Manor House Hotel

Unpretentious comfortable and clean family run hotel in Scotland’s most northern town. Warm welcome and a surprisingly delicious dinner: Chef Bishnu (from Nepal by way of Edinburgh and other places) can really cook! We were in the accessible room on the front of the hotel, a handsome Victorian period detached house, which has a lovely plaster ceiling and was probably the original drawing room of the house. Plenty of room, a good comfortable Kingsize bed and a proper accessible wetroom. Access into the hotel is easy: no steps! Dinner was from the Specials board: haggis “bon bons” hand made from good artisanal haggis, with a nice sauce, and really fresh haddock and hand cut skin on chips for my husband, in a light batter; not greasy! The haddock was landed at Scrabster, Thurso’s port. So less than 3 food miles from boat to plate. My chicken curry turned out to be a beautiful aromatic (cardamom, fenugreek ) but not spicy Nepalese “curry”: obviously made from scratch. Other options included venison with vegetables and a haggis burger: and the main menu featured local steak and other options. The curry could also be had as a vegetable version. Everything we ate was meticulously cooked to be just right, Breakfast the following morning was a full Scottish if you wanted; again beautiful quality local ingredients cooked to order. The following evening we ate in again: there was a large party for a 50th birthday in the back room so the hotel was noisy and very busy. But dinner was again meticulously prepared and cooked. We had scallops starter £8 gave us 3 locally fished scallops, one large and 2 slightly smaller; cooked to be just “done”. We followed with the seafood pasta which was outstanding: copious pieces of lobster, prawn, mussel and squid in a lovely light jus, on beautifully judged spaghetti, plus garlic bread. A sticky toffee pud followed; datey, walnutty and light with a well judged toffee sauce: but I was defeated! I seriously recommend this place!
