Luxury boutique hotel on the banks of Loch Voil in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park
Dining
The hotel's award-winning restaurant serves a seasonal 10-course tasting menu featuring pork from the Lewis family farm and produce from the estate. A hand-picked wine list offers bottles matched to each dish, and guests can also choose from the bar menu with more modestly priced options. On-site culinary classes provide hands-on cooking experiences, and breakfast includes local produce such as freshly baked scones and poached eggs.
Accommodations
Guests can choose from individually styled rooms in the former farmhouse and courtyard buildings, many with Loch or mountain views and slate, wood, and local stone décor. Unique accommodations include a restored showman's wagon (the Pilot Panther) and a ferry cabin with an outdoor wood-fired bath. The hotel also offers a Tiny House and the Corr cabin, with some rooms featuring private steam rooms or sunken baths.
Wellness & Activities
The hotel provides a loch-side sauna for relaxation, with wild swimming available in the nearby loch. Guests can book a range of massages including back, couples, and full body treatments. Outdoor activities include cycling, fishing, hiking, and guided foraging trips, as well as a Wine Safari experience with drinks and food at scenic stops.
Pet-Friendly & Family
The hotel welcomes dogs with dedicated outdoor areas for activities, and pets are allowed in many common spaces. Families have access to board games and puzzles, kids' meals, and farm tours where children can meet the resident highland cow, donkeys, and goats. The property also features a children's play area and a picnic area for outdoor meals.
Location & Setting
Set within the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park, the hotel sits between two lochs with direct access to walking trails. Nearby attractions include Queen Elizabeth Forest Park, ski areas, and hiking routes in the Scottish Highlands. The property is a 30-minute drive from the family's award-winning fish restaurant in Callander and offers electric vehicle charging stations.
Highlights
Location: On the banks of Loch Voil in a national park

“The setting alone, with its tranquil loch views and working farm atmosphere, creates a profound sense of peace. This serene backdrop is matched by attentive staff and first-class cuisine, where daily changing menus using local produce make dining an adventure. It truly feels like a special escape, offering a deeply comforting and remarkably well-executed experience.”
