We love having you both every year - see you next August

Wat een super leuke accommodatie! De kamers zoals het in schotland moet zijn: Idyllisch en schoon. De dame van het huis was erg aardig. Het ontbijt perfect.Wij zouden iedereen deze accommodatie aan raden

The room is perfect with a large exclusive bathroom. Thank so much to the owner for her kindness, her precious advice on places to visit in the area and for the excellent breakfast.

Argyle House was very comfortable, the hosts attentive and great breakfast with home baked bread.

Stayed in a superior double room. Plenty of space, room was clean and fresh. Our younger dog finds it hard to settle in any new environment and settled immediately once we entered the room. What ever the Feng shui is in the guest house our dogs loved it. The additional doggy care kit in the bathroom was a really nice touch. Breakfast was amazing. We will certainly return.

It was wonderful here, a lovely hostess, a lovingly furnished room with a very good bed and an excellent breakfast. This part of the Highlands is fantastically beautiful, with a new and surprising view around every bend. The Clockhouse Restaurant diagonally opposite is also highly recommended.

We loved the place, the confortable room, the excellent breakfast and the welcome !

We had a very lovely Stay in Tomintoul. Diane was extremely welcoming and the room (stag room) that we were able to enter from the outside was very clean and perfect for our stay.

Lovely little Guest House in beautiful location.The landlady Diane is very welcoming as always.Rooms are cosy and immaculate.Breakfast is amazing.Thanks Diane see you soon.

What can I say?I have been coming since 12 years now!It’s always just like coming home!!!

Diane is lovely and the bedrooms very comfortable. Breakfast delicious. What more could you ask for.

Unser Aufenthalt begann mit einem sehr herzlichen Empfang von Dianne.Das Zimmer, das wir für vier Tage hatten, war liebevoll im Vintagestil mit viel Geschmack eingerichtet und geräumig. Der Stil passt zu dem alten Haus. Da störte uns auch nicht, dass man die Duschen hörte, wenn sie in Gebrauch waren.Das Frühstück war super, mit von der Wirtin selbst gebackenem Brot (einfach lecker), auf Wunsch gab es Spiegel- oder Rührei, Ei mit Lachs und einer tollen Sauce oder auch ein schottisches Frühstück mit Haggis, immer dabei Müsli, Joghurt, Tee und Kaffee.Dianne gab uns auch gute Tipps zum Wandern. Der Parkplatz ist direkt gegenüber vom Haus. Im Ort gibt es mehrere Restaurants und kleine Lädchen. Wir hatten hier schöne Urlaubstage. Vielen Dank, Dianne!

Diane is a wonderful host with very good local knowledge and advice for visits and places of interest . Our room was rather wonderful with Botanicals being the decor theme . Breakfast was very tasty and set us up for the day . Can’t wait to return .

We really enjoyed our host and she was even so flexible we could have the room before the actual check-in. That helped as we arrived completely wet.

This is a great place to stay.The owner was friendly and very helpful.The beds were really comfortable and the room comprehensively furnished and stylishly decorated.Delicious breakfast with plenty of choice.

Diane welcomed us with open arms and hugs when we left. The bed we had was so comfy, the shower was nice and hot and easy to figure out! She cooked us a great breakfast in the morning! The town was cute and picturesque . I would definitely stay here again!

The vegan breakfast was lovely and the room was nice. The bathroom was clean and big.

Small B&B with so much charm and personality! The service and breakfast is 100% ❤️

We stayed here for one night on our way to Edinburgh and were not disappointed. Great host, huge room big comfortable bd and a great bathroom. The included breakfast was fantasticI would highly recommend this property.

We enjoyed our stay with you . It was very comfortable and clean . The breakfast was amazing .

My wife and I stayed in the Stag room, with its super comfy superking bed , power shower and a room so big. Dianne and Steve are great hosts and look after you every needsBreakfast is the best way to start the day in this great scottish B&B. Look forward to seeing you both again.

It wad the second time we stayed at Argyle House. Again we were felt at home. A wonderful place to stay. The breakfast was great and the oats was outstanding.

Perfect stop after a day cycling in the rain. Hosts were very helpful storing our bikes and drying our gear. Rooms are well appointed and spacious. Breakfast was excellent. Highly recommended.

We stopped in here for 2 nights as part of our 25th anniversary trip to the UK.Amazing times. Super clean and nice. Our hosts were fabulous. If back in Speyside we would go out of our way to stay again.

Wonderful welcome, charming. We got very good advice for visiting the area. Splendid breakfasts with a large choice of dishes. We highly recommend !

We had a wonderful time once again at argyle house a very warm welcome, great food, comfortable accommodation, and the hosts are pleasant and nothing is too much troubleThank you both for a wonderful week

Dianne is a lovely and welcoming host, who clearly loves what she's doing. We enjoyed staying at the Argyle House ... and the home-made bread for breakfast was to die for. I hope I'll get the chance to stay there again soon.

We can’t give enough complements to the owners of this b&b. Facility was fantastic, breakfast was also wonderful. But the hosts, Steven and Diane were the most welcoming owner/operators we met on our 2 week venture. Thank you for the nice memory.

Had a lovely two night stay. room was nicely appointed and breakfast was delicious. Very convenient location with free parking across the street. Bed was quite comfy as well. will stay again!

Argyle House is an old style hotel run like a big household. It's success is due to an energetic, friendly and so accommodating owner. We loved the village of Tomintoul and am glad we chose it as one of our stops on our tour around Scotland

Staying at the Argyle was such a pleasure! Tomintoul was a lovely little town and our stay was made special by the hospitality at the Argyle. The room was clean, comfortable, and it’s clear they pay close attention to detail. Greeted after a long day of cycling with a dram and restaurant recommendations, and then sent off with full bellies and a warm heart after the complimentary breakfast and good conversation. We’d recommend the Argyle to anyone!

Brilliant guest house with lovely bedroom and en-suite. The whisky in the room was a nice touch. Breakfast was excellent and the owner is very welcoming and a fountain of knowledge on the local area and things to see. I would have no hesitation in recommending you stay here

Dianne made us feel very welcome. She was a great source of local knowledge. Our roomwas spacious and clean and well equipped with tea and coffee making equipment , a fridge and a welcoming drink.Steve’s breakfast eggs were perfectly prepared and set us up for the day.I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this facility to anyoneThanks, Dianne, for helping to make this a special experience.

Thankyou

This was a last minute booking for me just finding myself in the area. I got their last room and it was great. Super comfy bed, powerful shower, clean and roomy.It's in a great location for the Cairngorms, dark skys and the breakfast was perfect.Can't wait to have an excuse to stay again.

Haste ye back :)

Diane und Steven waren wirklich sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber.Wir waren wirklich ein wenig traurig, als wir Tomintoul verließen.Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen (tolles Frühstück, selbstgebackenes Brot).

Great place to stay. Welcoming friendly hostess. Comfortable room with a good breakfast. Would highly recommend.

Everythink was just perfect. Lovely and warm welcome by host Dianne. We got room upgrading for free due cancelled flight of other guests. Breakfast was super good. Flexibility with check out.

Fantastic B&B,very clean and well-equipped big room with hot shower.Lovely host. Very nice hot breakfast selection . Absolutely delicious home made bread. Definitely will be back.

Lovely stay and great food and welcomed well

We only stayed for one night but wished we had stayed for longer. We had a free upgrade for the room which really helped us due to our bags and thick jackets. Though we were supposedly heading into spring, it was still really cold outside, but it was really warm in the house, no thanks to Dianne's hospitality! Breakfast was so delicious with homemade bread by her husband! We also received a lot of tips about going to the Dark Sky site in our attempt to catch the aurora. The site is just round the corner from the house, making the trip into the total darkness and back really easy. The carpark is just opposite too so it is very convenient for all on a road trip. Once again, thank you for the wonderful stay!

We stayed for one night at Argyle House, the room was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast, especially the homemade bread. Also got great recommendations for hikes and things to see close by.

The Argyle House was the perfect place for me after a day of exploring. Dianne and Steve have created a home away from home experience with warm welcome, clean comfortable and charming rooms, and a home-cooked breakfast that was hot and delicious! Thanks for making me feel so welcome and cared for 4,000 miles from my home. Give the dogs a pat from me!

Beautiful, comfortable room, all details considered to make stay comfortable,ie. Spare water bottle by the kettle.Great hospitality, home-made bread, best breakfast ever.

The place is clean, breakfast was good and the host is so helpful and accommodative.Definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay at Argyle Guest House. Dianne was a delightful host full of stories and recommendations. We even got a better room that we had booked. My biggest regret is not staying longer - but every trip has to come to an end. We'll be back!!

Thank you and haste ye back

Made for the perfect stop for us to get away for a night and do some walking in Glenlivet. The room was gorgeous and bed so comfy!! There's a village pub a few doors down and breakfast was delicious. Can't fault our stay, will be back.

It's situated on the main street in a small village with beautiful landscape surrounding it.The place was clean. The breakfast used quality ingredients and the homemade bread was a nice touch.The proprietor was friendly and helpful.

Thank you so much

Response

Thank you

Clean, cosy and comfortable with the best bowl of porridge I have had in ages and a nice breakfast spread. I Highly recommend Argyle House for a hassle free, relaxed and friendly stay!

Haste ye back

We loved our brief stay with the Argyle House. Our hostess was lovely to chat to with and very welcoming. The room was warm and cozy, and smelled wonderful! There was a welcome pack for our pup (he loved the ball) which we felt was very thoughtful. We slept deeply in the quiet and the darkness of the Highlands. Breakfast was great the following morning: perfectly sized, plenty of coffee. We'll be back, absolutely.

Very friendly and helpful.The room was ideal, ie roomy and clean.Plenty of room for the work I had to do.

We spent 2 nights at this lovely guest house in Tomintoul. We received a warm friendly welcome. The room was large clean and nicely decorated. Make sure your hungry as breakfast was high quality and enough to last you most of the day. Would highly recommend

A delightful little stay - recommend it for sure!! From offering recommendations to accommodating dietary needs, my sister and I appreciated the details and had a lovely visit.Dianne was really friendly, the space was cozy and we felt welcomed.There was huge amounts of TASTY food for breakfast so we were all geared up for a day of adventures.Puzzles and games in common spaces for entertaining ourselves in a relaxed way was a great addition.The dark skies spot is right around the corner which was nice too for us to go out with a bit of whisky in the cold!Thanks so much for being a special bit of our holidays!

We have floated away from our three nights in Tomintoul! I don’t remember the last time I was so relaxed.Room was warm and cosy. Plenty of hot water for the bath. Most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Breakfast delicious (home made bread :-) )As always, Dianne and Steve are magnificent hosts. Thank you.

Diane was a wonderful hostess. She received us with joy, and let us felt welcome. She explained about the local distillery, and gave a tip to try the tomintoul 16yo, which I’ve tried in the local pub (next door to argyle).In breakfast her husband cooked us a full Scottish breakfast and eggs royale, both wonderful, and offered us some yogurt, marmalade, and mix of berries.The bed is very comfortable and warm.

Having followed Argyle Guest House on Facebook for some time, I was itching to go and see it for myself. Well, I am so glad I did. The unique charm of staying in a period property, where every room has been lovingly and individually created by the owners, is worth much more than the very competitive price they charged. The experience was enhanced by the warmest of welcomes from our fabulous hosts, Dianne and Steve. Nothing was a bother to them. The generous and perfectly cooked breakfasts really set us up for the day and the porridge truly was the best ever. Steve even showed us his spurtle (and you don't often get that for free!). It was the perfect getaway, relaxing in old world charm with all mod cons, great hosts, and plenty of canine companions. Definitely worth another visit.

Diane was the perfect host from our first phone call until our departure. Our room was large, comfy and cosy.The breakfasts were well worth getting up in time for and Steve's home made bread was delicious.Vegetarian and vegan choices were on offer which was very welcome. We will be returning! Thank you Diane and Steve for a lovely stay.

I returned to Argyle Guesthouse for one night after having spent one week there ten years ago. It felt to me like returning to a home away from home. Loved the Scotty Dog Room - comfy bed & great shower! Dianne was again the perfect host. Breakfast (with bread fresh from the oven) was as great as I remembered it from my first stay. Will certainly come back when I‘m in this part of Scotland again. :-)

Best accommodation and breakfast we’ve ever experienced. We were so warmly welcomed by Diane to our beautiful room. Nothing was ever a bother including keeping our bikes secure. The room exceeded all expectations- warm, comfortable, large yet cosy. Location was prefect with a fantastic pub a few doors down. And then breakfast……highly recommend the Salmon and eggs. Lovely fruits, cereal and even homemade bread. Thank you so much for making us feel warm for so many reasons. Best wishes, Catherine and Laurie

A nice warm room, comfortable bed,good shower and tea making facilities. Diane was an intersting person to meet and made us feel very welocme.

My friend and I stayed one night in late autumn and found this place to be perfect. Warm, very cozy beds, everything we could need in the room and a warm welcome from our host. We were given a good recommendation for a pub down the road for dinner and had a good sleep. Breakfast was top notch. I stay in a lot of hotel.com places and when I saw the rating, I knew this would be good. It absolutely was and didn't disapoint. I'd highly recommend staying here.

I loved staying at the Argyle Guesthouse! My room was perfect, the bed super-comfy, breakfast delicious (homemade bread too!).Highly recommended, a rare wee gem!!

The room was very cozy and beautifully decorated. The host was so friendly and very accommodating. It has the comfiest bed I have slept in.The pub next door was recommended to us for dinner and it did not disappoint.Breakfast in the morning was filling and peaceful. The homemade bread tasted amazing.Thank you very much for our stay :)

Thank you for your stay. xx

We stayed at The Argyle House for 3 nights. Good room and beds.We were warmly welcomed by Dianne. She a perfect host. Very sensitive for your needs. And lots of tips for a good stay.Breakfast was perfect with al the homemade food. Made and served with love.It’s a lovely place to stay

This Guest House is in a great location and the room we booked (Stag room) was large, comfortable, and well appointed with all the amenities for a relaxing stay.The breakfast was awesome and the hosts were welcoming and informative on local attractions and travel suggestions.Would definitely stay here again.

I would highly recommend the Argyle House. Rooms were spotless and really warm and comfortable- every detail had been thought of. We arrived soaking wet and muddy after a rainy day cycling and Dianne and Steve couldn't have been more welcoming. They really went beyond to help us out when our travel plans had to change due to flooding. And they sent us on our way the next day with one of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Excellent hosts in every way.

Response

Awhh thank you

My daughter and I stayed here and wish we had the holiday time to stay longer! The room was absolutely beautiful, the beds blissfully comfortable, and the radiators lovely and warm in the cool Scottish air. Diane and Steve were super hosts and very accommodating - breakfast was adjusted to suit us (and the oats were delicious!!!), Diane gave us lots of handy local recommendations, and a minor maintenance need was addressed promptly the same day to make for a fantastic stay. Highly recommend! Also, the local pub on the corner has FANTASTIC food (the best steak and ale pie that we’ve eaten!). Thank you, Diane and Steve 😃

Response

Thank you

We had a lovely welcome on arrival and our experience just improved for the duration of our stay. The room was lovely, it’s clean and the bed is so comfy. There’s a lovely little touch of the local whisky in the room!The breakfast was delicious. It was great to meet Dianne,Steven and their dogs too!!!! What a great place. We were visiting with my parents and my mum being an ex B&B proprietor was completely bowled over by the whole experience, especially the Stag room which was their accommodation for the night!

Response

Thank you xx

We spent one night at this excellent accomodation in Tomintoul. Comfortable room, delicious freshly prepared breakfast with several options (including vegetarian) and tasteful interior decor. Would have loved to stay longer and looking forward to our next visit.

Comfortable room, wonderful hosts.

Einfach alles traumhaft. Von den Gastgebern über die Zimmer bis hin zum Frühstück mit selbst gebackenem Brot.. Alles so liebevoll und ordentlich. Wir wären am liebsten geblieben. Besser geht nicht.

Would highly recommend staying at Argyle House, warm and friendly welcome by Dianne.Rooms are spacious and pleasant.Freshly made breakfasts each day.Easy parking.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Lovely and spacious room, very friendly and informative host.Only negative is the proximity to a significant junction in the small village but, having said that, the traffic overnight was minimal.

We had a wonderful stay at Argyle House, rooms are lovely and breakfast is absolutely excellent! Hope to come back!

Great stay & Diane was great.

Wonderful Room, great host and excellent breakfast.

We had a fantastic time here and can’t wait to get back

Schönes Zimmer, sehr freundliche und zugewandte Gastgeberin. Tolle Lage und Umgebung.

Was so nice to come to this b&b we go back every year lovely place food is amazing owners are so nice friendly like being home againroom are lovely also will deffo be bk again next year thank you Diane and Stephen again for our lovely stay would not go anywhere else

This B&B is homely, clean and the service unbeatable.The room we stayed in had a cute pheasant theme. It was clean and we had a private bathroom as well as all amenities.The homemade breakfast was amazing with even freshly baked bread. The egg Benedict was amazing. It was also well situated.Although the home does need some minor updates, it is very comfortable.Strongly recommended.

Dianne is just the most perfect host with very warm welcoming and great advice.The room was very clean and comfortable.The breakfasts were amazing.

Perfect place to sleep in the Speysidd Valley.The room was spacious, confortable and clean.Our host was very nice with us, it was a pleasure to have been welcomed by her !The breakfast is delicious, totally homemade.And a little gift was in our room when we arrived.This place is the definition of what a perfect B&B should be.

We stayed in the Stag room which is spacious and clean with a comfortable King bed and even a mini fridge. Tea, coffee and even 12 year Tomintoul whiskey are offered in room. Service including a hearty breakfast is impeccable. Dianne and Steve are wonderful people, treating us with respect, kindness and unexpected generosity. When our car broke down in the middle of nowhere, Steve offered to come to rescue us and even declined when we offered to pay him. They're very busy with running the B&B, yet always tried to help us, with a smile. Coming from a big city, we're really touched by the human connection. Thank you for everything and we wish you longevity and happiness!

Was für ein süßes und liebevoll arrangiertes B&B. Wir hatten ein wunderschönes Zimmer,die Gastgeberin war extrem nett, gab Tipps,erzählte die Geschichte.... und es gab frisches Brot. Bisher die beste Unterkunft unseres Urlaubs..

The host was so friendly and helpful.We stayed in the stag room,very spacious,clean and you have your own independent entrance.We had a dog with us and they left a basket with dog feeging bowls, towel and treats for her.Even a sausageEvery morning for her breakfast.Definitely recommend this B&B

We had a really nice and comfortable stay at the Argyle House! Everything was great, easy going and the owners were very well-coming. The breakfast was a challenge! We got a choice out of five different styles. Delicious.

Host Friendly, welcoming & had a pleasant stay

Good location. Huge comfy bed/bedding. Good shower. Relaxing stay. Good breakfast options. Friendly host. Everything you need. Will be back.

A wonderful stay like every year.It‘s just like coming home!!!

Helpful hosts, excellent room, friendly and a would not hesitate to recommend.

What a lovely inn and innkeeper. The room was cozy and breakfast was terrific. The best part was the incredibly comfortable bed.

We had a lovely warm welcome from Dianne. She was chatty and helpful during our few days there. Our room was comfortable. Tomintoul is in a lovely location and is a nice village. The breakfasts are amazing. There's a really good choice and it's all fresh. Steven's homemade bread is delicious. Thank you for the recipe.

Excellent stay – nice rooms, lovely staff, great breakfast. Would stay again!

A delight to stay here. We hope to come again.

Comfortable room. Wonderful breakfast. Welcoming and caring owners. What's not to like.

Very friendly hostess, good rooms and a great breakfast. Good value for money. I will stay here again!

We have stayed at argyle house for a few years now, Dianne and Steve are the perfect hosts.The standard has never changed from being very goodWe are looking for our dates ready for next year so we are booked in as it is very rare they have empty rooms. They have a number of guests like us that return and I think that says a lot.

I really enjoyed my stay, the owners of the Argyle House could not have been more inviting and lovely. The rooms were clean and very tidy and the beds comfortable. The breakfast had a huge selection and was offan excellent standard. Loved it and would come back.

Very good hosts. Breakfast excellent. Perfect stay in schotland.

Clean & good breakfast

Excellent accommodation and host.

We had a great overnight stay at Argyle House. The room was really comfortable, the bathroom is huge, and the overall attention to detail and kind service was great. Breakfast was amazing- cooked breakfast as well as freshly baked bread.

Excellent ; perfect quality - good price

Cozy, clean, warm and friendly B&B with fantastic breakfast (hot & cold, self-made bread that is still warm) and one of the best spots to watch the Northern lights just behind the house. Free parking available and, above all, lovely owners who really care and make you feel more than welcome! I am so glad we found this little treasure!

It was a very heartful and warm welcome and stay at Argyle House...The House ist just in the middle of the Highlands with a stunning scenery, perfect to make nice trips around...Room and accomodation was comfortable, Lots of nice details that made my stay relaxing and feeling like at home.A perfect breakfast with different selections and the highlight for me was the freshly baked bread with butter and Jam...delicious.I will come Back for sure...Zoltan

Dianne is a top-notch hostess. The accommodation is very good and is in a quiet village. Restaurants and pub within walking distance.Breakfast is deliciously prepared by Steven like a 5-star chef; huge choice and delicious freshly baked bread.

Our stay at the Argyle Guest House was absolutely lovely. The rooms were spacious and decorated beautifully. The breakfast was excellent and delicious. And the hostess was friendly and fascinating. Would highly recommend.

Diane is a great hostess.Welcoming and attentive. We had a clean and lovely room.

We stayed in the stag room which was absolutely gorgeous. Beds were very comfortable and the shower was great! Breakfast in the morning was lovely and the home made bread was delicious.Thank you again Diane!

We stayed 1 night in the Stag Room and it was fantastic, Diane and Steve have thought of everything. Very nice and clean room, with funny and homemade details. Breakfast was lovely and both are very kind and attentative hosts. We will be back, and stay for a few days as we want to explore the area a lot more.Thanks for having us!

Was a very nice stay at this guest house. The owner lady is friendly, gives out a homey feeling. The scottish breakfast was also delicious. Would stay again if I need an accomodation around the north Cairngorms area.

Great guest house, lovely couple, very friendly clean and presented to a high standard. After a hard days work nothing better than a hassle free evening.

Second time staying at Argyle Hpuse and it's still Fantastic! Room had absolutely everything we needed and more. Great breakfast, both the vegetarian and meaty. Our dog was spoilled rotten and he enjoyed his stay too. Will definitely be back.

Very last minute booking, beautiful room with en suite.The bed was to die for, so comfy and large. The owner couldn't do enough for you, breakfast was delicious.Overall a fabulous find.Thank u so much for having us!

Our second stay at Argyle House and yet another very enjoyable visit. Great hospitality and excellent hearty breakfasts. Highly recommended.

Had a lovely stay, Argyle house has the very personal and homey atmosphere of a really good B&B that's hard to find in today's age of Airbnbs and corporate hotels. Breakfast was killer too. Would recommend.

My son and I stayed at the weekend as skiing at The Lecht which is only a few minutes drive away- perfect 😁Dianne and Steve are lovely, breakfast was perfect, rooms really cosy, spotless and attention to detail really good.My son is specially enjoyed the fluffy dressing gowns and the fab shower!!! 😁😁Would definitely stay again

Dianne and Steven made every effort to make our stay comfortable and at ease. Ended up snowed in so couldn't ski at the (nearby) Lecht as intended, instead we enjoyed the down time in beautiful peaceful surroundings and a very comfortable room forn2 nights. Hope to return and try again!

I had an amazing stay at the Argyle Guest house. The hosts were friendly, helpful and very accommodating. The facilities and breakfast were exceptional for the nightly rate.And it is located in a beautiful area, if the opportunity arises I will check out their availability before looking elsewhere.

Lovely guest house.Stephen greeted us and immediately made us feel welcome.Room was big and magnificently decorated.Breakfast was delicious.I urge you to go and see for yourself :)

Very friendly, helpful owners. Lovely accommodation which was clean tidy and warm. I will becrutrning for work to the area and will be extremely disappointed if I can’t get booked there. Thank you for my stay.

Diane is a lovely host, the rooms are welcoming, comfortable and cosy. There's a great selection for breakfast, which Diane cooks fabulously.

Really comfortable stay and wonderful breakfasts, we cannot wait to go back. Absolutely recommended!

Argyle guest house was an extremely welcoming place to stay for us. Our host Diane was very warm and tried a lot to help us with all our concerns (especially getting out of Tomintoul via public transport :)). The breakfast room was also very cute and cosy and the vegetarian Scottish Breakfast was so delicious. We would always come back if we are in the area again. Thank you so much for everything!

A warm welcome greeted me at the door. The room was excellent, so much so that I have now stayed there twice. The breakfast has a great choice for everyone. Deliciously cooked & came with Marmite on request !!Many thanks & I look forward to staying there again.

Argyle House is a fantastic guest house. On arrival we were met by the lovely Dianne who told us she had upgraded us to a bigger room on the ground floor with direct access to outdoors so that we wouldn't have to come down the stairs if our dog needed to go outside. The Stag room is superb, with a massive, very comfortable bed and a couple of chairs at a low table. Dressing gowns supplied & ample supplies of refreshments including Whisky provided to enhance our stay. Although we didn't meet Steven he cooked our delicious breakfasts. Dianne's home made bread was absolutely amazing. We would highly recommend this B&B for either a short or longer break.

A very comfortable, cozy stay. We much appreciated Diane and Steve’s hospitality and knowledge of the area. Breakfast was tasty and plenty.

Dear Dianne and Steven,It was lovely to see you again. Thank you for looking after me for the last three days. Your memorable breakfasts gave me loads of energy!Thank you also for your interest in the project and your feedback. Would love to come again together with my husband to do some cycling and hiking.Best wishes,Esther

Lovely welcome, clean, comfortable, spacious room & bathroom. Comfortable sofa & chairs & a whiskey to relax with!

Such a lovely, warm reception on arrival and throughout our stay, our room had all amenities and was very clean. Breakfast was absolutely gorgeous, we would definitely recommend

We enjoyed our stay at Argyle House, every detail where perfectly handled.

Verry nice host, cosy place, excellent breakfast

Good location, super quiet, breakfast is a feast and host very kind!

Good room. Very welcoming. Breakfast was outstanding. Local produce of high quality. Really tasty. Thank you.

wat een warm ontvangst!! prachtige locatie midden in natuurgebied. verblijf naast whisky castle! mooie grote kamer en prima badkamer. het ontbijt is echt fantastisch. eigen gemaakt brood, cereals met vers fruit en heerlijke yoghurt. ikzelf ben voor full scottisch breakfast gegaan, mijn vrouw had scrambled eggs met zalm. een aanrader dus!!!@

We received the warmest welcome and special touches which made this a home from home stay. Nothing was too much trouble and the hosts had thought of everything to ensure that the accommodation and breakfast was inclusive of people's needs.

The Argyle house is located in the centre of Tomintoul. The host is a very kind and charming lady. The rooms are quite, clean, and spaceous. The breakfast is excellent. There is a whisky bar aside the house and a very good restaurant across the street. We highly recommend this location for exploring the Cairngorms.

Nothing is too much bother for Diane.She greets her guests with customary warmth and humour. The rooms are extremely clean and comfortable and I can't wait to return with my wife to stay in the new, superb-looking suite!Tomintoul so very fortunate to have The Argyle House.

Haste ye back.

Very warm-welcomed from our host. Diane is a very friendly, lovely and kind person. The cooking at breakfast is excellent. Our rooms were clean and very comfortable. We will come back next year and stay longer, of course.

Myself and my partner stayed here for one night! It was a perfect stay and the B&B owner was extremely friendly and met all our needs including an incredible breakfast! Location is also good near a nice restaurant and local pud with a pool table and darts!

I was visiting the area & had booked into the Argyle.After a long days driving it was a welcoming sight & the owner could not have been more hospitable. I was welcomed into the room by a wee dram of local whisky, which exactly what was needed ! I popped to the local pub for a delicious dinner with even more friendly locals ( Hi Karen ! ) I headed back & slept like a log in the very comfy bed. Breakfast was delicious & extremely filling, setting me up for another long day ahead.I used to be an area manager for a national company so I have stayed at numerous hotels etc.The Argyle is a definite must, very warm & friendly owners & all you need in a perfect nights resting stop.

Excellent facilities, spotlessly clean and comfortable, warm welcome.Nothing too much trouble. Would recommend to anyone.

Great location. Lots of places to explore nearby including castles, distilleries, and nature! Loved the feel of the town. Wonderful host and great breakfast!

Loved staying here - large clean room and a great breakfast.

Great room which is light and airy and really cleanCar park is just across the roadLovely cooked breakfast with homemade bread.The hosts local knowledge meant that I changed my plans to pop in and see the suggestions which were great.

Our hostess was very kind and helpful giving away many tips and recommendations about places to visit. We really enjoyed staying at Argyle house.

Comfy bed, a warm welcome & a lovely full Scottish breakfast. Perfect for our one night stay away 💗

Argyle Guest House in Tomintoil is a very nice accompdation. A lovely place to stay with your family. We felt like hallo me, not at least because of Dianne our host. Dianne was a wonderful host. Thanks for everything.

I have been coming to the Argyle Housefor so many years now and it is just like coming home.What could I say more?Thank you Dianne and Steven!!!

Un couple très agréable, souriant, à notre écoute, tres sympathique nous accueille. Le décor est très raffiné et recherché aussi bien pour la chambre que pour la salle à manger. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et très bon et en plus le pain fait maison est délicieux !!! Je le recommande +++

Very friendly, helpful, clean and accommodating an early breakfast for us as hillwalkers

Bij aankomst werden we hartelijk ontvangen. De gastvrouw is vriendelijk en zorgzaam voor haar gasten.

We had an amazing time at Argyle House and I would definitely recommend staying there while travelling in the Cairngorms. The room was comfortable and cosy, and the host was very nice, giving us a lot of advice regarding the surrounding sites and activities.

Lovely bright clean room great shower and wonderful selection for breakfast. Lovely chats with Diane and she was very knowledgeable about things to do in the area.We will be back at some point in the future. Chris and Paul x

Lovely host and great location, only stayed for one night but was a very comfortable and spacious room. Would reccomend.

After some camping nights, was really looking forward to Argyle House. Very welcoming, super comfy bed and perfect breakfast, before setting off on the next days long walk. Would definitely stay here again .

I spent one wonderful night at Argyle House and found it a very welcoming and charming place to stay. The bed was comfortable, the room very nicely decorated and the breakfast was super tasty! The owners were both very friendly and welcoming and the little touches such as leaving treats, a bowl and a towel for my dog were really lovley.

A lovely overnight stay at Argyle House. The room was clean, comfortable and well equipped and the breakfast was very good. I was also informed about how to get a school bus from Tomintoul the following morning and brought breakfast forward to accommodate the early start.

We had a great stay with Diane and Steven in a beautiful newly decorated room. Breakfast was excellent with local produce. Thank you Steven! We enjoyed staying with you. We‘ll definitely recommend the Argyle to our friends.

We had one night at Argyle House and felt very welcome. We had a wonderful and cosy room. The surrounding nature is wonderful. Very good Breakfast in a cosy Room. We enjoyed our stay.

Fabulous, warm & very friendly welcome. Rooms were cosy, clean & well equipped. Breakfast was great and excellent choice ofproduce. Hosts were very welcoming and accommodating to our needs. Child & pet friendly if you have one. In the heart of the town, next to shops, bars & restaurants.Thank you for a lovely welcoming stay, we had a great weekend!

From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed and looked after. Argyle House is extremely comfortable and we both enjoyed the artistic quality of the lovely bedroom. We particularly liked the reception given to our dog, with a bowl, treats and a rug. We all slept very well including Skye! We will certainly be back in the not too distant future.

Room was lovely, great to have a fridge..unexpected bonus, Diane and Steve are excellent host, very welcoming and friendly... Plenty of choice for breakfast, all food well cooked and presented. Tomintoul has a choice of traditional pubs/hotels serving good pub food.There are also some lovely walks nearby, with lots of wildlife to see, as you would expect in the Cairngorm. Will definitely stay again... for longer. Thanks to Diane and Steve, best wishes for the future..

As usual we stayed with Dianne and Steven. We enjoyed the different breakfasts Steven made and the rooms were very comfortable

Perfect; covid-safe, spotlessly clean, welcoming, comfortable, fantastic breakfast - thank you Dianne and SteveX

Very friendly and efficient when dealing with a problem during the booking process, which was caused by a glitch in the new arrangements for online credit transactions.The breakfast was great - and even our request for a ridiculously early breakfast on a Sunday morning was met with a smile.Definitely recommend this place.

Very welcoming and friendly host Nothing to much trouble

Rooms were spotless and well equipped. Beds were comfortable. A good quality hearty breakfast was served each morning. Host was welcoming and well informed about local amenities and attractions.

Lovely guest house with clean and nicely decorated rooms which included cozy dressing gowns. Walking distance to two local hotels with very nice food for the evening. Kids in a separate room but feels very safe. Very kind and considerate host. Homemade bread with a hearty breakfast.

We were given a very warm welcome by the host on arrival. It was a very cold dark evening and Dianne made us feel relaxed and at home. The rooms were cosy, clean and warm and the cooked breakfasts delicious.We were given lots of helpful suggestions of the local area and enjoyed exploring these. It was a most enjoyable stay and a place we would return to. Thank you.

We arrived on a very windy night and found the warmest of welcomes. A very cosy, comfortable stay with a huge and delicious breakfast.Thank you.

Amazing stay at Argyle Guest House: lovely room, very nice welcoming and delicious breakfast

My partner,my kids and myself we all loved our stay. Diana is an amazing host and we enjoyed our breakfast also.We would definitely recommend this place.

I’ve stayed here twice now while working in the village, and have been treated like an old friend both times. Rooms are very nice, clean and well kitted out.Dianne is a lovely host, very welcoming and helpful

Very comfortable stay.Great breakfast. Made welcome by friendly host.Two comfortable easy chairs. Pity about the cloud cover and bright moonlight. So no dark skies!

Lovely spacious well equipped room. Breakfasts were cooked to order both mornings with quality ingredients and were delicious. Freshly baked soda bread was a nice touch. The owner, Diane was very friendly.

Always a pleasure to stay at Argyle House. Very grateful that they offer special rates for ambulance staff brought in from further afield. Looking forward to my next visit.

Nice homely accommodation, lovely warm welcome. Bedroom large and spacious, very comfy bed with beautiful linen. Great breakfast with home made bread. Very friendly hostess.

We had a great one-night stay here. Our host could not have more helpful and welcoming both when we booked and during our stay. The breakfast was exceptional.

Spent the day mountain biking in the rain so Diane’s warm welcome was much appreciated,as were the newspaper and old towels for our wet and muddy things.Room 3 has the best hot shower and breakfast was top notch as always.

We stayed in the family room for two nights. You honestly couldn’t wish for better hosts. Diane is incredibly warm and welcoming. Stephen’s breakfasts cater for everyone. There are vegetarian and vegan options which being the former I felt there was a great range for me. The homemade bread was a lovely touch. The family room is very spacious and comfortable. The en-suite is huge! The sky park up the road was a wonderful addition to visit in the evening. We will definitely return again. Many thanks!

Great room, location, owners and breakfast.10/10, recommended

Very friendly, thoughtful hosts, comfortable rooms and the most delicious breakfasts made for a very enjoyable stay.

Great place to stay, Diane was very welcoming and friendly. Room was large and comfortable. Great choice for breakfast which was lovely.

Absolutely perfect host in Diane. Spotless,great made to order breakfast would definitely stay here again if in the area.

Excellent venue for friendly, competitive prices, no nonsense Bed and Breakfast. The hosts cannot do enough for you to make your stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible. I would stay again and would recommend to anyone.

A lovely comfortable night was spent at Argyle House. Lovely welcome from the owner, Covid secure, peaceful night, great shower, fabulous breakfast - the best porridge I have tasted for years - and really I could not have asked for more. Thank you so much.

Comfortable, clean spacious family room with a large ensuite bathroom with a lovely breakfast, host was a lovely lady called Diane

Hey great stay at the Argyle in Tomintoul on our cycle trip.Right in the heart of the town and great places to eat and drink just yards from the door.And with 26 Degrees C and clear blue skies what more could you want ?Dianne and Steve great hosts looked after all our needs, great breakfast and very welcoming in their lovely hotel.

Host (Diana) was very welcoming.Room was quaint but had all essentials neededBreakfast was lovely, soda bread divineOnly negative was mattress very uncomfortable and didn't get a good night's sleep

The room was a family size but we only needed the two singles.It was large, spacious and comfy. The ensuite bathroom was very large with two helpful chairs.Host was friendly and provided an excellent breakfast with lots of choices.Location is very central.Mfy

What a great place to stay, friendly people with big rooms, in a lovely village with nice shops and a pub. Could want for nothing more.

Very welcoming and spacious room

Lovely place, hosts were wonderful, nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious, would highly recommend

Booked for one night. The check in was quick.Family room was big and cosy. . We had requested vegetarian option and the breakfast was brilliant. HAve few options for Dinner in the village itself. Overall highly recommeneded

Fantastic stay at the guest house, Diane was very welcoming. Comfy room, very good breakfast, great surroundings

Loved the Argyle B&B. Very welcoming greeting from the lovely Diane. Spacious room, very clean and large bathroom. Fabulous breakfast with home made bread. Nothing was too much trouble. I had the veggie breakfast but am mot a vegetarian and it was delicious. Tomintoul is a delightful litte town and I would stay here again. Also thank you to Diane for her kind donation to our walkers for their Mental Health charity.

We stayed in the Argyle for 1 night walking the Speyside Way(Tomintoul Spur ) during covid level 0 all precautions were in place sanitisers , wearing face mask whilst moving aroundetc . The guest house was perfect for our needs, nice clean comfy bedroom en suit bathroom shower .The bedroom was spacious with TV kettle etc . Breakfast was a continental ...more than we could eat .Had our evening meal + beers in the Glen Avon good pub food .

We only stayed the one night, but will definitely stay again. The welcome was very warm and our two dogs were treated like part of the family. The room was comfortable and clean, had everything we needed and there was even a towel and a welcome treat for the dogs. We got our continental breakfast delivered to our door, and it was amazing, and of course had dog treats for their breakfast too! Our host was lovely and gave us some info on where to eat and where to walk the dogs, the village square was a two minute walk up the street. It really is a lovely place to stay and we will visit again for sure.

This very comfortable and welcoming Guest house is situated in the centre of Tomintoul opposite a free car park and a few steps from good restaurants. Our beds were comfortable, the shower was efficient and breakfast was really nice with the best croissants I have tasted in Scotland.

A warm welcome at the door and a very pleasant stay.

We had a very comfortable stay at Argyle House, super friendly hosts who were so accommodating - thank you Diane! Clean and spacious family room, dog friendly too and a wonderful spread for breakfast. We were very spoilt!

Very welcoming, a lovely room and great breakfast. Tomintoul is a lovely village.

The guest house was lovely. The hosts very friendly and amendable. We were in room 7 which has its own outside access and private parking space which was perfect as we had 2 dogs with us. The continental breakfast was very good and also came with some doggy treats every morning. My only criticism is that there was very little storage space for luggage etc

Lovely old building with well presented and spacious room. With welcoming and friendly owners who can do enough to make your stay pleasant and enjoyable.I would say it’s the best B&B I have stayed in.The village it’s self is welcoming and a pleasure to visit.I will definitely be back and can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great place to stay it was comfortable and very clean and tidy also the owners Diane and Steven were the perfect hosts. They are also dog friendly as to why I chose here as we always travel with our dog.

Although this is an older property and has been touched up in one or two places, it was spotlessly clean, fresh and welcoming.Our hostess was very welcoming without being over the top or intrusive.Our room was very comfortable and very well supplied.Breakfast was great.We couldn’t have asked for more and would gladly return.

Thanks for a friendly welcome and a lovely room for the night.Location is great, right in the middle of Tomintoul, very well appointed room, decoration all looks very modern and well kept.AMAZING power shower - maybe the most powerful hotel shower I've ever used!Continental tray service for breakfast due to covid restrictions was fine.Slightly noisy road outside, may be a problem if you're a light sleeper - but that's the same with everywhere on the main street.Definitely would recommend.

We so enjoyed our stay.Dianne gave us a very warm welcome. Lovely rooms with comfortable beds and a delicious breakfast.We would definitely recommend Argyle House.

I enjoyed a lovely stay in this ideally located guest house. The room was perfect with a very comfortable bed. The bathroom was spacious and I enjoyed a lovely power shower. The owners were very friendly and courteous and were highly professional throughout my stay. The continental breakfast was superb, one of the best I have ever experienced and it was brought to the room due to covid restrictions. A first class guest house.

Stayed just one night but the rooms were comfortable, quiet and clean. The hostess was a pleasure to talk to. The pup is so cute.

This is a fabulous little guest house. The owners are really lovely, friendly people. The rooms are beautifully done and breakfast is superb - warmed croissants, fruit, yoghurt, meats and cheeses, just what you need in the morning.I was cycling and had a mechanical issue and the owners went out of their way to help and ended up being able to accommodate me for an extra night.

Arrived in the rain to a warm welcome.Comfortable room, lovely hot shower, comfy bed, and a chance to dry out.Enjoyed a good meal at the Clockhouse just over the road.Lovely breakfast and a generous invitation to take what we didn't eat away with us - much enjoyed later in the day. Thanks to Dianne and Steve for shelter from the storm.

I don't think you could get better hosts than diane and Steven so accommodating this was our third stay and throughly enjoyed our stay

We loved our stay. We’ve been travelling for a few days and really did appreciate the contrast from depersonalised hotels that herd you in and out like sheep to this lovely little spot where we were met with personal touches, friendly conversation, and a comfortable and quiet evening in our clean and well maintained room. The town is so small and even so, we were able to have an amazing dinner at the clockhouse just across the way and an evening stroll with sunset lighting and rural cairgorms views. We both expected this stop to be more out of convenience for the rest of our trip, but upon reflection we agree that this stay was a highlight. Wonderful place !

Clean, tastefully decorated homely B+B in a fantastic location. Close to all key attractions//places to see. Diane is a very attentive and friendly host. She has created a fantastic place. We will definitely come back.

Very good as always

Nice, clean room.such a nice touch to have a welcome drink in our room.

We really enjoyed our stay, our hosts were wonderful and friendly!The room was really spacious and clean. Lovely stay and will definitely stay again if in the area

We had a really lovely and warm stay in the Argyle House B&B.The room was cozy and clean, the breakfast delicious and with lot of choices and the owner welcomed us with a big heart and interesting conversations.I'm more than thankful to found such a great place on my travel. It was a kind, special and wonderful experience.Thanks a lot!

We have spent 3 nights at Argyle House, which is located in a very quiet village(make sure you have a whisky tasting session at the local pub ???? friendly staff and good service)The building is on a "main street "but nobody should worry about the traffic noise because there isn't t any.Diane is a very helpful host and she prepsyummy breakfast (even the dog got some treats)All together we ve had a lovely time and we would happily go back .

With my partner and our dog Sherlock, we stayed for one night and it was absolutely lovely! Great location in Tomintoul, great staff, great room and great breakfast! We recommend this place and we'll be more than happy to go back! :)

What a relaxing stay we had here. Diane the host is so open- mindedperson , so pleased to meet her and to chat with her. Unlikely to the chain hotels where everything is pretty the same - Argyle House is exceptional, the decor shows the attention to details and the great taste of the owner. The village is lovely and very peaceful and the food was of the top quality at Clock house restaurant nearby. Hope to be back soon.

Granny D was very friendly and helpful, the location is great and quiet but easy to drive to other villages etc. Beds are very comfortable ,breakfast is good, there is a car park opposite the B&B so plenty of space, I recommend this place if you want to stay in the area! Also pet friendly but clean!

Very nice stay. Our host was lovely. Very comfy bed in tastefully decorated room.

What a gem of a place, absolutely spotless and Diane couldn't do more for us. Great place to stay in a beautiful little friendly village

Me and a couple of mates was doing the NC500 and this was one of our stop over. Great nice

Hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. We were cycling through so our only regret was not spending enough time there. Breakfast amazing and the room very comfortable and spacious. Thank you

Cannot recommend the Argyle Guest house more. Dianne was so accommodating to our one night stay and couldn’t have been more helpful. We stayed in a double room which was beautifully decorated - and even had lovely fluffy dressing gowns to relax in! Will definitely be staying here again. Thanks for a wonderful, relaxing evening at your guest house.

Brilliant people very naive place to stay

Dianne was lovely from the start. Very accommodating, we felt welcome, we felt comfortable and relaxed, and we felt safe. Breakfast was a fab continental style, and my kids were in their element sampling everything possible. My kids slept better and longer than ever. Dianne was kind and we appreciate our night here. Our only downside is we couldn't stay for longer.

I stayed in this lovely guesthouse for 4 nights as I was taking a kind of spiritual retreat up in the highlands. All I can say is that has been absolutely lovely to have stayed there. The room was much better that I was expecting, the bed was very comfy and the room was warm and cozy (with plenty of coffe and tea!). Toilet was also very clean, tidy and fully packed with everything you could need.I received a very warm, familiar welcoming when I got there and Dianne is just the loveliest woman I've met so far. She's been looking after me during my staying, she offered me advices around the area (the wood walk is fantastic!) and she's been keeping an eye in case I needed anything else.The breakfast was GREAT -continental breakfast, with plenty of different options, and she even gave me soya milk because my stomach is a bit sensitive with milk!!- and always at the perfect time.I will defenitely come back whenever I need another spiritual retreat! If you are looking for some quiet and peaceful place, this is the one! There are many walks to do around, the coffe shop is absolutely lovely and all the people who lives there are very friendly and nice.Thank you very, very much for everything!

Di and Stephen couldn’t be more accommodating- we arrived with a dog that had been ill on the journey up and Di immediately offered to wash towels, provide alternative blankets etc. Breakfast was perfect in spite of Covid restrictions as the property is in a great location for exploring all that the Cairngorms had to offer. Highly recommended!

It's always good to have a reason to stay at Argyle House.This time we had cycled across the hills from Ballater, so were freezing cold and soaking wet when we got there.Bikes were instantly locked in the secure storage and newspapers and old towels were waiting so that we could sort out our sodden and muddy clothing.The "Stag Room" was beautiful and really well supplied with hot drinks.More importantly, it was warm and we made good use of the fluffy dressing gowns provided.We knew that Covid restrictions meant that we couldn't have our usual amazing cooked breakfast, but Dianne and Steve didn't let that prevent them from providing a fantastic feast, delivered to the door.Selection of juice, eggs, cooked meats, cheese, rolls, pastries, yoghurt, croissants, fresh fruit (two kinds of melon, strawberries, grapes and blueberries!)fuelled us well for our next leg!Dianne and Steve are fantastic hosts and we can highly recommend a stay.

Our stay was very pleasant diane and husband were very welcoming we had everything we needed we will definitely be staying again thankyou

Good sized basic twin bedroom with basin and table and chairs and coffee tea making stuff,table and chairs. Shared bathroom with shower bath ( no one else shared). No other guest house space just your room, although family room could use Downstairs dining room due to Covid sitiation.Nice village with lots of stone cottages andpub and shops. Lovely countryside. Lovely good quality continental breakfast brought to bedroom. lovely ham and cheese, croissant, warmed rolls, fresh fruit eg melon choice and strawberries and grapes, jams, yoghurt, apple juice. free parking nearby. Comfortable bed. Next to very good gift shop and whisky shop. 22 miles to Balmoral Castle. very good price paid for 1 person in twin about £38/ night so worth it. good for the price.

We had a lovely stay at Argyle House. The room was very comfortable and all Covid procedures were clear and well thought out. The continental breakfast left outside our door each morning were huge and delicious!

The room was spacious and well appointed.The continental breakfast was generous with variousfoods to suit all tastes,all served in the room.

Small cosie guest house in middle of village next to a choice of restaurants. All the travellers needs thoughtfully provided . Fresh milk for tea , cafetière with fresh coffee and an excellentbeautifully presented continental breakfast. Warm and friendly hostesss

A fantastic couple of nights away in Tomintoul and blessed with brilliant weather also.Dianne could not do enough to help us, from great communication at point of booking and flexibility to accommodate us to providing a packed breakfast/lunch for an early start, including dog treats for our dogs.Clean, spacious, thoughtfully equipped - with a fresh coffee filter machine - we loved the Stag Room and would readily go back. An ideal location for walking the Lairig Ghru.

Everything on my Scotland road trip so far has been last minute - finding a place to stay in the Cairngorms was no exception. 99% of the places were already fully booked, so I opted for the highest-rated of the remaining ones. And believe me, when I say, I couldn´t have found a better place if I tried. Here are five reasons why the Argyle House was the best B&B I have ever stayed in:- A very warm welcome from the host Dianne, she went through all the safety measures (due to Covid), asked me about breakfast preferences (as I am vegan) and gave me recommendations as to where to eat out.- The room was super cute: they actually just re-did some interior and the individual touches and colours are just wonderful.- Everything is veeery spacious and clean: the room itself had a small coffee table + 2 chairs, a cupboard with TV and tea station, a sink, closet, and twin beds. The bathroom is also very big (usually shared among guests, due to Covid I had 1 for myself).- The breakfast came with a big variety of food. I can´t speak for the usual Continental Breakfast, but my vegan options included porridge with oat milk, fresh fruit platter, bread or bun, margarine, several jams, cookies and tea/coffee. I had more than enough for breakfast and bringing a snack with me while exploring.- The location is just great. Tomintoul is a cute little town with basically just one street. One day I took a lovely walk up the hill and the other day I drove to the Balmoral Castle and Braemar to hike the Morrone.I will definitely recommend it to my friends if they ever come to Scotland :)Thanks, Dianne and Steven for the lovely stay.

Arriving after a rainy day in Speyside we were greeted by the warm and friendly Diane who offered us a room with an ensuite bathroom and bath. It was music to our ears and we enjoyed a really nice comfortable stay at this guest house. The beds were comfy, the room was cosy, vkwan and very nicely decorated. We had a tasty continental breakfast in the morning. Despite the situation with covid, Diane made every effort to ensure we felt safe and secure in our stay, with a high level of cleanliness and biosecure measure. Would recommend to anyone, even anyone worried about their vulnerability to covid as this place was very covid-secure.

Excellent value for money. Great communication from Dianne. Breakfast was very substantial and delivered on a tray and left outside our bedroom door. Nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely stay again. Also highly recommend the whisky castle shop and gift shops next door.

Very polite hosting, cosy and clean room and bath.Breakfast in the room with love prepaired.Would come again for sure.

We feel so good when we stay at Argyle house, as usual. The rooms are very clean and the breakfast is excellent. The Cairngorms are beautiful.

We received a warm welcome.The room was beautiful, we had a good night, the breakfast was excellent.We enjoyed our stay!

My son and I had cycled some 50 miles and Argyle House provided a very comfortable room and beds for a good night's sleep. The highlight was our specially requested vegan breakfast - the porridge was the best ever and fuelled us for our next 50 miles!We felt confident that our hosts took every precaution to minimise the Covid risk.

I was warmly welcomed by Dianne at check in and immediately felt relaxed. I was especially impressed with my continental breakfast next morning.So much to choose from with a good selection of cold meats, cheeses, petit pan, croissant and brioche, juices and fruit. AND a lovely boiled egg!The coffee was freshly brewed (no packet stuff!) The room was charming and very clean. The bed was really comfortable and cosy.I was also impressed at how the owners are dealing with guests during the pandemic. They are adhering to all the guidelines advised by the Scottish Government at the same time helping you to feel comfortable.I will most certainly stay here again on my next trip to The Highlands and would highly recommend Argyle House to others.

Everything was magic. Lovely decor, comfy beds, luxurious towels and bathrobes, proper coffee....Breakfast tray was also wonderful, everything fresh and delicious. We really loved our stay and were gutted to only be staying one night. Thank you Dianne and Steven and lang may yer lums reek!

Very welcoming for us as a couple, daughter and Georgie our collie. Excellent breakfast set us on our way. We would definitely return here if we are again in the district.

Lovely place; clean; comfy bed; helpful owners; pictures, paintings and models of stags absolutely everywhere add to the Highland atmosphere.

Argyle House is easy to find, with convient parking across the street. The house is cozy and comfortable. Dianne is so warm and welcoming. It felt like being greeted by a friend! The bed was very comfortable and the room clean. Great shower. We will absolutely stay here again!

clean room, good breakfasts and welcoming hosts we had a pleasant and enjoyable stay in scenic surroundings. Would stay again.

excellant facilities would definately go back

We have three lovely comfy nights. Nice warm homely house, where our dog was made very welcome too. Breakfast was delicious with many choices. Diane is very friendly and welcoming, running a very good business. Nice village with lovely people. 10/10 Argyle House, we highly recommend

Great stay with wonderful hosts

Very warm welcome and suite room 7 lovely.Snow outside, however, warm as toast inside.Breakfast was what you asked for and served with freshly baked bread.Host bi-lingual and knowledgeable of places to visit and enjoy.Recommended and enjoy!The whisky shop next door is also recommended!!

The breakfasts were lovely with a great choice available. The room was clean, spacious and well decorated with a powerful shower in the en-suite. Diane was really helpful, providing us with lots of local knowledge which was especially useful when stormy weather conditions hit the area.

As above

Really enjoyed our stay at the Argyle Guest House, loved exploring the surrounding area in the cairngorms, but Dianne was so welcoming we both would defininately go back

Our New Year break with Dianne and Steven was just perfect. Dianne welcomed us, after a long journey through the wind and rain, with such warm and care. Her energy and attention to detail didn't falter once during our entire stay. She really seemed to care about the welfare and comfort of her guests.The breakfasts were glorious (Steven's homemade soda bread was so delicious).We'll be back in summer for another stay. Thank you both so much.

We had a great time at argyle house, the breakfast far exceeded our expectations and Diane was lovely always happy to help with ideas of what to do and where ti go all throughout the local area. Would definitely recommend people stay here if they are after a peaceful time in the Cairngorms.

What a little gem of a find this charming and cosy guesthouse is. Booked last minute and after a 10 hour round trip, Argyle House provided the comfort and relaxation we desperately needed for one night before we headed onward to Glasgow. The owner, Diane, was beyond welcoming and helpful, even upgrading our room at no extra charge. After a long Xmas break of travelling, we headed to bed early and slept like logs, to be greeted with a lovely full Scottish breakfast with delightful homemade fresh soda bread the next morning. Would not hesitate to recommend and would stay again in a heartbeat. Only regret was our stay was one night only. Could have stayed much longer in this beautiful guesthouse and delightful village and countryside.

We travelled with an autistic child and felt very welcome. The room was clean, comfortable and a good size. Breakfast was excellent every morning. We would stay again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend this lovely guesthouse.

First time in the area but it won't be the last and thisplace will also see us again.Argyle House is perfectly situated and hosted by the wonderful Dianne and Steve who made us so welcome.

Had a lovely stay at Argyle House, very comfortable bed and wonderful newly-decorated room and Dianne is a superb host who made us feel at home right away. The only thing we would change is to stay for longer! Will definitely be back!

Very friendly host who does everything to make you feel at home instantly.

The room was cozy, beautiful, well equipped and sparkling clean, just like the rest of the house.In the shower, unlike in most british bathrooms, the water pressure was high enough and the eater hot enough!!!THe breakfast was simply: AMAZING. I have a difficult diet, but Dianne made a wonderful and very filling meal for me. And she was welcoming, kind and caring.All together: great great great experience!

A last minute decision to take the motorbike to the Cairngorms for the weekend led us to Argyle House where we arrived, frozen to the bone, to a very warm welcome. The bed was super comfy and like sleeping in a cosy nest. All exceptionally clean and well prepared. Breakfast was absolutely brilliant - cereals, yoghurt, fruit , freshly home-baked soda bread still warm from the oven, and a good choice of cooked to order plates. Thank you for warming us up and setting us up for the journey home with such a great breakfast.

Dianne, You truly exceeded all our expectations. Cousin Abby said you were wonderful and she was so right. We loved our room, our breakfasts, your advice and direction regarding the Cairngorms, eating places and your warm reception. We feel that we have a new friend and already want to return to visit. Cabell and Marion

Walking the Speyside Way we have enjoyed staying in Argyle Kouse a lot. It was comfortable, berakfast was delicious and the hosts lovely. We'd like to return!

Lovely guest house and warm hostess.The breakfast meal was delicious.The room was spacious.The bed was fine.

We stayed in Argyle B & B while passing through the Cairngorms.We only stayed for one night, wish we had stayed for 2.Diane is amazing and made us feel right at home.The three bed room was very clean and comfortable.The breakfast was delicious.Would go back there again.

Dianne was a terrific host! The room was lovely, clean, and spacious - perfect for a family of four.

Great value and so helpful when I messed up the booking.Lovely room.We hope to visit again

Enjoyed another wonderful stay in Tomintoul at the Argyle. Perfect location, wonderful breakfast, spacious rooms. Dianne and Steven are so welcoming, really just the perfect hosts. Thank you!

We enjoyed our visit in Agryle House. Dianne was very friendly, cordial and accommodating. Her husband Steven made the best bread of the world.We are very confident and happy and would visit the Agryle House again.Thank you for everything.With kind regardsMarco and Peggy

Lovely room, very friendly host with a husband who brought us the love for porridge, in a quiet pretty town, in a beautiful part of their country. What else does a tourist need??!

Lovely room, very friendly and helpful host and great breakfast, especially the porridge! Our dog loved it too! Thank you!We know where to stay next time we are in Tomintoul.Thank you!

My Daughter stayed here while we were visiting Cairngorm National Park. Great location, good room, large ensuite bathroom and very nice hostess.

Very nice B&B.Pleased with the facilities and breakfast.Check in and out were easy.Small village with a few shops for snacks and a good size liquor store.Large, free lotparking across the streetThe hostess was very kind and helpful.The satellite TV channels were in and out that was the only disappointment given there’s not much to do at night given the rural location.

The host was so lovely, she kindly helped us in the evening with extra milk and bowls for my cereal. Breakfast was phenomenal.

Had a fantastic stay, room was clean, and we were greeted wonderfully by Diane. Best stay we had in 8 days in Scotland!

Excellent accueil, bonnes indications pour une balade autour du village et pour manger le soir , bon confort, petit déjeuner au top , et - last but not least - une impression de se sentir dans sa propre maison de vacances, que l'on a beaucoup apprécié !

We stayed at Argyle house for the second time and everything was perfect as usual.The breakfast was excellent too. We really hope to stay again another time. Thanks a lot.

Beautiful family room, very well decorated and equipped (TV, kettle, towels provided, ...).Exceptional hearty breakfast (choice according to taste among different proposals)Very nice host, who even made the effort to learn the formulas of welcome and goodbye in the languages ​​of people hosted!

Every year a wonderful stay. Dianne and Steve take of everything! Look forward to next year again.

Thanks to Dianne for her hospitality and a great couple of days this is the third time we have stayed at the Argyle Guest house and we hope to get back soon

We enjoy staying in argyle house, it was a lovely experience for us. The breakfast was lovely. Thank you very much for the hospitality.

We came for one night and stayed 4. Dianne is very friendly and helpful, the rooms are comfortable and Breakfast is Excellent. Very good value for money.

Diane is very welcoming. Nice large room for the whole family. Very quiet and confortable. I would recommand this placeThanks again

We had a very brief but enjoyable stay. Warmly welcomed we were shown to the family room which was outside at the side of the building. This was perfect as we were going to visit friends and although we weren’t late back it was nice to have our own front door.The room itself was very spacious and tastefully furnished. Tea and coffee making facilities and private bathroom as one would expect. Dianne provides us with cereal and a vacuum jug of milk as we had to leave before breakfast in the morning. Sad to have missed the proper breakfast as it sounds like one of the highlights of the stay.Would definitely stay again and have recommended to our friends if they have visitors.

The room was fine we had the family room a bit noisy as next to the street but not much traffic.

Absolutely loved it lovely room, fantastic breakfast and lovely friendly helpful owner.

All good! Very happy.

Het was hier geweldig. Bedankt Dianne voor alles. Ze is erg behulpzaam, en een heel goed ontbijt

We arrived soaked through by bike and were immediately looked after with extra towels and assistance drying our clothes.Amazing breakfast in the morning with homemade bread

Dianne was a wonderful host. Very knowledgeable about the area with for us on what to do. Took her suggestions and had a great day. Our room was very comfortable with everything we needed and more. Breakfast was the best part. Sooo good! The homemade bread was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our cooked breakfasts. If we ever go back to Scotland, we will return to Argyle Guest House and stay for more than one night.

Great location when touring the Speyside Distilleries, extremely clean, spacious rooms, comfortable mattresses, they have 6 rooms.The host of the house is ever so welcoming and helpful. They make a great homemade porridge for beakfast.Be sure to reach Toumatin before 8pm to be able to get something to eat in the area around. For all whisky lovers, they have the famous century old whishky castle right next doors so do keep an hour to browse this place and buy your favorite bottle.Will definitely be back.

Nice and clean room. Good location within the vilage. Friendly peaople.

Die Lage ist sehr schön - hübscher, kleiner Ort mit mehreren Restaurants, 1 Std nach Inverness oder zur Nordsee und viele andere Sehenswürdigkeiten in der Nähe.Auch zum Wandern perfekt.Wir hatten 2 große, saubere und liebevoll eingerichtete Zimmer.Das Frühstück ist absolut fantastisch. Man hat die Wahl zwischen verschiedenen Eivariationen, Waffeln, Porridge und selbstgebackenem Brot, Quark mit Obst...Am meisten waren wir beeindruckt von der Herzlichkeit der Gastgeber.Wenn wir wieder nach Schottland fahren,dann wieder hierher :-)

Excellent location and warm welcome from the hosts who did everything to cater for our young family. Thank you very much and good breakfast too.

We were very pleased with our room.It was large and comfortable with little extras that other places often lack.(i.e. a rack for your suitcase , 2 chairs, good quality toiletries.). Breakfast was delicious with a large selection to choose from.And Dianne was friendly and helpful.She does a great job.

It was a very pleasant stay. We have been received friendly and have got many tips for Tomintoul. Because of our early departure the breakfast was served to us earlier than usual ones. The room was big and clean. The house is nicely furnished.

The Argyle House is a nostalgic Bed & Breakfast that emphasizes the atmosphere of the area. The owners are friendly and helpfull, you feel very welcome!

Couldn't have been more welcoming to a pair of drenched cyclists. Lovely room and great breakfast, with lots of options.

Very nice B&B and host. The room is just as described and huge! The breakfast choice and quality was great. Can recommend!

Diane was exceptional! A wonderful host and a great person. This was one of the best experiences at a guesthouse we have had. Very clean and comfortable with a great breakfast. We would recommend the Argyle house to everyone.

This was our first visit to Tomintoul and Argyle House but it won’t be our last.We found the village and locals to be charming and cheerful.Our host Dianne was most warm, friendly and caring person, ensuring our stay was comfortable and relaxing. The breakfast, cooked by Dianne’s husband was superb.Our rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable with everything we needed for an enjoyable 3 days.Many thanks

Everything was fine for our short stay in Tomintoul

A lovley stay in Tomintoul! We got a warm welcom when we arrived.Great breakfast with several gluten free options!

Great as always clean friendly helpful and good breakfast all the best

What a stunning guest house, wonderful welcome, magnificent breakfast, excellent attention to detail in an interesting and quirky house of historic significance. We loved it and definitely will be back.

Dear Diane, Thank you so much for everything. I really appreciated you letting us in earlier than expected and putting on the heating especially for us. Breakfast was great and I enjoyed your husbands bread.

A very comfortable stay at Argyll House in Tomintoul. Breakfast was delicious and the owners very polite and accomodating. We would recommend this cosy B&B.

Fourth visit I think. very good value for money especially the excellent breakfasts.Exceptionally clean, tastefully decorated and a guest house with heart.

Hier passt einfach alles. Die Gastgeberin ist sehr freundlich und gibt gerne Tipps was man sich noch so anschauen kann.Die Zimmer sind sauber, die Betten bequem.Das Frühstück war der Hammer. Full Scottish Breakfast mit einem selbstgebackenen noch warmen Brot. Klasse. Jederzeit gerne wieder!

Very nice spacious room. Friendly service. Breakfast was delicious. Location was great. Plenty of walks near the hotel.

We stayed at the Argyle Guest house for two nights (16/17th March 2019).Dianne was so helpful on the phone prior to our visit and welcomed us warmly when we arrived after a very snowy drive from Inverness airport!Our twin room had everything we needed for our stay.Breakfast was delicious!When we mentioned to anyone in the village that we were staying here they all mentioned the great breakfast!!Tomintoul is a lovely little village, a few nice shops, selling good quality items.Enough pubs/restaurants to enjoy an evening meal.The A939 was closed on our first morning, so driving to Balmoral/Braemar would prove difficult, but Dianne gave us excellent directions for the detour, which took 2 hours, but beautiful scenery!We will definitely return if we travel that way again.

We loved our stay at Argyle House. Breakfast was so delicious! We are defenitly coming back.

Great location and very friendly staff. Breakfast was good and room clean and comfortable.

With a friendly welcome you feel that you've come to the right place. A clean smart room with a comfy bed doesn't let down that welcome. With a good breakfast served in the same friendly manor. I would be happy to recommend Stephen and Diane at Ardyle House to anyone.p.s. I think "lonely Planet" may well be right about the oats

We enjoyed our stay and everything was perfect. The host was so friendly and lovely. Breakfast was amazing! Great location. Thank you!

I received a lovely welcome from Diane. The room was clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was lovely. Would definitely stay again.

A lovely find in a super part of Scotland. Diane and Steve were very accommodating and helpful with local knowledge.We thoroughly enjoyed our (all to brief) stay with them at Argyle House

Fantastic Room, Super Breakfast and Perfect Location.

We had a lovely one night stay at argyle housein tomuntoul, the room was cozy, the welcome warm and the breakfast delicious. There was fresh home made bread (still warm!) In the morning and the host was very welcoming and informative about the area. Highly recommended!

Nice hotel, good beds, fine breakfast, very friendly host.If it happens that we want to stay again in Tomintoul we wil stay again in Argyll House.

after the whole day walking I arrived at the Argyle Guest House to be welcomed by the owner, I knew I had booked a great place right away. This was confirmed when I saw the room great value for money attention to detail this is the place to stay if you are visiting Tomintoul.

Amazing place, delicious food and friendly atmosphere.

Das Argyle guesthouse hat grossen Charme und uns unglaublich gut gefallen. Hier stimmt alles, die Location, der Komfort, das Frühstück und die Herzlichkeit der Gastgeberin.Tomintoul ist ein ruhiger, wunderschöner kleiner Ort in den Highlands und wir würden auf jeden Fall wieder hier übernachten. Danke an Dianne

Very nice suite room with a huge bathroom.The breakfast is very good as well

Had a very nice stay. Super friendly and excellent breakfast

Argyle House is a little gem. Sparklingly clean with the best breakfast. Something for everyone. As a vegetarian the choice is so much more imaginative than the Scottish breakfast without meat :-)Friendly from beginning to end. Great value for money in a lovely village.Dr Linda Jones

Buon soggiorno in questo bel paesino.proprietaria gentilissima e ottima colazione

We recieved a very warm welcone when we arrived at Argyle House.The bedroom was clean and the shower was powerful, which made us very happy.The breakfast was really good.

We had such a nice time. Our room was perfectly fine and Dianne was the best host we could wish for. We decided to stay longer, because she was just adorable.By the way: coffee is 10 out of 10 ;-)

Our room was fairly basic but clean & comfortable. Shared bathroom but the facilities were great and very spacious.Fantastic owner( Diane) who was so friendly, helpful and kind to us & our little dog.Lovely breakfast, thankyou we had a great time & would love to come back.

Top! Sehr freundlich und sauber. Tolles Frühstück von einer tollen Gastgeberin.

Gemütliches B&B mit einer sehr netten Gastgeberin.Das Zimmer (mit zwei Einzelbetten) war groß genug und sauber, genauso wie das Gemeinschaftsbad.Beim Frühstück kam jeder - je nach Präferenz - auf seinen Geschmack.
