Our stay was absolutely perfect! The room was beautifully decorated, the house stunning, everything was immaculately clean. Breakfasts were fresh, very tasty,and beautifully plated. Karen’s attention to detail was evident in every aspect. She was incredibly helpful before and during our stay. She even emailed a few weeks ahead of our stay with the suggestion to book our dinner reservations ahead of time and sent a list of good suggestions. Glad we did! Can’t say enough good things about our stay!

There is no way that you could give less than 5 stars for this accommodation.

The room was phenomenal, the area perfect to stay when visiting the Cairngorm National park, the hosts (Karen and her husband) were very kind and are offering a great service. Delicious, home-cooked breakfast by Karen and everything was very, very clean!

It’s not a bargain, but it’s worth every penny! I would always stay here again.

Thanks for having us!

During our three-night stay at Mount Barker, we enjoyed our spacious guest room at the lovely B&B. The standout feature was the large, bright bathroom with a freestanding bathtub. ||||Additionally, there is a living room available for B&B guests, equipped with a couch, fireplace, and dining table. The host, Karen, is very dedicated and serves a variety of breakfast dishes in the living room, which guests can pre-order the night before. The location is both quiet and central. The only minor issue was that the bed was a bit too soft for our liking. ||||Gook to know: Guests are asked to remove their shoes when entering and provided with Crocs to wear inside.

Mount Barker B&B proved to be an excellent place to stay in the Spey Valley. Our room was large, clean, comfortable, and appointed with everything we needed. The location in Grantown-on-Spey turned out to be central to what we wanted to see, which included a couple of distilleries, scenic trails and Balmoral.

Best of all, our hostess Karen was so kind and helpful. She gave us great advice on restaurants and sights. She even booked us in to a couple of restaurants, and I have no doubt her local connections really helped. She also cooked us great breakfasts each day, including our choice of fruit, yoghurt and cooked items like eggs, bacon, toast.

We loved our stay here; highly recommended.

Karen and Alyx were great. Very welcoming and they made sure we had everything we needed, including a great dinner reservation down the street.|The Mt Barker bed and breakfast is in the lovely town of Grantown-on-Spey. The town is accessible and walkable, altho we had a car. The home is lovely and well cared for. There are two rooms available and they are superbly decorated as is the house. Karen is a detail gal and it is evident in her furnishings. The bed was very comfortable, we slept very well, the bed linens of high quality and SO comfortable as were the pillows! The towels were thick and I wished I had them at home! The bedroom was large and the details were perfect, coffee and a biscuit for the morning, a small fridge for my milk, slippers for our entry into the home, robes in the armoire, a mat for the suitcases. The sitting area had interesting books and history of the area. |As you can imagine, the breakfasts were exceptional. Filling and delicious! We felt we were in a home rather than a bed and breakfast|I would highly recommend the Mt Barker! You will enjoy your stay, feeling pampered but not overwhelmed by hour warm and welcoming hosts.

Just spent four nights at the Mount Barker Inn. It was fantastic. We have stayed at many B and Bs over the years and this one is one of the very, very best. It is well located in a quiet residential area two blocks off the main street. Grocery shopping, restaurants, and small local shops are within walking distance. They have plenty of on-site parking for your vehicle. Many great things to do north and south of the town. Our room was perfect, the best we had on this 3.5 week tour of Scotland and England. Large room, great view of the ground, nice king bed for a tall couple, a huge bathroom including a walk-in shower and claw-foot tub. Mini refrig was handy. Decor was excellent. Breakfasts were a joy. The full breakfast was cooked to order. Love those eggs! And the French toast was prepared just right. The host and hostess will take great care of you. Stay here and you will not be disappointed.

My Husband and I stayed at Mount Barker for our elopement in Scotland and had the most amazing experience. From start to finish Karen and Alick were wonderful hosts. They have a beautiful home and even offered us welcome drinks when we arrived. Karen's breakfast is delicious and they were so helpful with recommendations before and during our stay. My husband and I didn't have any guests at our wedding and having Karen and Alick there felt like family. Karen steamed my dress in the morning and let us borrow a few things for our elopement picnic. They allowed our photographer and videographers to come to the house early and take photos inside and outside. They even offered them tea and were so welcoming. Alick also connected us with the local newspaper and mailed us copies of our elopement article so we have a special keepsake from our big day. We had the best stay at Mount Barker and the most memorable Wedding. Thank you Karen and Alick for everything.
