Great B&B place, short drive out of Oban. Hosts are gracious and deserving of their many awards. We even got enough sunshine, to sit outside with tea and fresh scones taking in the most glorious views of distant clouds rolling over the loch.

Lovely small B&B where breakfast is optional (if you're not an early riser). The well-appointed rooms all have a private patio with a comfy love seat and a beautiful view of the loch. A lot of care and thought has been put into the design. Our hostess was lovely and quite helpful and her restaurant recommendation of the Old Inn was truly appreciated - best steak ever in a centuries old stone house. This was a lovely getaway from the more touristy areas and very handy to Glencoe for some very memorable hiking.

A great choice for a luxurious stay in a gorgeous remote setting along the loch. The views of this modern property are divine, the common lounge was well decorated and a great place to observe the sunset. Our room was well appointed, with great bedding and an awesome bathroom with both a shower and a bathtub with jets! There were very nice touches including great toiletries, robes and slippers, and a nice tea service in the room. The room can get hot, but a Dyson fan was included. Do note that when you book through Expedia features like the breakfast and scones on arrival are not included and would be added costs. The hostess offers what looked like amazing food options, but we did not use, so cannot comment.

The property offers a wonderful view of the water, is very well appointed, and offers a gourmet breakfast at an additional cost. It was a bit further away from Oban than we thought, but not insurmountable.

No scones for you! I have mixed feelings about our stay at Adtorna. The facilities are nice and location good. However, I have two issues. First, the facility was purpose built but lacks character. It reminded me of a modern German hotel. Second, and most importantly, the owner does not like Expedia customers. For example, all customers get fresh scones and cream upon check-in, except anyone who booked through Expedia. I asked the owner about this and it was because they get less of a cut from Expedia clients. I then asked why they put their booking on Expedia, and they said that "the exposure is priceless" and it helps drive customers to book directly through their website. All that is fine, but why discriminate against the customer? In my opinion, that is very bad business that demonstrates a lack of try concern for the customer experience. All over a a simple scone! At least I got to experience the nice fresh baked smell!
