"My husband and I stayed at Tormarton Court over the Christmas holidays. I wanted to leave a review for the property as it is truly exceptional, even in the winter. You simply cannot curate the atmosphere of Tormarton Court as it has clearly been lovingly nurtured over many years; it is warm, comfortable and luxurious. The overwhelming experience of this gorgeous oasis is pure joy. It was a privilege to stay in such a stunning, historically significant home and to be able to walk the grounds of this beautiful property. My husband and I have stayed at numerous luxury locations all over the world but Tormarton Court is a standout. It is rare to find a property so grand yet so incredibly inviting a place where you can relax and enjoy all that this lovely estate has to offer as well as discovering the local village and regional delights. Truly a very special experience. Thank you. Siobhan and David." December 2024
"An Enchanting English Escape at Tormarton Court: Our family's stay at Tormarton Court exceeded every expectation we had, and the photos, beautiful as they are, simply cannot capture the true charm and character of this remarkable property. From the moment we arrived, we knew we had discovered something truly special. The house itself is absolutely stunning, with every room telling its own story through period details and thoughtful touches that make you feel like you have stepped into a living piece of English history. The character and warmth of the home create an atmosphere that's both grand and genuinely welcoming, a rare combination that makes Tormarton Court feel like the perfect country house retreat.
What truly set our experience apart was the exceptional hospitality we received. Our hostess went above and beyond in every conceivable way, anticipating our needs and ensuring our comfort with a level of care that felt both professional and genuinely personal. Her attention to detail and gracious nature made us feel like welcomed guests rather than mere renters. Equally memorable was our interaction with the gardener, whose knowledge and passion for the grounds were evident in every conversation. Not only did she share fascinating insights about the garden's history and plantings, but she was also incredibly kind and helpful whenever we needed assistance. Her expertise and warmth added an authentic local dimension to our stay that we will treasure.
The gardens themselves deserve special mention They are nothing short of magical. Spending summer days wandering through the beautifully landscaped English gardens, with their perfect blend of formal structure and natural beauty, was restorative in ways we had not anticipated. Whether enjoying morning coffee surrounded by blooming borders or evening strolls along manicured paths, the outdoor spaces provided a sense of peace and renewal that our family desperately needed. This stay was more than just a vacation rental; it was a transformative experience that brought our family closer together while providing the kind of restorative escape that's increasingly rare in our busy world. The combination of stunning surroundings, exceptional hospitality, and the inherent magic of English country living makes Tormarton Court a destination we would recommend without reservation. For families seeking an authentic English country house experience with hosts who truly care about creating memorable stays, Tormarton Court is an absolute gem." Adam July 2025
