The dorm rooms were clean, had good heating and ventilation, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was also massive and very organized, perfect for the large number of travelers. The dining room and lounge were also clean, spacious, and comfortable. The staff was very helpful, polite, and on top of everything, they clearly care for the travelers and the place.

Although it would be difficult to find a hotel in a bad location in this part of the country, the hotel on the side of the Loch, set away from anywhere else is great. Positioned nicely between the villages of Badachro & Gairloch and also the hill walks about 30 minutes drive away in Torridon.
The food served is good although I would recommend checking out some of the restaurants in on the coast nearby.
With free private parking, the property is 21 miles from Eilean Donan Castle and 23 miles from Kyle of Lochalsh. Outdoor seating is also available at Thainstone dome.

We loved the location to the beach on the Loch and to town and the historic building. We were thrilled and surprised when the bagpiper came out and played for us as we had a pint on the porch in the sun. The price was right and the staff were lovely. We came back for the bar and the beach a few more times when we were lodged further north from Poolewe. Gairloch is a must.
Located in Gairloch, The Millcroft offers 3-star accommodations with a bar. Free WiFi and free parking is available. All rooms are fitted with a private bathroom, while most rooms offer sea views.
The house and grounds were the outstanding part of our stay.
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.
Torridon estate B&B has an eccentric charm whilst retaining being very Scottish. The location is absolutely stunning. Our room was beautiful with the comfiest bed ever. The continental breakfast was a refreshing change without a trace of fried haggis which was brilliant! Sarah and Felix are terrific hosts - but once booking in is done they just leave you to it, which was perfect. We
would definitely recommend staying here and hope to return! One of the quirkiest and most interesting places we’ve stayed in on our NC500 trip.
Torridon Estate B&B was beautiful a grand home with multiple self catering cottages set on a large estate overlooked by mountains & overlooking a loch 💕. Felix & Sarah were lovely hosts we stayed in the main residence in beautiful very & comfortable ensuited rooms which was lovely, continental breakfast is served in your room. The property is not far from cafes & restaurants in Toddidon & Shieldaig we would definitely stay again & recommend as a great option when touring the highlands.
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.
Absolutely gorgeous /perfect location. Well equipped with everything you may need. Bright and spacious - location was excellent for exploring Torridon mountains and area
