Ardtorna

Great scenery,lovely facilities. Propriatress a bit hovering and bossy for the price. Do not stay if you have scent sensitivities.

A stunning location with luxury accommodation and superb service made for the most memorable of stays at Ardcreran. The food was divine too! All the reviews that mention Karen are on the mark - she is incredibly helpful and always available to assist. She helped make it a very special weekend away for a birthday treat. Already looking forward to a return visit.

We accidentally tripped over this amazing hidden gem. Karen has created a beautiful luxury experience that provides the warmth of a B&B with the utmost class of any fine establishment. Views from the bedrooms that look out directly onto the loch are something to behold. Cannot recommend highly enough.

My husband and I stayed at Ardtorna for one night on our visit to Scotland. The property was very clean and had lots of high end touches and finishes. To me, the bed was very comfortable, but may be too soft for some. The location is great, very quiet and peaceful. We did feel a little bit like we were intruding on the property. When we checked in, we had to walk right through the kitchen where the host was cooking to get to our room and our room was directly above the kitchen. It was quite loud in the morning and evening with food preparation and we found the noise really carried. We also found the room to be quite small and stuffy - very little airflow. You couldn’t really open the window without opening the blinds, which made for a very bright morning. Overall we were fairly happy with our stay, but personally I think it was overpriced for the size of the room and us being woken up before 8am.

Das gebuchte "Executive Zimmer, Meerblick,27m2" gibt es vor Ort nicht! Hier: Superior Zimmer lt. Homepage. Sauber, leider festmontierter Duschkopf in der Badewanne (Bereitlegen einer Duschhaube wäre hilfreich gewesen). Besondere Grünteebeutel (bzw. überhaupt welche) und besondere Kekse im Zimmer habe ich bei dieser Kategorie (5Sterne) vermisst. Kontinental Frühstück, kein Käse. Für 25GBP besteht die Möglichkeit aus 12 warmen Gerichten sich durch ankreuzen am vorgefertigten Zettel (Abgabe am Vorabend), eines auszusuchen. Der "Smoked Salmon Bagel Platter" ist ein aufgeschnittener getoasteter Bagel (wenn man Pech hat wird er verbrannt serviert) mit Philadelphiakäse und einigen Streifen von geräuchertem Lachs. Die "Scottish Platter" ist ein Würstchen, Schinkenspeck(?), 2Eiern, Tomate, Hash Brown. Ob, beides in Summe 50GBP wert sind, darf jeder für sich selbst entscheiden. Wie manche Vor-Kritiker schon bemerkten, stimmt auch für mich, hier das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis nicht. Am Schlimmsten war für uns aber der Zwang, dass alle zahlenden Kunden um genau 9 Uhr am Frühstückstisch zu sitzen hatten (Kindergarten-Regeln), erst das Müsli zu essen hatten (wenn man es wollte), und dann gab es erst das bestellte warme Gericht. Schlimm war auch die aufgesetzte Freundlichkeit und die nassen oder gegelten Haare der Hausdame. Insgesamt, eher ein unsympathisches Ambiente. Schade.

Loved my stay at Ardtorna. I came to stay for work. Beautiful breakfast, quite and comfy beds! This will be my go to place when in the area - and back again tomorrow evening! I would highly recommend as the host is incredibly helpful and friendly. Views to die for too.
