The Torridon

We spent a night at the wonderful Torridon on the recommendation of our son who had visited recently. We live in the north of Scotland so took advantage of the wonderful weather currently. From start to finish our trip was wonderful. We know the area well so were aware of the stunning location but the incredible weather made the scenery even more spectacular. From welcome by Fadzai to check out the following the day we were made extremely welcome by the staff all of whom are very friendly. Duncan the sommelier in Bo’ and Muc was another staff member who stood out too. We had a lovely room in the Stables - an amazingly comfortable bed and a great bathroom. The Torridon is surrounded by hills and Loch Torridon and the opportunity for outdoor activities are endless. The hotel provides a walking trail map of those which are accessible from the hotel grounds too. Our only regret is that we were only there for one night but we will definitely be back.

We’ve came here 3 years ago so decided to come back. What’s changed. Not a lot it’s still an amazing location. Needs painting in places which is noticeable. We had breakfast in the main house and one dinner at 1887. Rest of the time we ate in Bo &Muc My feedback is the staff at the Bo & Muc are much more in the ball than the main house. The food in 1887 was lovely but twice we asked the server for another bottle of wine in 1887 and it never appeared. Breakfast felt like hard work. The staff in the main house lacked initiative. We were left waiting to even get a seat despite the server seeing us until the manager gave them a nudge. Asked for toast with my scrambled eggs but it came way after I had finished. Toast was then delivered but no butter, coffee delivered but no milk. Just felt like the 1887 staff are just not thinking. Not the same in Bo & Muc this is a slick operation and the French manager is on it 110%. We were blessed with amazing weather but the glass 1887 restaurant was boiling and no one opened the windows, there were no blinds one couple were actually eating breakfast with sunglasses on and a number of people asked to be moved. I think anywhere else you wouldn’t worry but this is not a cheap please to visit. Service in breakfast and 1887 needs to improve.

Stayed early May for my birthday what a amazing place all staff we met were very friendly & attentive. My room was amazing overlooking the loch very high standard of cleanliness and attention to detail. Breakfast good 1887 restaurant excellent. Great walk’s nearby . Couldn’t have had a better stay thank you for making my birthday special & memorable!

The whole experience was delightful. From the warm welcome to the beautiful room it could not have been nicer. We had a lovely meal in the Bo and Muc restaurant followed by some whisky tasting in the very well stocked whisky bar.The staff are so knowledgeable about the drinks their serving which added to the theatre of it all. To top it off the sun shone the whole time which made truly a Magical stay.

An afternoon tea for a friend's birthday. It was nice to get dressed up on the most perfect summery day and sit down to an afternoon tea. Everything was set out perfectly and very attentive staff. My friends dietary requirements were taken well into account and made to feel very inclusive to the experience and each item explained to us. The lady we had was new to the job but was very friendly and made sure our tea was always topped up. Each item of food was delicious and presented nicely. A walk round the grounds and garden made the whole experience very relaxing.

If you're looking for the perfect blend of gourmet dining, outdoor adventure, and an amazing selection of whiskey, look no further. The Torridon has it all! The food is spectacular—creative and flavorful in the 1887 restaurant and a more relaxed atmosphere in the Bo & Muc along with its cozy pub. The outdoor activities offered here are a huge highlight. From guided hikes and kayaking to just relaxing by the scenic trails. Veshengo is super knowledgeable about the natural history and current nature of the area, friendly, and a treat to be with. We spent two days with him and wish we had more time! The whiskey bar is not just a bar—it's an experience. With an amazing bartender, Shane, who knows his craft incredibly well, can recommend just the right whiskey for you and make you feel welcome. I can't recommend this place highly enough.
