Lochside House and Apartment are located just near to the Stronachlachar pier on Loch Katrine where the Sir Walter Scott paddle steamer calls in every day during the summer. It’s only 4.5 miles to Inversnaid on the east side of Loch Lomond, where you can catch a ferry to the other side of the loch and explore further afield.
Discovering the Highlands one hill at a time! We've climbed Ben A'an a few times, as it's about a 45-minute drive from Lochside House. It's only 461 m high, but the views from the top are epic! And you can just about see Lochside House with the naked eye - a little white dot near the end of the Loch. Starting from the car park by Loch Achray, the trail is a 2-3 hour journey of scenic bliss (with a fair sprinkling of sweat). Steady climb, some more demanding rocky bits, but totally worth it for the summit panorama! 🤩📸 No ice creams at the top, but overlooking Loch Katrine and Loch Achray, the summit serves up a visual feast. Perfect for a quick hike to get your heart rate up in the 100s, if you're into that! Pro tip: Proper footwear is a must – unless you're into free mud spa treatments! 😂🧗♂️ And tag us in your photos, because this spot is Instagram gold, especially at sunrise or sunset. 🌅 #BenAan #ScottishHighlands #Trossachs #HillHiking #ViewsForDays #LochWow #NatureLovers #ScotlandAdventures #EpicViews #scottishholidays #scottishholidaycottage
The Sir Walter Scott steamship has been sailing on Loch Katrine since 1900. It calls in at Stronachlachar Pier twice a day on its round trip from the Trossachs Pier. It's a great thing to do when you're staying with us. You can also hire bikes at the Trossachs Pier and take them one way on the ferry and cycle back to the Trossachs Pier, or vice versa. The Pier Cafe is a wonderful place to have lunch or afternoon tea, or just a quick cuppa.

Fancy waking up to this view? No two days look the same out of this window! This is what you will see from the living room in Lochside Apartment and the master bedroom in Lochside House.
