Location is good.
Plenty of parking in front of the hotel
Staff were very friendly, accommodating and helpful
The room was very comfortable and clean.
Breakfast had plenty of choices.
Located beside the picturesque Loch Maree, this hotel was built in 1872 and once hosted Queen Victoria as a guest.

Staff were friendly and accomodating. Dinner and breakfast were very nice. Sitting room was comfortable and we were able to mingle with other guests. Bar served nice selection of ales and whisky.
Room was very comfortable. Shower was a bit tricky due to water coming from a spring and timing was needed to not empty the supply, but a little juggling on normal times conquered this issue.
Ready to come again and try some fishing.

The house and grounds were the outstanding part of our stay. The house oozes character and history. Perfect for a Highland stay.
Felix and Sarah our hosts were friendly and helpful, a special mention to Phillipa who went the extra distance to make our stay perfect.
If you want a true Highland experience then a stay at the Torridon estate will not disappoint.

Wanted to check out the town gallery to see if they sold the Torridon estates artists work. People were inside, eating or such, and it said OPENED but the doors were locked. We were on our way out of town around 11:00 am. Sad..we were in the mood to buy and to have a hot drink! Doesn’t say much for the community! Also, on our way into town, the night before, 2 people were sitting out front of the local store or restaurant and we had our car top down and waved! They just stared at us! Not too friendly!

This is no ordinary accommodation as one is staying in a family home which is being developed by the owners. The bedrooms are well renovated with comfortable beds. No tv which did not bother us. Instead, the house is peaceful.

We called ahead to Torridon stores and placed a grocery order. Jo, at the stores, was most helpful and provided most of what we needed. The rest we picked up at Tesco in Inverness. There is another useful store at Sheildaig.
We had excellent meals and service at the ‘Bo and Muc’, ‘The Walked Garden’ at Applecross, ‘Kishorn Seafood Bar’ at Kishorn.
Ben View was perfect for a family get together with four generations spread out through the house.
It is difficult to imagine finding a place that could offer better, ever-changing, views.

Torridon is simply one of the best places if you want to decompress and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The scenery is both dramatic and very beautiful, but also extremely peaceful and calming. I would love to visit this place at any time of the year (if it's accessible)

We only stayed one night whilst on the NC 500.
We only stayed one night whilst on the NC 500. Would be nice to stay longer but quite pricey for a B and B. We ate at Torridon Inn 4 miles away, worth the journey , alternative would be further away. Make sure you book somewhere to eat before travelling.
Surrounding area is stunning.
Torridon is a small Hamlet and quite secluded so take provisions. We arrived on a Sunday and the cafe was closed.
The cottages would be a good option for a number of days so no need to eat out.

Breakfast was served in the bedroom which felt odd at first but turned out to be quite nice. Breakfast was continental style and plenty to eat. House is a lovely piece of period history and room proportions were grandiose. Don’t expect five star decor, this is a huge place that needs tlc, prices you pay for the privilege of staying here are very fair. Grounds are both secluded and stunning. We walked out from the rear of the property past waterfalls and pools where you can swim up into the Torridon mountains.
I think Torridon YH is one of the best hostels I have stayed in. The team who run it are fantastic, and so warm and friendly, and so helpful, I had such a banter with them all.The whole place is spotless, a fantastic kitchen with everything for cooking and 3 cookers. The bedrooms were clean and spotless, and I was lucky to be put in a room with a shower and toilet too. Beds were very comfy too. There was nothing I didnt like while staying there.
very atmospheric, big old building very different from standard hotels. Esoteric. Big comfortable bed and the room was warm due to local heaters. Breakfast was served on a tray to the room. It turned out to be excellent and varied. Tucked away location at the end of long woodland drive. it felt like we had entered a Murder Mystery Weekend. Good Wi-Fi
Absolutely gorgeous /perfect location. Well equipped with everything you may need. Bright and spacious - location was excellent for exploring Torridon mountains and area
