This is a beautiful old home that has been returned to life by the owners Carolyn and Mike for a B&B business. Our room was named Amelia and it was very comfortable and importantly, warm. A large ensuite bathroom with a shower over the bath was quite adequate. Very pleasant and helpful owners and overall we'd say good value.

Ormiston House is a magnificent home which Carolyn and Mike have lovingly restored. It is in a great location and has a museum upstairs detailing the interesting history of the property. Our hosts were warm, friendly and professional even when we arrived a tad early Carolyn treated us with freshly made raspberry muffins and a cuppa. Our room was very... More

We stayed for just one night at Ormiston but Carolyn looked after us regally. We had muffins on arrival, were given lots of useful information (including The Ship that never was - go and see it!), restaurant recommendations, driving directions for the next day etc. The house is an historic beauty. lovingly restored. Our room was beautiful as was breakfast... More

We stayed here in early April and had a lovely relaxing time. We found our hosts Carolyn and Mike to be extremely helpful and warm people. Nothing was too much trouble for them. How sweet to be offered some delicious homemade muffins whilst we settled into our room and again when departing - as well as a surprise postcard waiting... More

poor breakfast- very limited items-place is ready to be updated- rather tired interiors-overpriced for what it is-never saw a soul in the bar area for at least an hour whilst we read books displayed. until up popped some strange bloke to ask did we need a drink. so that area needs improvement. got the feeling the place was just coasting...

We were greeted with a genuinely warm welcome by Caroline, compete with tea, coffee and raspberry muffins, freshly made. The attention to detail in this historic home is amazing, from the period furniture right down to the silver tea strainer at the breakfast table. The owners have gone to great lengths to help the traveller enjoy every aspect of thier... More

We stayed at Ormiston House for our one day in Strahan. It was by sheer chance since we were there on Labor Day and took the only accommodation left. What luck! This house is one of the original Strahan mansions and has been lovingly restored by the current owners. You had the feeling of stepping back into the 19th Century,... More
