We recently stayed at Ardtornish for our annual work retreat, and it genuinely exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived, Hannah and the team were incredibly accommodating and attentive. The whole experience felt completely seamless. Ardtornish itself and its grounds are beautiful. The spaces were immaculate, thoughtfully presented, and gave our group everything we needed to both work productively and relax properly. Every single guest was wowed when they walked in and left feeling very lucky to have stayed here. Thank you so much! Most definitely a trip for the book...more
Loved the location and cottage. Wildlife was amazing. Great holiday. Only two small things no room for food storage in the kitchen had to move stuff around to make room. No wardrobe in the bedroom. Ready meals were gorgeous. My father in law really enjoyed seeing the hydro with Richie. Thank you so much. Would love to come again
Beautiful location but proximity of the adjoining cottage can cause some disturbance. Staff could not doo enough for you and great to have the Coal Shed cafe on site (great food). Definitely recommend.

I stayed with a group of ten friends in The South Wing for 30th Birthday Celebrations. We had the most amazing week. The South Wing is so vast and we were lucky enough to be able to enjoy the lawn and the gardens in the sunshine. We added The Drawing Room to our booking, which was an amazing space to enjoy cocktails and canapes before we had a catered meal with a local private chef - so good. I know Ardtornish House well, but my friends couldn't believe their eyes when they arrived - absolutely blown away.

We loved the cottage and the location. It was perfect for walking. When we arrived the cottage heating was on so very welcoming as it was still early April. We struggled a little with the cooker. There were no instructions in the booklet. We were unsure if we were required to put the boost on for hot water; as it turned out we didnt but some instruction would have been useful to know when it was required. The estate shop ready meals were brilliant; we had one each evening; truely delicious.
A lovely week in this super cottage. Mixed weather but nothing unexpected. Nightly pine marten visits and frequent otter sightings, some very close. The Coal-shed cafe is a great addition to the estate and all the staff there and in the shop/office are so friendly and helpful.
We had a wonderful stay in this gorgeous cottage. Beautifully furnished, and in peaceful surroundings.
The problem with having great marketing photos is that it raises expectations and we were expecting a great country house kitchen and comfortable rooms. I would love to recommend to friends and family because of the great location but cannot as a) the first thing that greets you is a warning about the dangers of drinking or even showering in the water and we had to immediately go buy gallons of bottled water (and still came away with an infection). and b) the kitchen is simply not hygenic with a cracked sink and draining board stained with mould. I am sure the staff so their best to keep it cl...more
If you want absolute luxury then there are alternatives on the Ardtornish Estate, if you want to watch dippers, the otter, the pine martin, eagles from the garden, then Castle Cottage 2 is the accommodation for you.
