ザ パインズ ゲストハウス(The Pines Guest House)

Nice room, nice reception, not bad

What a wonderful find this was. Fortunately, they had availbility as we "dropped in" for a night stay. It is in a wonderful location with private parking and easy to locate. Our room was very comfortable and the breakfast was superb. There is so much to do in this region, it is nice to have this beautiful place to relax.

My second time staying here and is now my go to place in Elgin. Always get a warm friendly welcome on arrival. Wonderful big building and gardens to match. Gated driveway up to the property. Even has a guest lounge with a roaring log fire. Fantastic. Central enough to be within walking distance of the centre of town. Bedroom is full of character and really comfy big bed. Good choice of breakfast in the morning. When I consider places like the Premier Inn that I used to stay at there is really no comparison. What a wonderful place.

One night stay - very comfortable room and breakfast was excellent. Lovely hosts - would definitely return.

We visited Elgin in order to run Dramathon and we chose The Pines Guest House for our stay. Our guests Lynne and Lee were so kind and warm and made us feel like we were at home! Sheets and towels smelled really wonderful while we had the chance to experience living in a cosy, well maintained, beautiful Victorian house. We are really looking forward to returning pretty soon!!!

Amazing hosts! Couldn’t do enough for you! The property is gorgeous. A smaller downtown abbey vibe. First time but won’t be my last

We had a wonderful time! Debbie and James went out of their way to make sure we were looked after. Breakfast was excellent too! Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day!

The moment we walked inside the Pines we knew “Everything is Good here: Everything is Right.” We spent a week there, enjoying Elgin, nearby Scottish sights, and the hospitality of the owners. The Pines had been recently acquired and renovated by the owners. It is immaculately clean and well-appointed. Guests may choose among many breakfast options. They are all excellent. The portions are generous; on our first morning there I apologized to the owners for over-ordering and eating only about half the plate. We used the Pines as a central location for day trips and touring. It was in a good location for this. If you want to go to John ‘O’Groats, Stromness, and the ****************, be prepared for a bit of a drive and perhaps an overnight stay, so we kept our travels a bit closer to Elgin. What can I say about the owners? In a word, “great.” They were the perfect hosts: friendly but not familiar. We enjoy watching Formula 1 racing. On the day of a Grand Prix, they set up a telly in the sitting room for us and ensured we had tea and snacks. It was perfect. Would we go back to the Pines? Absolutely! We consider it our home in northeast Scotland.

Excellent place to spend the night. First class service and good breakfast. Highly recommended
