"Being a first time visitor to the town I nearly didn 't go to Cattle Creel after looking at some of the reviews, but I thought with an excellent average rating I ought to at least try, and I am so gland I did. I like to travel the United Kingdom and as I do I keep a travel diary, here 's last night 's submission: We got back to the hotel a little before 5:00 pm were we had a quick wash and brush up before we headed out for our Friday night supper at Cattle Creel. Jeepers what a fantastic feed we had, and I nearly didn’t go, although they had a 4.5 TripAdvisor rating, a few recent reviews weren’t that good. But I am so glad I gave it a go, as the food, the staff and the atmosphere was brilliant. To start we had some sourdough bread and oil/balsamic vinegar. For the main, as it was tapas Friday we had a fish medley of monkfish cheeks, langoustines and octopus, all of which were lightly battered. We also had a hand dived scallop with slow braised beef and a delicious squash roe puree. Next up we had a fillet steak with a brandy peppercorn sauce and a portion of 36 hours braised ox cheek, with silky mash, red wine jus crispy onions, oh and I ordered a side of chips. What delicious food it was, it was an utter delight, and we were stuffed. I was so stuffed that I declined a dessert and I had an After Eight cocktail instead, it was like velvet on my tongue . Sadly I live 150 miles to the north, in Inverness, or this would be my local restaurant, the dining experience really is that good!"

"Sorry to say we were disappointed. We stayed and ate here for 2 nights in November ‘23 then again earlier this week (March ‘24) ; hoping that after the refurbishments that the hugely positive reputation and eye watering price tag were well placed conclusion? no, not really. Room lovely and comfortable but sadly only those without dogs qualify for the sea view option. Dinner: some really excellent dishes although pretty small and very expensive. A few strange misfits: smoking potatoes really doesn't work the very strong bitter flavour overpowering all else; also seasonal greens are great but another strong flavour and these were the only vegetable sides on offer, besides chips. Breakfast was very surprisingly disappointing: the only bread available was supermarket white sliced (peculiar after we had the most fabulous crusty homemade bread with dinner the previous evening). Otherwise, such an old fashioned offering (the orange juice and marmalade are excellent though). Just a couple of Kellogg's type choices of cereal. The closest thing to muesli and fresh fruit they suggested came as a soup plate full of plain granola and a second soup plate full of tinned fruit salad. hmm. Bacon thick and not crispy and eggs overcooked. Background music we felt was inappropriate with the same type piped relentlessly at all times of day: lots of early rock&roll and raucous R&B. However, the staff are all just lovely we enjoyed meeting them all and lots of other guests; and the location is fabulous. We just feel that it doesn't quite hang together yet and really wasn't value for money."
