A recent survey of UK holidaymakers reveals that in 2011 there will be 10% more holiday makers choosing to stay in the UK for their annual holidays and short breaks. The threat of ash clouds, airline price increases and unrest in many foreign countries has turned the UK holidaymaker’s eye back to their very own British Isles. Tourists are looking for destinations that offer a little bit of everything – a place for relaxation, entertainment, coast and country and here on Loch Goil we offer all that.
Loch Goil is not only a stunning location, it is also incredibly peaceful. Forget the constant buzz of traffic and human activity, here you find the peaceful sound of the birds and wildlife. You could be a million miles away from your everyday life, and yet you are only just over an hour away from the cosmopolitan city of Glasgow.
While Loch Goil offers peace and tranquility it also has a myriad activities to suit all ages. For family entertainment head off to the Drimsynie Estate down the road where you will find an indoor swimming pool, a nine hole golf course, ice skating and amusements. For walkers the area is a delight – you have a large number of walks for all levels that offer wonderful views and vistas. Nature lovers will be keen to spot the seals in the loch and seek out the red squirrels in the ancient woodland between Rhumhor Holiday Lodge and Lochgoilhead. Meanwhile anyone interested in fishing or those that just fancy a cruise can hire a boat and explore Loch Goil from the water.
While there is never a guarantee of weather we do find that quite often you will more than one season in a day, so while you may wake up to find a shower within an hour or so the sun will be peeping out. Whatever the weather you will find the views from Rhumhor are just breathtaking. If you do have a rainy day then you will find plenty of activities in our big family room. There is a pool table, plenty of family games both traditional and modern and a Wii games console. We have a DVD library and both fiction and non-fiction books.
