Good location with friendly hosts. The room and bathroom were very clean and the little fridge was very handy. It was helpful that the extra room was made available to us for our belongings.

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.
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.
We were a group of 4 families and had the best time at the hostel.
The communal kitchen/living space was perfect for entertaining all ages.
There was also a brilliant garden space too.
Tomintoul is a great wee town and has everything you need for a Highland adventure.
Great pub, restaurant, a well stocked post office, gift shop, visitor centre and some lovely walks to explore the local area.
We were delighted to help some local travellers by drying their clothes in the drying room. was lovely to hear about their adventures too.
House was very clean and tidy as was the garden. I chose this property with my dog in mind as she is used to having a safe garden to run in and this was exceptionally good and safe. The house was well equipped. It was a home from home. We liked Tomintoul itself. A friendly place and nice cafes and pubs which allow dogs in. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t too kind to us but no one can be blamed for that.
Historic inn in the highest village of Scotland. Lovely location, large room. Excellent dinner and breakfast! Martin (innkeeper) was friendly and the place was comfortable and cozy. Inn is on the square in Tomintoul but it is a quiet and peaceful village. Kept windows open the entire night and had no noise.
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.
Location was convenient. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and it was very good. Food was delicious and reasonably priced (breakfast was included). Leah was our server for both. She was attentive, hard working, pleasant and friendly.
It was a great trip to Scotland and the houstes were really nice and helpful. At our arriving day we haven't got electrizy, than our Host organice a stay in the near hotel. The comunication was very fast. The flat lovely decorated - it feel like home.
I was in room7,would agree with other reviews that road noise was a problem.Food there was ok-nothing special but for £50 what do you expect…infact go across the road to the other pub/hotel and see what they are like!!!!
The Argyle Guest House is a well run establishment with everything needed for a brief or extended stay. The rooms are spacious and well put together and the hostess is wonderful.
Everything about the place! The owner took time to introduce herself. The warmth of everyone attached to the hotel. Good room and nice bar for the evening meal and drinks!
Found this gem of a hotel last minute. Comfortable, charming inn. Had live music and a cooked breakfast, which exceeded my expectations.
I'd def return if in the area
The hotel itself is a wee bit dated but it is lovely and clean and the staff are fantastic.
Food and local beer was great as a bonus.
Would definitely stay again
