Kinloss Abbey. Legend has it that King David I became lost while hunting, and prayed for help. A white dove appeared and led him to safety, and in gratitude he founded the Abbey of Kinloss in 1150. Sadly, the evidence does not support the theory that the name is derived from 'king lost'!

Beautiful room and view to the sea, there’s a noticeable gap in the window but room does not feel cold or draughty. Well stocked mini fridge, teas and coffee. The spa was relaxing and quiet. Staff were very friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
