Forres has a small but varied choice, with 14 places in total. The smaller lodges for three people make up most of it, and they tend to cluster around the same usual nightly rate. Larger cabins for six sleep a bigger group and usually cost more per night, though not always. The cheapest night found is noticeably below the usual rate, so a flexible date can save money. Ratings are consistently high, which makes the choice less about quality and more about size and features. If you want a hot tub, the options are few, so check availability early.

A couple looking for a quiet base with a fire and a garden will find it here.
Forres sits on the Moray coast, close to the Findhorn estuary and the forest edges that run towards Nairn. The lodges here suit couples, small families and dog owners who want a base for the coast and the whisky country inland. Most places sleep three or four, and a handful go up to six.
Prices usually sit at a moderate level for a Scottish break, with the cheapest nights found a little below the typical rate. A week costs the same in winter as outside it, so the time of year matters less than you might expect. Only a small share of places have a hot tub, and those cost clearly more than the rest. Log burners are more common, found in just over four places in ten, and nearly four in five places take pets. Guest ratings are high, at 9.2 out of 10, and nearly every place has a garden.
A garden is the most common feature, found at almost every place, and half have fishing nearby or on site. Log burners appear in 6 places and push the usual price a little above the general level. Hot tubs are rarer, with only 2 places, and they are the dearest of the common extras. The one place with a sea view is the most expensive of all. Barbecues and high chairs are each found in 3 places, which matters if you are travelling with young children. The single children's play area sits at one of the cheaper places.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Garden | 13 | 93% | £167 |
| Fishing | 7 | 50% | £167 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 6 | 43% | £200 |
| BBQ | 3 | 21% | £175 |
| High chair | 3 | 21% | £175 |

Places for three or four guests make up most of the choice, with 10 of the 14. They usually cost less per night, but the cost per person is higher, at about 60 for each guest. Places for five or six are fewer, with 3 in total, and they usually have three bedrooms. The nightly rate is dearer, yet split between more people it comes out noticeably cheaper per head. For a group of six, a larger lodge is therefore the better value. For a couple, the smaller places keep the total lower.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 3-4 | 10 | 1 | £167 | £56 |
| Sleeps 5-6 | 3 | 3 | £226 | £38 |
November is the cheapest month shown, and prices rise a little in December and January. February and March are the dearest, with April slightly lower. The difference between the cheapest and dearest month is modest, so you will not save a great deal by choosing one over another. Availability is wider from December onwards, with more free nights each month than in November. That gives you room to choose dates, including at short notice. Weekends usually cost more than midweek nights, so a Sunday to Thursday stay is the cheaper option.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £167 | 36% |
| December 2026 | £178 | 45% |
| January 2027 | £178 | 44% |
| February 2027 | £206 | 49% |
| March 2027 | £206 | 46% |
| April 2027 | £194 | 50% |
Several nearby towns offer other options. Nairn is the closest in feel, with 10 places and prices starting lower than in Forres. Elgin has 5 places, and Lossiemouth has the widest choice, with 31. Aberlour and Grantown on Spey suit those who want to be inland, nearer the Spey valley. Nigg has 5 places but starts at a far higher price. If Forres is full on your dates, Nairn and Lossiemouth are the easiest alternatives to check, and both have cheaper starting prices.
A little, but not by much. November is the cheapest month, while February and March cost more. A week costs the same in winter as outside it, so the saving is small.
