The Ben Doran surrounded by Alpine forests boasts of a gorgeous mountain view, nestled in its own sheltered seven-acre garden in the mountain village of Tyndrum on the northern edge of the Loch Lomond National Park. The hotel was built creatively with the unique feature of having the dining room and lounges on the top floor to offer guests spectacular views of the beautiful scenery. Another masterful touch can be found in the design of the bedrooms which are extremely spacious and boast all the comforts you need to make your stay at The Ben Doran as tranquil and relaxing as possible. The gardens at Ben Doran have several lily ponds and extensive lawns, which are a haven for wildlife and the stage for our Head Gardener's spectacular flower shows from spring till late autumn. With its beautifully kept and sparkling exterior, the Ben Doran is awash with colour all year round, inside and out. But you might also find colour of a distinctly golden hue. Tyndrum is sited on the Scottish Goldfield and, in 1997, a team of geologists found a gold seam only two miles from the village. There really is gold in them thar hills.
