were close to it. Nice traditional farm style bar and restaurant. Really enjoyed our stay, the only criticism is that the wifi was not working and when reported we were told it hadn’t been for some time.

Not just for weddings!
A nice wee gem of a place. The staff are amazing. Courteous, professional but very friendly & accommodating. The room was one of several that had a door which led on to a beautiful courtyard. The surroundings were well kept & the property was in good condition. The only negative was the noise from the motorway but it didn’t really detract from the overall experience.

Would book again
Booked one night stay and as far as the room and all the staff are concerned we have no complaints. Unfortunately in the room next to ours we had a couple who were arguing at full volume at various times throughout the night/early morning. No fault at all of the hotel who couldn't apologise enough when we checked out. We also had an evening meal in the bar which was very good and a full Scottish breakfast. So 10/10 for The Mill Forge we wouldn't hesitate booking again. If you are the couple reading this review it's time to move on and call it a day... your relationship is a non starter...

Good Food and Accommodation
The room was clean, comfortable and quiet, we both had a meal in the restaurant of salmon which was good, and banoffee pie which was delicious. The next morning we had Full Scottish Breakfast with plenty of toast and coffee. The staff were very helpful and were happy to show us the Forge where we could get married, the gardens & reception rooms.

A great price for a clean & quiet (bedroom) hotel. The staff were very friendly, helpful & went out of their way to help with dietary requirements when ordering our meal. Parking was plentiful & so close to M6. Our only concern was our friends hairdryer wasn’t very strong, so she would recommend to take one if you needed it. Ours was fine

Beautiful Place for a Runaway BridePlanned wedding
Such a beautiful place. Anyone considering a small family wedding should go here. All staff very helpful from photographer to Pied Piper & last but not least the lovely make up artist hired for the day. She went over and beyond to make my daughter's wedding day very special. She even recommended someone in the town close by to fix my daughter's botched up wedding bouquet that had not been done right from our own home town.
