The new look Michelin Guide 2016 for Great Britain & Ireland was published last week and we are delighted to see that The Dulaig is one of very few Bed and Breakfasts listed under the guide's "Top Picks for Scotland"!
We feel highly honoured to receive this accolade as it indicates that we are on the right lines in our aim to provide all guests at our home with a very high standard of care and service.

It was a very sad day for us today as we had to say our final goodbye to our lovely cat Amber. He had reached the ripe old age of nineteen years, not a bad age for a cat who at just a couple of months old had been abandoned along with his brother, Claret, by his first owner. We were lucky to have adopted them from The Cats Protection League and really enjoyed having both of them as our pets. Amber was a wonderful puss who did not even chase birds! We will miss him very, very mu...
Gordon and I had a wonderful time on 12 May 2015 at the AA Bed and Breakfast Awards 2015. Here we are (centre) pictured with AA's Giovanna Grossi and the CEO of Eviivo, receiving our Certificate as The Dulaig was a Finalist in the "Friendliest B&B of the Year" for Britain and Ireland. We also received this lovely engraved decanter and we feel honoured to have been nominated by the AA Hotel Inspector.
We are delighted to let the news out....we are Finalists in the AA Bed and Breakfast Award for the Friendliest B&B of the Year 2015! The Award takes in AA B&Bs from Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland.

Gordon and I had a spectactular walk on Ben Rinnes on Easter Sunday. This mountain, 841 metres high, dominates the Moray skyline. It is about half an hour's drive from The Dulaig and as you can see the views from the top are wonderful.
You can see an album of photos from our walk on our Facebook page at www.Facebook.com/thedulaigbandb.We are more than happy to provide suggestions for walks, maps and guidance to our guests who wish to walk whether on Ben Rinnes or anywhere e...
It has been our absolute pleasure to share our home, garden, love of Scotland and of food, with guests over the past 14 years. The experience of running our B&B exceeded our wildest dreams however we - Carol, Gordon (& The Cake Fairy) - have hung up our aprons for the last time.
Thank you to the wonderful guests from all over the world who have stayed with us. You have given us so many special memories which we will always treasure. Thank you too, everyone else who has supported us: your confidence in us was appreciated more than words can say.
Warmest Wishes to All, Carol, Gordon..and The Cake Fairy x
