Richmond Arms Hotel, hotel in Tomintoul

Including a restaurant and 2 bars serving many local whiskies, the Richmond Arms Hotel is located in the attractive village of Tomintoul in the Cairngorms National Park.

Excellent location and friendly staff. I arrived later than expected and was delighted to be offered a hot meal. The bed was extremely comfortable and I had a great night's sleep. Thanks once again for packed lunch due to early start. This was a really great stopover on my walking trip. Hospitality much appreciated and can thoroughly recommend.

Argyle Guest House, hotel in Tomintoul

Set in Tomintoul, 43 km from Balmoral Castle and 16 km from Corgarff Castle, Argyle Guest House offers accommodation with free WiFi in a historic building.

We really enjoyed our stay here! Our room was spacious, comfortable and well decorated. It was a very nice place to relax after exploring Cairngorm. The owner (apologies I cannot remember her name) was so lovely, charming and welcoming. It felt like a real B&B. The breakfast was excellent and there were also (good) gluten free options! Would definitely return here.

Craiglynne Hotel, hotel in Tomintoul

Situated in its own grounds, a short walk from the town centre, the Craiglynne Hotel offers a warm, friendly atmosphere with open fires in both the lounge and bar.

We had a nice big room overlooking the front of the hotel. It had tea and coffee and a seating area in the bay window. The breakfast was very good. There was a lot of choice and it was well cooked/prepared. The staff were very friendly. We were only there one night but it was a good place to stay while breaking our journey south.

    An absolutely great place to get away from the monotony of everyday life The countryside around provides plenty of peaceful walks, skiing is also available at the nearby Lecht Ski Centre, who manage to provide skiing even when there is very little snow about ! The Richmond Arms Hotel is the place to stay. Provides a great base with fantastic ownership, service, food and drink.

    Even at the height of summer, be prepared with your layered wind and waterproofs. As long as you have the correct clothing, the fine views to the Cairngorms and village walks can be enjoyed fully. There is plenty of bird life to view. The gift shop and clock restaurant are well appointed and worth patronising.

    Friendly village.

    Friendly village. Lovely cafes and a wonderful gift shop Spendrift. I did some Christmas shopping there and it was only May!. Best bacon rolls ever at the cafe across the main road from the house. We ate out at the Richmond hotel which is dog friendly and we also had an excellent fish supper from a van which comes on a Tuesday late afternoon. There are lots of lovely walks around the village itself as well as others in the surrounding area which is beautiful . Ideal spot for a relaxing holiday.

    Perfect location if you are wanting to explore the snow roads and the north east of scotland. We only stayed overnight so can't tell you a lot about the town but it was very pretty and in an excellent location.

    Richmond Hotel also did excellent food. Sadly The Clock Restaurant across the road is not currently open due to Covid restrictions. Having been to Tomintoul three times previously I can highly recommend the available accommodation and the location in general.

    Facilities in Tomintoul are somewhat limited and the potential of the place has not nearly been exploited. It was therefore great to stay at Gordon House, where everything you need is supplied without needing to even leave the premises. Bed, breakfast, evening meal, beer, wine …. and even Whisky tasting. The food was excellent throughout, the rooms clean and comfortable and the company from the characters Les and John was a treat.

    The hotel is in a beautiful little hamlet and quiet. We were warmly welcomed and made feel comfortable and welcome throughout our stay. The hotel has a pub/restaurant which served great food, good drinks and great banter with the custodians and the locals. The hotel is well-kept, tidy and comfortable. The room was very spacious with comfortable beds. Try the curry, it's excellent!

    We received such a warm welcome from the very friendly staff at the Richmond, and the room was very comfortable and clean. A highlight was the shower, which was just as hot and powerful as you'd want after a long day's walk. We would certainly recommend the Richmond for anyone passing through Tomintoul.

    The house is very well located, very close to the central square of Tomintoul, with its hotels, brilliant restaurant (the Clockhouse), village store and tourist office. Our family of eight found the house very spacious and comfortable. We also enjoyed the nearby scenic walks on the Glenlivet Estate.

    The property was exceptionally clean and a lovely mix of modern and traditional inside. I would thoroughly recommend booking. The photos really don’t do the property justice. Everything is really good quality. Tomintoul has some good places to eat and is a lovely, welcoming little town.

    A lovely warm welcome at this cosy hotel. I was up to run The Dramathon. Staff were so friendly, accomodating and helpful, provided me with a packed lunch and even left bath salts in my bathroom on my return from the run. Cosy log fire in the dining room. Meals delicious.

    I loved my stay at the Argyle Guest House. The hosts were knowledgeable about the areas around Tomintoul, really welcoming and the b&b is right in the middle of the village. Very happy to have got a chance to spend time in this spectacular part of Scotland!
