Ord House Hotel Restaurant in Highland

Have been here for lunch previously and when we were looking for a venue for a lunch for a large group decided to go here. There was a special pre Christmas menu with lots of choice and at a very reasonable price. The staff were excellent and service very smooth and efficient. Everyone enjoyed their meal.

Durch Zufall sind wir zum Dinner im Ord House gelandet. Ohne die Schilder zu Beginn der holprigen Straße hätte man es sicher nie gefunden - was sich aber ändern müsste. Denn der Besuch war wundervoll. Das alte Gutshaus liegt wie in einem Märchen verankert und strotzt nur so vor Charme. Sicher könnte das eine oder andere renoviert werden, aber es war überall (Bar, WCs, Empfangshalle usw, Diningroom) blitzsauber und in jedem Winkel kann man alte Schätzchen finden.Das Personal ist ausnehmend freundlich und zuvorkommend, gern auch mal um 1-2 Sätze mehr zum plaudern aufgelegt als nur das Nötigste. Das Essen war wirklich grundsolide und ausgenommen schmackhaft und dazu mit einem super Preis-Leistungsverhältnis versehen. Wir haben uns fantastisch gefühlt und jeden Moment genossen. Wir waren nicht das letze Mal hier und empfehlen das Restaurant/Hotel uneingeschränkt weiter!

Eh oui, depuis la route A 832, il est plus judicieux de suivre les panneaux qu'un GPS (je me suis retrouvé dans la cour d'une ferme :;-)Les dernières centaines de mètres se font en empruntant un chemin en sous-bois (bien boueux en cas de pluie ::-/ ) et le parking est fortement gravillonné (ce n'est pas du tout pratique à moto !).Par contre, une fois la porte franchie, accueil cordial (malgré ma tenue de pluie et mes bottes humides ::-)Salle à manger au 1er étage, sobre sans être austère.Dans l'assiette de ma compagne :- pâté de maquereau fumé (8,25 £) : texture surprenante (molle) mais, finalement, très bon goût,- entrecôte d'Angus Aberdeen (18,50 £) + sauce bleu (2,50 £) : cuisson demandée - saignant - respectée. La vinaigrette de la salade était trop acide (trop vinaigrée).Dans la mienne :- croquettes ("fishcakes") de saumon (8,50 £) : très bon et sauce - vraiment maison - fabuleuse (un mix de tartare - ciboulette - et de béarnaise - morceaux d'échalote). J'ai transmis mes compliments à la cuisine !- "Ord House Steak and Ale Pie" : présentation originale avec un ramequin contenant la viande et sa sauce, recouvertes de la pâte. Légumes (brocolis, pois mange-tout) à la cuisson ("al dente"/croquants) extra ! Par contre, si les frites étaient taillées à la française (donc pas trop épaisses) elles étaient trop salées (je l'ai signalé).- crème brûlée (5,75 £) en dessert (je dois dire que la carte des desserts ne m'a guère inspiré) : classique.Vin au verre : Shiraz (5,50 £ / 175 ml).Cidre Thistly Cross Elderflower (3,60 £, en bouteille) : la fleur de sureau se sent bien.Service à la hauteur de tous les serveur/ses (l'une est française, ce qui va ravir les francophones perplexes devant la carte !).Les prix sont certes élevés - ça a peut-être été le montant le plus élevé de nos 2 semaines en Ecosse - mais ils sont pleinement justifiés par la qualité des mets et du service !

Das Hotel / Restaurant war nicht so ganz einfach zu finden, man hätte nicht vermutet, daß am Ende dieses holprigen Weges ein Kleinod versteckt ist.Die Servicekräfte waren super freundlich und bemüht, sogar deutsch wurde gesprochen.Man kam sich vor, als wäre man Lord und Lady im vorigen Jahrhundert.Das Essen war ausgezeichnet und die Preise für hießige Verhältnisse günstig.Ein toller abschließender Abend für unseren Schottlandbesuch.

On a cold rainy May evening we dined at the Ord House. We were greeted warmly by the staff and enjoyed the bar area, complete with a fireplace and Labrador Retriever, while we waited for our dinner to be prepared. Our steaks were cooked perfectly, the salad greens, bread and potatoes were delicious. After dinner we strolled through the Tolkien-like garden complete with trees and boulders dripping with moss and flowers springing from every nook. Don’t miss a chance to dine in this unique restaurant!

Heel fijn hotel op mooie locatie. Heel gezellig ingericht en mooie ruime kamers. Handig dat een whiskey distilleerder ernaast ligt.

Maten smakade utmärkt och personalen var om sig och kring sig. Troligen dom som ägde och drev hotellet. Frukosten kunde varit strået vassare men det funka.

Bijzonder leuk, authentiek Schots hotel. Zijn erg vriendelijk ontvangen door de eigenaar. Vriendelijke mensen. 2x gedineerd; heerlijk!

We have stayed in the hotel to which this restaurant is attached to. The food is authentic, done by the host Eliza and the service is efficient and kind.

We could clearly see why they have won awards for over 10 years in a row. Excellent food, reasonable prices, and outstanding service.

Asking guests to make a reservation time if they were having dinner in the restaurant would be better than the free dining time we experienced.

Excelente servicio y deliciosa comida. Tenía el salmón ahumado, magnífica. En macetas camarones eran muy buenos. Venado con puerros y tocino estuvó también era muy buena, como el acoso de tarta. Todo preparado por Eliza. Helados caseros y excelentes, eran sal de mar de caramelo y plátano, limón y frambuesa ripple merengue.

Food was well cooked and hot and the service was good. The menu gave a nice but small selection of food from Steak to beef burgers and chips and all in between.

El restaurante está en el primer piso del hotel y es una sala muy cansados con una variedad de mesas pobre destartalados y sillas vinculado a una segunda habitación con desorden visible. El servicio es por un ascensor y camareros camareras comida que trabajan duro, pero están mal formados. Dice ser fino, pero las mesas están manchadas, los cubiertos era incorrecta, el menú es pobre y la comida fue servida terriblemente. Algunos son platos rotos y raciones no están distribuidas correctamente en los platos que he comido mucho mejor en algunos pubs Restaurantes olvídate de tamaño razonable normal. Panceta de cerdo era pobre, cordero era o pero difícil teniendo en cuenta la época del año y no decente. hortalizas eran pobres. El STP no pase muster en esta habitación para comer, pero no era una experiencia agradable de un alimento o punto de vista.

Lovely converted "tower house". Gracious, wonderful hosts who do a wonderful tea. I loved the charm of this place!

De ontvangst was heel persoonlijk, we hebben eerst beneden in de suite even wat gedronken tot de tafel klaar was. Daarna boven in de eetkamer gegeten. Voortreffelijke keuken, met liefde bereid. Personeel kan mooi vertellen over de geschiedenis van het huis. Alle gerechten waren vers bereid en van hoge kwaliteit. De deep fried Stilton is een aanrader! Nette wijnen erbij gedronken.

El lugar es en la necesidad de algunos TLC en serio, pero los anfitriones son encantadores y muy amables también... la comida era muy buena, especialmente el filete. Buena selección de vinos y un bar bien equipado con sus whiskies. Los jardines de los alrededores son impresionantes y muy tranquilo. Una propiedad encantadora con mucho potencial!

Posto datato, ma incantevole anche se un po' defilato e la strada per raggiungerlo è abbastanza dissestata. La cucina chiude alle 20:30, per cui è meglio arrivare per tempo. Il personale molto gentile e cordiale, la stanza del ristorante piccola e raccolta e l'atmosfera è molto calda. Trovo però che il prezzo pagato sia stato un po' eccessivo: una vellutata, un antipasto, un petto di pollo e un dolce per quasi £ 40,00.

Good food and friendly staff but ... BEWARE THE DRIVEWAY ... half a mile of potholes but you will certainly have developed an appetite by the time you reach the hotel !

Sehr einfaches Essen, eine grosse Speisekarte. Das Restaurant hat nicht den Old Schottischen Touch. Freundliche Bedienung

Beautiful hotel right next to the distillery worth a visit Muir of ord beauty fishing countryside mountains plenty to do loads of walks

We arrived quite late for a meal (8.35) In fact the chef had closed the kitchen - he was more than happy to open it up again for the four of us and not even a reduced menu! Apologies were quickly given for the delay in service due to having to switch everything back on. When the food arrived, it was delicious and piping hot. The staff were fabulous, very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely go back when we are in the area

The meals are individually prepared and are superb and the menu choice is excellent. You can eat them in the cosy bar with log burner or in the restauarant. Would particularly recommend the steaks or duck!!!!

Ord House is different. I originally stayed here as a small boy with my mother and then returned again just before I was married a good many years ago. I was interested to see how it had changed.It is like a thrown back in time. To get to the hotel you have to go up a drive which is approximately half a mile long. You will pass the local whiskey distillery on the way (drop in for the guided tours, it is well worth it). The house itself is very old. Above the doorway the date is from the 1650's (really should have made a note of exact date). You open the front door into a large living room, full of chairs, books and newspapers to read. The reception area is hidden away just above a small set of stairs. Our bedroom was large and decorated in an old fashioned country house style. Not to everyone's taste but somehow seems to fit in with the rest of the building (although some of you might wonder who matched the curtains and the wallpaper). If you insist on a television in your room you won't want to stay here. If you love the idea of getting away from it all then you will want to stay here. BTW - they do have excellent Wifi so if you really cannot get away from gadgets then you can always play on your tablet.Downstairs again and the bar is small but very comfortable, just the kind of place to visit after a long walk or fishing. Further along is a living room which looks out onto a croquet lawn.We ate in the dinning room (calling it a restaurant is probably stretching it). The food was good home cooking and pleasant and the staff are really friendly.Had it changed? No not really and that is its charm. It is clean and our room, had been redecorated with new carpets. But it is like stepping back in time. Some people will love it because of that, others will not.

Prachtig authentiek hotel waar Eliza de heerlijkste gerechten maakt en hiervoor al 10 achtereenvolgende jaren voor wordt beloonf met de Rosetta award.

Small, pub-like restaurant in the hotel. Good menu selection and also daily specials. Portions are very generous. Our meals were delicious and beautifully presented. There was one young lady looking after everyone and she was extremely polite and efficient. Highly recommend. We were pleasantly surprised. Excellent value.

The food is well prepared to your own preferences. Very tasty and the staff are very friendly and efficient.

We dropped in around mid-day to a quiet attractive country house, asked if bar meals were available, and were shown through what seemed to be lengthy passages lined with hunting meorabilia to a small bar area. No draught beer being available I asked for a can of lager which was duly served.The taste was not what was expected and on ordering again I simply asked for a can to pour it out myself. As suspected it was outdated and the date on the base of the can was NOVEMBER 2011 The menu was a single sheet of paper duly used and stained. My attention was drawn to The home made battered fish and chips at £11.95, much above comparative prices elsewhere in an area well known for fresh haddock. The acutual order comprised a rather dessicated. piece of rozen fish and an equally obviously portion of frozen minichips Only after I had settled I brought these matters to the very polite new watress who had been there only two weeks.and in fairness she offered refunds which were not accepted by me, my intention not being to obtain a cheap meal..My wife`s wine and salad were good but no wow factor as they say.I spoke later to the owner who apologised but did not seem to have any hands on knowledge of the matters complained about.. A funny experience on the whole and like most other places around could be improved greatly with a little bit of tweaking from the top
