A stunning part of the world and a cottage with view to die for! Been in many self catering holidays and this was very good indeed - plenty to do in the area albeit COVID restrictions mean more cooking in than eating out - buy local from the estate and use some of the recipes they have! Cottage in good nick but a little bit of a mix of the old and the new - heating system a bit cranky and old - shower is warm and works well. Kitchen very well equipped. Would recommend and with a bit more investment in the cottage itself will be in the premier league soon!
Rose Cottage is utterly charming and the perfect retreat for a family wishing to explore Ardtornish. Secluded yet accessible it’s location next to the river is delightful. Superbly equipped & snug yet spacious it was a lovely homely base for the week.
Had a great stay at studio very clean and comfortable, Ardtornish is very peaceful, look forward to coming back.
I stayed in Keeper's cottage as an essential worker during lockdown. There was a particularly cold snap when I was there and no-one had been in the week before, which meant the cottage was a bit cold , on arrival. A bit of tweaking of the heating and firing up the wood burner soon had it cosy, though. The kitchen is well-equipped with a great cooker and all the pots and pans you could wish for. Views are great and access to the "big house" gardens meant plenty off opportunities for walks and exploring. I think it would be a fabulous place to stay in Summer when you could light the provide...more
24 of us enjoyed all that Ardtornish has to offer this weekend - as ever it was great fun and the house is the perfect venue for a large 'house party' weekend.
Just spent another wonderful week on the Ardtornish Estate. Lovely to be able to share this very special place with family this time. A friendly welcome, efficient service & well-equipped & beautifully clean house meant for a relaxed & easy stay. Our party ranged from 8 to 80 & there was plenty to entertain us all - fishing, cycling, hiking, splashing about & swimming in rivers, beach trips, a trip to Mull, wildlife spotting, fossil hunting, exploring the Estate & just enjoying the scenery & blissful quiet! Would definitely recommend buying the estate meat - we cooked a wonderful beef stew. T...more
This is a fabulous flat - it’s the third time we’ve stayed over a timespan of 15 years and we’ve loved it every time. The sheer scale of the place is wonderful and it’s a great base for outdoor activities, diving in our case, and great fun for a group stay. The drying room got very good use!
We loved the apartment and the stairs kept us fit. It felt like a home from home, eveything we needed and lovely walks and places to visit within a short drive. The apartment was spotless and the kitchen well equipped. We worked out how to control the taps to ensure we got hot showers. We will definitely come back to the Estate.The apartment is however not for someone who has any mobility issues unless the lift becomes operational.
Stayed in the Top Flat in Ardtornish House. Fascinating glimpse of how the rich must have taken their holidays in the Highlands in the big house but we were in the servants quarters which were much more homely. Nice kitchen/sitting room with all that we needed in it. Comfortable beds and spotless linen. Good size bath towels for the enormous bath and loads of hot water. A good time was had
A fabulous place for walking, sightseeing and relaxing. All the cottages are beautifully furnished with stylish decoration with some lovely original pieces. Everything you need in the kitchens to cater for your cooking needs. Every time I go it’s lovely to see new improvements. The new skylights are great. Looking forward to seeing our beautiful boathouse soon.
Cottage is warm and comfortable and set in a very peaceful location. Fantastic dog walks from the front door of the cottage. We have spotted a golden eagle, deer, migrating geese and a pine marten during the week. Guidance sheet left in cottage needs updating with respect to gift shop and local stores in Lochaline opening hours, as we thought both were available by appointment or phoning in an order respectively and both were open with COVID guidelines in place.
Our idyllic stay on the Ardtornish Estate was the the most wonderful experience, from the sea eagles' display on the hillside to pine martens feeding on our window cill. Everyone on the Estate was so friendly and welcoming, helping us to explore beautiful walks and spectacular views. Our cottage was lovely and cosy with a log burner to keep us warm as we relaxed in the evening after our exploring during the day. We will be back at the earliest opportunity and can't stop recommending this Estate to our friends and relatives. Just fabulous!!
