Thank you, this was wonderful and I’ll make a note of this hotel. The best hotels I have stayed in were in Scotland. I think Scotland is beyond stunning anyway. It’s just fantastic that they know how to treat guests with such class - also in smaller places. The breakfasts were always phenomenal, too.
Thanks for watching and we're glad you liked our little video Lauren. We also hope you subscribe because we've got a lot more of this sort of thing to show you. :)
It's such a beautiful hotel! The power went out during our stay for a long time and we'd STILL go back in a heartbeat. The staff was so well trained, and they handled it perfectly. I loved waking up overlooking all the highland cows!
Thanks for putting this hotel on my radar! That rustic luxury drew me right in with it's warmth. Loved the shot with your car at :18. Great storytelling, as always!
Thank you Angela. The weather was a bit changeable when we were there, but I can imagine in the summer it is even more lovelier than it was when we were there. Can't wait to go back. :)
Absolutely stunning. This is our kind of holiday destination. What a beautiful video and a great commentary. Thank you for posting your review. 🙋🙋🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
What a lovely, peaceful way to start the weekend! That looks absolutely fantastic - I'm drooling at the thought of staying in a lovely hotel with wonderful food and scenery - it feels like lockdown has been forever 😩 I look forward to the next installment - thank you
Aww, thank you so much Patricia. I do have a small audiobook channel here but it's pretty much all sci-fi or Bill Bryson and I don't get much time to keep up with it lol. You're welcome to have a listen though. :)
Thank you Rich and Helen for this lovely review. Commentary was lovely - voice like rich chocolate! Hope you can sort the flickering lights otherwise excellent video. Look forward to seeing more. Greetings from North Wales.
Thank you for watching Colin. Yes, those LED lights are very troublesome for video recording as the flicker varies from room to room so you have to keep adjusting the shutter speed of the camera. Some get missed and it's very frustrating! :D
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment John. Much appreciated. I hope you consider subscribing as we've got a lot more to come very soon! :D
Many thanks for your good review video. We were there a few weeks ago for three nights and that amount of time is essential to explore the area. We agree with you about how good the hotel is and hope to stay again in the future. The casual restaurant also had fabulous food and service.
We stayed here in July 2018. Our room was spectacular with a large bay window facing the lake. I cannot think of any hotel that comes close to the standard set here.
Such a lovely accommodation. Your videography and speaking voice are top notch (minus the one lighting glitch). We couldn't expect a person who mispronounces "Gaelic" to properly pronounce "Beinn Eighe" and "Slioch" but that only made it more charming. Very well done. Slàinte mhath! (pronounced "Slansha va").
Thank you Markus and thank you for being so kind towards my pronunciations. Lighting is always a challenge, especially with LED interior lighting - they all flicker at different rates so you have to keep adjusting the camera shutter speed to accommodate that. sometimes I forget though and it's VERY annoying!
Hi Rich and Helen. Almost missed this before bed. The hotel is gorgeous. Waking through that bar was an experience I'm sure, and I could almost taste that gin as they poured it for you. It just beautiful. But leave me in the library and I would be happy, exploring books for hours on end. Too bad it was only one night. Booo. Hope all is well where you are tonight.
Another lovely video👍. We really enjoy them all but especially enjoyed this as we were married at The Torridon back in 2001 (their first “big” wedding, well, there were 14 of us😊) and we’ve been going back regularly ever since. Like many others now I suspect, it’s our special place❤. Glad you liked it too, but don’t tell anyone about it 😂. We’ll be back for Hogmanay again in a few weeks🥂, can’t wait! Thanks again! PS Noticed someone recently asked whether there’s a lift, perhaps someone else has already answered but if not, yes there is a lift. Just behind the reception desk as you go down the short corridor towards the second, smaller staircase.
I used to stay here in the 1980's when it was still in the hands of the Lovelace family. It was very rustic then but there was no problem walking in with your muddy boots. The rooms we usually had were pretty big and I remember one where the bath was in the tower. If I remember correctly, Ian (Mad Dog) Fraser (ex SAS) was the manager. He used to do things for the tourists like haggis shoots, where he would get a member of staff to go up on the roof and throw haggis off for him to pop at them with his twelve bore. I also remember a couple of fisherman getting caught out foul hooking salmon out of the Balgy when the water was really low. After Ian "spoke" with them they left the next morning without complaint. But generally he was very genial and a great host. One night he had to be away so he asked us to run the bar. Ah,... the good old days.
@@mojobear6472 The last time I came across your Dad was in 1995 when he was manager at The Shieldaig where I stayed for a few days with my brother. We had come north to scatter my first wife's ashes on Am Fasarinen. After a skinfull in the bar, Iain was amused as we struggled to help each other up stairs to bed, never quite sure if we were going to make it there.
@@donaldknox3608 haha! Most of Dad’s tales usually involved a dram or two! He must have been helping out at Sheildaig as he had taken over the lease at Loch Duich Hotel by then. We were there another 10 years or. I’ve not been back since 2001!
Your narration is a sweet hoot! Really lovely area. Thanks for this treat! BTW, I assume a closer pronunciation of the Gaelic for “mountain” would be “ben,” as in Ben Lomond. Just a guess...
Thanks for watching Mary. :) Yes, I had considered just using 'Ben' but didn't know if it was too 'English' but shouldn't have worried because I've been pulled over for the pronunciation anyway for several people! Haha!
Thank you for this excellent footage of my stunning homeland . In essence this lockdown has had a rather positive effect especially where travel is concerned. I feel so ashamed that I have barely touched the surface of my mother land..That aside , we are now raring to go !!!!!!!!!
Loved this video! We were booked to stay here in May of 2021 but had to cancel due to Covid. We adore the Scottish Highlands so we'll be back! Terri G.
Don't know when I'd ever get here, but the hotel looks so relaxing-- after a nice day of outdoor activities, of course! I think summer would be delightful.
Thanks for watching David. You're right, it's so relaxing and perfect for a post hike G&T by a roaring fire (they still light them in the summer I think)! :D
They won't want to have me because I would wander and study all the wood, the cracks, etc, caressing the etching and structures. I'm always in love with historical buildings and I am taken back in time when I go places with history. Your voice is lovely.
Haha! We're with you there Anna. It's definitely a building that warrants a good poke around because there's detail EVERYWHERE! Thank you for watching and your kind words. There's some great stuff coming soon so we hope you subscribe. :)
I had the good fortune to spend Easter at the Torridon estate owned by the last Earl of Lovelace , Peter Earl of Lovelace . Very happy memories of Peter and his sister .
My personal favourite would the Roman Camp Hotel in Callander, Perthshire. The start of the Highlands, so easy to get to from the central belt, close to Stirling, but very much another country. A little gem - and I've been going there when I'm in Scotland for more than 30 years.
every time i see videos of the highlands I know again why the central part of British Columbia Canada was called new calidonia. it looks like where I grew up.
We stayed here a few years ago. Beautiful views across the loch. Wonderful malts collection. The best in Scotland? Certainly the best we’ve stayed in, aside from Skibo, which is not a fair comparison because it is a private members club.
@ Visit With Us. What does the 4K mean in the title? Bit hard to give an opinion when you haven't posted a complete tour which you say will be in part 2. If your papping your camera to the left wouldn't the mountains still be to your left?
4K is the resolution of the video (it's Ultra High Definition). We couldn't stay longer than one night because the hotel is always so fully booked, so we didn't get to do all the exploring and adventurous stuff that the Torridon provide. We will certainly be doing that when we get the chance to return. We did as much as we could in the time we had there which was enough to form an opinion and produce a video. Thanks for watching. :)
We are looking for somewhere to stay for my 40th next year - so putting you on the spot.... If you had to choose here or Fingal, where would you choose???
Hi Russell. Wow, that's a difficult one. If you're coming from the south, the Torridon is a lot further on into the Highlands so it's more difficult to get to. It's also very wild around it and there's so much more to do in and around Leith. Gosh, that's just the start...
There are numerous great hotels to enjoy in Scotland and some on the NC 500 that satisfy many peoples tastes and expectations; prices vary from ridiculous to sensible. I have my favourites.
Thanks for watching and your comment Rod. We totally agree with you! If you watch our NC500 series, you'll see we stayed in the most diverse places and they were all great in their own way. :)
Looks a bit over stuffed and well worn. Just like me. This hotel is amazing, and your videography is really excellent. I can hardly wait to get back to Scotland again. Thank you so much for posting this as well as your other videos.
I wonder why they don't have horseback riding as part of their activities. It would also be marvelous if they hosted an Agatha Christie Murder Mystery dinner once in a while. Too hokey for such a classy establishment?
Five stars... no way..., closer to 10 stars, of all the hotels I've seen on TV this is the one I'd rather stay at, beautifully shot and narrated. Only criticism, video not long enough, as teacher said can do better!
I suppose they’re going for the ‘contemporary’ look rather than the traditional Bernard. It’s all down to personal taste of course. The meal definitely retained the sense of occasion though. 🙂
Glad you enjoyed it Jill! You lovely folk don't get paid nearly as much as you deserve. Helen was a teacher so she knows full well how challenging it all is. Thank you! :D
We are lucky enough to call this beautiful hotel our local...we live 25 miles away...their scones are to die for ❤️
Ah, you are SO lucky! And I never got to try the scones! Gah!
We're at the other end of the loch track at Badan Mhugaidh. A very scenic walk with a pub at the end of it 🙂

Wish we’d had time to stay more than one night to explore the area a bit more - and eat in the pub 😁
Brought tears of longing to my eyes 😍. Soon, I hope!

Hi Matt, if you watch the video again about the “whisky” bar, you might find that you would be drinking Irish or American if you spell it “whiskey!”
@@stonemarten1400 Martin could not be bothered to change it at the time ? But it’s good that the spell cheque department is on the case 👍

The best place to stay in Scotland is Balmoral, but commoners are not allowed to stay. So the Torridon wins on that scale.
Haha! One does LOVE Balmoral but one has to lower one's sights a bit . :D
Scottish culture at its finest, to be sure.

Restaurant looks rather utility - no tablecloths at dinner!! Where is the sense of occasion?
I suppose they’re going for the ‘contemporary’ look rather than the traditional Bernard. It’s all down to personal taste of course. The meal definitely retained the sense of occasion though. 🙂
This should be my house
