Great place to relax and enjoy a family vacation. Very nice accommodations with lots of benefits and features. The view of the lake is very serene and peaceful.
We had an amazing time at Kinloch Lodge. If you can imagine yourself relaxing by a Scottish loch, with plenty of space to relax and roam, outdoor facilities a-plenty, then you’d be on the right track to imagining yourself at Kinloch. Hot tub, access to a loch for wild swimming, great kitchen and decent beds.
Location-wise completely ideal. A stones throw from Loch Ness and Drumnadrochit, but off the beaten track.
Would recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing escape, and we will be back as soon as we can.
This is a magical place!we had a wonderful time there.it’s spacious comfortable well equipped plus has fire places inside outside the jacuzzi in the garden and the location of the property is simply FANTASTIC.
We would definitely like to come back again and stay longer.
