About this property
On the banks of Loch Lomond in the magnificent Queen Elizabeth Forest, this hotel has spectacular views of Ben Lomond, the loch and mountains to the north. Rowardennan Hotel is accessible, yet remote. It is an hour from Glasgow, but located at the foot of Ben Lomond (974 metres high) and encircled by woodland. The hotel's Clansman bar serves hearty meals. On a warm day enjoy the scenic views of the loch and the mountains to the north from the beer garden and on a cold day heat yourself by the roaring log fire. The Rowardennan Hotel dates back to 1696 and has a contemporary Scottish style. Many of the cosy rooms have stunning views.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.
