Book direct at Kings House Hotel, Lochearnhead

Description:
Set against the backdrop of the wonderful scenery of highland Perthshire the Kings House is a small, friendly family run hotel situated in the heart of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park. This striking historic building faces towards Balquhidder, Loch Voil, the western hills and the setting sun. The Kings House Hotel is a family run accommodation establishment. The Kings House Hotel was built on the site of a Royal Hunting Lodge of the Stewart Kings and used by King James VI.

The original building dates from circa 1571. The hotel was commissioned in 1799 as a 'Kings House' with 6 redcoat soldiers providing travellers and visitors with protection to ensure a tranquil stay. To this day the tradition of hospitality and care continues. The hotel accommodation consists of 7 rooms, 5 doubles and 2 twins. All the bedrooms are en-suite, furnished in a homely cottage style and two have four poster beds. The hotel dining room features a fireplace with log fires. The menu includes traditional Scottish fare (see the Restaurant section). If you fancy a drink try sampling some of Scotland's famous malt whiskies in the King James Bar adjacent to the dining room or in the Rob Roy Bar. Both serve bar meals from 11 a.m.

The King James Lounge bar is adjacent to the dining areas and the popular Rob Roy Bay with its open fire and traditional ambience is at the other end of the building. Both bars boast a hand picked selection of the finest malt whiskies from all parts of the Highlands and Islands. A well balanced bar menu is complemented by a snack menu and a take away service. There is also a daily specials board which is constantly changing with strong emphasis on local produce such as trout, beef, lamb and venison.
