This year, we celebrate 150 years of providing exceptional hospitality at Tor-Na-Coille Hotel. In 1873, our founder Mr George Thomson built this striking Victorian family home, which now stands as a prestigious 25-bedroom hotel. We are proud to have recently completed a major refurbishment under new management, unveiling a hidden gem - The Greedy Goose Restaurant & Cocktail Bar.
