Have just spent two nights at the Moorings. We received a good welcome from Jenny on arrival. Our room which overlooked the harbour was nice and spotlessly clean. There were bunk beds in the room but we still had more than enough space. Bathroom was modern and bright. We were offered a choice of four breakfasts ie full, scrambled eggs... More

A pretty basic B&B Good location by harbour and near station. Breakfast basic, no cereals. Steep stairs and no handrail to steep steps from pavement. Room cramped by third bed

My wife and I stayed here in March 2011.We had a lovely room overlooking the harbour.Breakfast was fine but no cereal.We were told we could use the lounge overlookig the harbour at night but were not allowed to fetch any food or drink in.A bit pointless sitting without even a drink

Received a warm welcome from Jenny and Martin. Given a room with a view over the harbour which was idyllic. The room was tastefully furnished with an antique half canopied bed as a centre piece. Room was quaint and quirky and had just been refurbished and the ensuite shower room was all newly done and was of a good size.... More

From the first greeting to the final goodbye, the service from Martin was friendly and pleasant. Martin and Jenny went out of their way to accommodate the special requirements for my trip, which I greatly appreciated. In short, the stay was pleasant and relaxed. The bed and breakfast is perfectly situated near the centre of this picturesque fishing and village... More

Very good greeting by Martin and Jenny on arrival and we were shown to our room which was spacious for a B&B and nicely decorated. The Moorings is fantastically located, just 2 minutes walk from the railway station and has stunning views of the harbour and surrounding countryside. What stood out from our stay though happened in the morning, after... More

Well greeted. On arrival my room was not ready, however it did not seem to bother me as I was on business trip and was not expected to be back till late at night. On return my room was spotless and upto standards. The next day I had to visit my place of work for final quality control and asked... More

Our arrival seemed to upset the owner even though we were within the check-in time but she was doing the hoovering! That set the tone for our stay. It was a Saturday evening and we were asked as soon as we got in what we wanted for breakfast and notified that it was 8-8.30am on a Sunday morning! We had... More

We ended up spending the night in Mallaig by accident as the ferry service to the Isles had been cancelled due to bad weather. Most B&B's in Mallaig were closed for the season, but Jenny at the Moorings was very accommodating. Reasonable price and nice, warm rooms. Spectacular view of the harbor from our room. Great shower en suite. Breakfast... More
