Kinloch Lodge - Retreat Group
Kinloch is located in a truly idyllic position, a superbly picturesque setting for anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful retreat, or a family getaway to explore the Scottish Highlands.
Set in the stunning location of Balnain, on the side of Loch Meikle, approximately 2½ miles from Drumnadrochit and the world-famous Loch Ness.
Kinloch offers 4 bedrooms, accommodating 6 adults and 2 children. There are 2 double bedrooms, a twin room and bunk room. A communal family bathroom along the hall and into the open plan kitchen & living area providing a functional area for guests to eat, chat and relax with stunning views over the garden and the loch. There is also an additional shower room. In the colder months enjoy the warming glow of the log burning stove, a wee dram is optional!
Offering direct access onto the Loch, you can enjoy fishing for Brown Trout and Pike or take a leisurely paddle in your kayak or canoe around the endless waters of Meikle. (Rods and reels plus kayaks and canoes are not provided)
The surrounding countryside offers ample activities for those looking to get out and explore. Perfect for walkers and cyclists with endless miles of forest roads and trails, or for those looking to pursue the plethora of outdoor activities from horse riding to shooting and much more, or just enjoying some relaxing downtime on offer within nearby Drumnadrochit.
Outside you will find a raised deck with dining area and BBQ, perfect for sipping something cold (or warm!) whilst listening to the wildlife. After a hard day exploring, or just because you can, don't forget to check out the outdoor hot tub, sinking into the bubbles and soaking away with the onward views across Meikle and beyond.

Amazing Stay!
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.
