Autumn Delights and Festive Breaks in the Highlands

Autumn has arrived in the Highlands once again, bringing a sea of magical colours to the shores of Loch Sunart. The local forests are currently awash with coppers, yellows and reds as the area prepares for the cooler months ahead. We’ve already had guests enjoying the quiet roads and countryside to explore the region, while our autumn menus have also been very well received.

Gourmet Food & Whisky Weekend breaks in West Scotland

May I take the opportunity to remind you of our special Kilcamb Gourmet Food & Whisky Weekend taking place in November? This special two day event will feature an introduction to some rare and unusual single malt whiskies, presented by connoisseurs from the local Adelphi distillery.

Classic car convoy delights Kilcamb Lodge guests

We recently welcomed a classic car group here to Kilcamb Lodge for a lovely lunch. The group were over from Holland, enjoying a wonderful tour of Scotland including an extended break at Kilcamb Lodge en-route. Some of the automobiles on display were real classics too; and we could not resist capturing a few photographs for your viewing pleasure. If the weather proved rather drizzly that afternoon, it certainly didn't seem to dampen the spirits of our Dutch friends, who enjoyed a welcome break before we bade them farewell and the best of luck with the rest of their tour.
