Ardeonaig Hotel & Restaurant

While it started life a few hundred years ago as a drover’s inn on the southern shore of Loch Tay, Ardeonaig didn’t become a hotel until 1915.

Back then, it was called The Ardeonaig Temperance Hotel as no alcohol was allowed or served on the premises.

Times have changed and these days Ardeonaig is known as a comfortable, welcoming hotel which is set amongst some of the most beautiful scenery in Europe.

They also have a fine cellar.

Drink in the Ardeonaig experience with today’s Big Deal on an overnight stay at this very special hotel.

Spectacular, convenient location

Recently refurbished, Ardeonaig Hotel is under a two hour drive from Glasgow or Edinburgh yet feels a million miles away from the pressures of modern life.

Offering peace, tranquillity and luxury, it sits in ten acres of garden with commanding views straight over Loch Tay to the spectacular, snow-capped Lawers mountain range.

While travellers have rested at Ardeonaig since 1640, and the oldest parts of the main building date from that time, it combines this historical character with cosy, contemporary comforts.

Choice of rooms

Available seven days a week, with supplements for Saturday night stays, this Big Deal has two options. Both options include a two course dinner and a continental or full Scottish breakfast.

Option one is for two people to have a one night stay in a Standard, Classic, Loch or Garden View room. Option two is for two people to have an overnight stay in a Garden Bothy or Garden Cottage which are separate from the main hotel and are more spacious.

All guest bedrooms have been finished to an exacting high standard, with luxurious linens, contemporary decor and lavishly appointed bathrooms.

Guests can look forward to high class Scottish toiletries, a complimentary hospitality tray providing tea and freshly ground coffee facilities plus locally made snacks.

Scottish produce

A two courses dinner from the talented team in the Ardeonaig kitchens is included for all guests. Loch Tay sits at the heart of an extraordinary natural larder and the chefs make good use of it. Wild game, fresh fish and organically-farmed meat is locally sourced and used on the seasonal menus.

A continental or full Scottish breakfast is also included in this Big Deal.

See & do

As well as a plethora of countryside walks, there are numerous golf courses in the area; fantastic fishing opportunities; watersports at Taymouth Marina and attractions such as Dewar’s Aberfeldy Distillery, Pitlochry Hydroelectric Dam and Fish Ladder plus the Scottish Crannog Centre.

‘Lovely stay. I can thoroughly recommend a stay at this hotel. The location is spectacular, the service is excellent and the staff friendly and efficient. We had a lovely meal in the restaurant and there’s also a small cosy bar with an interesting selection of gins and vodkas. The hotel loaned us a couple of bikes for the day too. If you’re looking for some peace and quiet and a relaxing atmosphere you can’t go far wrong with Ardeonaig.’
