Staying at the Cromarty, with its breathtaking views of crashing waves right from my balcony, was an unforgettable experience. The rooms are truly spectacular, though not exactly as pictured. The service was top-notch with kind gestures like returning lost items without charge. The remote and picturesque location made it a standout choice despite limited winter hours. Dining offered a lovely variety of meals and a delightful 5-course dinner, yet there were some slow service issues. Overall, a unique stay with a few minor drawbacks.
