An old substantial Victorian house on the edge of Elgin, conveniently placed for access into the town. On the main road but set back enough to give a quiet nights sleep in an excellent bed. The only down side for us was not being able to get in until 5.30 pm

I have been coming to Elgin for work for the past 3 years and I stay at The Pines and I love coming here! The building is a beautiful old house with kitsch, plush furnishings. My favourite thing about The Pines are definitely the beds! I have stayed in most rooms and all the beds are insanely comfortable! The rooms... More

This was our second stay at the Pines but it won't be our last. A beautiful old Victorian house, sympathetically furnished and immaculate, it is my idea of comfort on a budget. The owner is friendly but not over familiar, extremely helpful and mindful of all guests needs. The rooms are very comfortable and clean with en suites complete with... More

My wife and I first stayed here in July 2005 when moving house. This trip on 13 November 2012 was business, and I opted to stay overnight at the Pines. Although ownership has changed, the high standards have not. Six very comfortable rooms, quiet & peaceful, just what is needed after 4 hour drive up the A9. My room surprisingly... More

We were met by the owner's daughter, who was lovely, friendly and helpful. Good size room, good size bed. Warm and comfortable. Bathroom clean and fresh. Our room was at the front of the house, which is situated on a very busy main road, but secondary glazing cut down the noise. Within easy walking distance of town. Breakfast was average,... More

We came to this B & B after a recent visit to Scotland. The B & B was comfortable and was very quaint and traditional and designed to look old fashioned including our room with a four poster bed. This B & B is ideally located for all areas of Elgin and is in walking distance of the centre of... More

Very nice building and very attentive host. Room was adequate and decorated in keeping with the building. Nice comfy double bed, freeview tv, wifi, nice ensuite, tea/coffee facilities. Breakfast was very good, choice of cooked or cereals etc. Nice and easy to walk into shops/town from hotel. Took maybe 10 minutes maximum but a very easy walk. Parking available.

Everything positive that needs to be said, has been stated. Excellent 5 star B&B, with a great price. We only could stay one night but that was a great night for sure. Beautiful home, great hosts and a pleasant, restfull stay.

Wow on arrival we were greeted by a stunning piece of Victorian architecture and a warm welcome from the owners. We were shown to our fabulous rooms which were exquisitely furnished and had a lovely hospitality tray. The attention to detail was lovely for example cotton wool, ear buds, shampoo/conditioner and body wash all being provided in the bathroom. The... More
