Mains of Taymouth Country Estate Gallops Apartments

Our third time at Mains of Taymouth this year. We have stayed in the Bell Tower, 12B Maxwells and 11 Maxwells. Each time we have had good weather, although that does not matter so much in such a peaceful place. The whole area is exceptional, with everything kept in tip-top condition. Booking is easy and staff are always on hand. The Courtyard Shop and Restaurant are right on the doorstep, along with walks in all directions. The new Crannog is just minutes away.

Beautiful location and beautiful accommodation! Second time we’ve stayed, it is the most peaceful location with lovely walks and views. Accommodation very clean. The courtyard is perfect for a cosy drink by the fire. All team members from reception, the bar and the shop were lovely and so helpful. Will 100% go back again!

Significant issues in a lodge last weekend and frankly, staff couldn't have cared less. 8 people in a lodge and within 24 hours of arrival, we lost the use of two of the three bathrooms. Shower upstairs leaking and water pouring through the electric light fittings in the bathroom underneath. Reported concerns to reception and the response was underwhelming. Maintenence resealed the shower drain which did absolutely nothing. Reported a second time, showing video footage of the water pouring through the electrics. We were met with 'thanks for letting us know, sorry about that.' Guests were at risk of electric shock or the lodge going on fire and no responsibility was taken. No alternative accommodation was offered, nor were any measures taken to ensure the safety of the lodge or its occupants. It is clear to see from the ceiling plasterboard that this is not the first time this problem has presented itself. Lodges don't have fire extinguishers, fire blankets or details of assembly points. Rotting balcony at the rear of the property can no longer be used as a fire escape route as the railing has been removed and a gate has been put across the window. Investment and maintenence is seriously lacking. Sadly Mains of Taymouth have ignored my formal compliant and think a refund of £157 is sufficient compensation. We are returning to beautiful Kenmore again but won't be back to Mains of Taymouth.

Absolutely perfect place. Clean. Varied visual pleasures. Extremely helpful and friendly staff. Excellent restaurants. Stunning views. We rented a lodge that could only be described as perfect. It was well looked after. My suggestion…… Go try it.

This was our 5th stay at Mains of Taymouth. This time we stayed at Mains Park Court. We were a family of 5 adults, 4 kids and 4 extremely well behaved dogs. The house was spacious, well equipped and went well above our requirements. The site is kept immaculate with a well stocked shop, friendly comfortable bar and restaurant. From arrival to departure everyone was very welcoming and made sure our stay was exceptional. Only small improvement would be a shaving mirror at sink of en-suite. We look forward to visit 6.

It was the highlight of our Easter staying at Mains of Taymouth. Facilities are great, houses are so well equipped - the kitchen in our holiday home had everything. I think a better check on housekeeping could be in order. Not that they do a bad job but there were a few issues that had been overlooked.
