I had the extreme pleasure of staying at The Anderson in early May. The entire experience was utterly and completely amazing. The food was phenominal, the whisky bar (and whisky) superb, the staff courteous, friendly and inviting! I cannot say enough about the owners, especially Jim who came to my rescue when I needed technical assistance. Thank you! Fortrose will... More

We truly enjoyed our stay at The Anderson! The atmosphere inside, inclusive of fine dining (we thoroughly enjoyed dinner and breakfast), a relaxing lounge, and then a lively bar, made for a most enjoyable evening! On top of which, very comfortable and nice sleeping accommodations! We highly recommend an evening at The Anderson!

Our family recently visited Scotland and, with the advice of Mike and Aury of Secret-Scotland.com, made arrangements for a night at The Anderson. It was a special night as it was my husband's birthday. I emailed Jim and asked for dinner reservations and a surprise birthday cake. After an amazing dinner, we were served a beautiful cake! PERFECT and memorable... More

The Anderson played a huge part in a very enjoyable week in Fortose. On both nights that we ate at the Anderson the food was fantastic and the selection of beers is amazing. Everyone is very friendly making the pub feel like a home from home. My favourite was the whiskey bar and my recommendation would be to drink and... More

I recently stayed for four nights at The Anderson. I was welcomed by the owner, Jim, like a long lost friend, even though this was my first visit. Great to share some good old fashioned banter. I believe that Jim's wife, Ann, does the cooking. the hearty breakfasts are fresh and varied. My room was spotless and homely and my... More

Aah, really enjoyed this place. The food is phenomenal. A very exciting menu which, from what I can gather, changes daily. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. There seemed to be a number of regulars. Sadly this was just a fleeting visit and I did not get a chance to sample the outrageous collection of malts on display...I'll be back!

I have now had the pleasure of staying at the Anderson on more than one occassion and from the moment that you arrive this hotel delivers on both value and quality. Firstly the warm welcome from the owner makes you feel instantly at home and nothing seems to be a problem The food can be described as nothing short of... More

We went to the Anderson on a friends recommondation and what a find it was. I've never been to a pub that has knitting nights but that sort of sums up; The Anderson is different. Our room was a bit tired but, for all that, it was clean and comfortable. Breakfasts were excellent as were the evening meals served in... More

Having been in the licensed trade for 20 years I am so glad I read a notice in the window and went in. This establishment should be a model for any village pub that is going under. The formula is simple - good beer, good spirits and good food make good business. Those 3 bring in good customers. Good customers... More

Stayed here for a night with Roy my black lab, and had a first class time. Great food, staff, beers, the works. I've stayed in a lot of small hotels recently and the Anderson was head and shoulders above anything else. I can't sing it's praises highly enough. Very dog friendly and hospitable.
