This place is fabulous. Clearly purpose built for an upmarket, contemporary B&B. Karen and Sean are great hosts and make you feel very welcome from the minute you first meet them. The views are just gorgeous through the panoramic full height windows that each room has. The room itself left nothing to be desired. From the luxurious bathroom through to... More

Exceeded expectations and previous reviews. Karen and Sean are the perfect hosts in this state of the art B and B. Rooms and the view are superb and breakfast outstanding. The decor really suits the building with perfect colour coordination. Nice to sit with a whisky or cream liqueur to watch the sun go down. I don't think there is... More

Ardtorna in one word - amazing. From the perfect warm welcome from Karen and Sean on arrival, the hot scones clotted cream and homemade jam provided an indulgence not to be missed. Rooms are stunning, luxury bedding, molton brown toiletries, I loved the enormous bath sheets. And to top all this off the amazing views from all the rooms, we... More

Classy rooms with lovely furniture, great view, spa bath, etc. It's a revelation having a nice view and being able to see it! Full length window and scones on arrival equals a relaxing time. Truthfully the breakfasts are a touch too experimental for me but I love a variety and something other than a full Scottish. Homemade Baileys, Nespresso, etc... More

Amazing accommodation and hosts. Sean and Karen were so welcoming and clearly very proud of what they offer.. It's no wonder, room was delightful, with all the special touches of luxury. Breakfast was a truly cosy affair, with meeting other guests and sharing our daily travel tales. Will definitely be an annual anniversary trip for us. Thank you both.

This is in a different league to many of the traditional more basic B & Bs. It is the designer appearance of the place and the views from the amazing picture windows that each room has that are particularly striking. It is though situated a long way from any eatery other than the Creaggan Inn where the food was OK... More
