Wonderful stay

This bach has everything you need and nothing you dont. Our second time staying here and we will be back again. A very short walk to the beach yet quiet and private location. Super comfortable beds and plenty of hot water. Another great stay, many thanks.

Fantastic holiday in Kinloch

Staying at the Lakehouse was the best decision we made. Everything is here for a comfortable stay. Good beds/2 bathrooms/everything you need in the kitchen/outside table and chairs with bbq and an amazing view. The sunsets are fabulous! A short walk to the lake and shop tops it off. We have been coming to Kinloch every summer for 30 years and never get tired of it. Now our grandchildren are loving it here too.Wonderful memories!!!

Covid19

Unfortunately, due to covid19 lockdown, we had to cancel our stay at this bach. We were very excited to stay here and will hopefully book a holiday once we are able too. The owner was lovely to deal with and was very proactive in contacting us re covid19 outbreak and ensured we were feeling OK and happy to help with cancellation, etc. Thank you!
