Oak Tree Inn - A lochside hotel with award-winning dining, sustainable initiatives, and proximity to Conic Hill and the West Highland Way

Set in the picturesque village of Balmaha, the 3-star Oak Tree Inn offers 42 varied accommodations, including standard rooms, superior pods, and nearby cottages-all featuring flat-screen TVs, free Wi-Fi, and views of Loch Lomond or the surrounding area. St Mocha Coffee Shop, onsite, serves Loch Lomond Coffee roasted in-house alongside homemade ice cream; the inn's restaurant provides hearty meals using locally sourced ingredients. Guests can hike Conic Hill via a footpath directly opposite the hotel or explore the West Highland Way, with the Millennium Forest Trail and Balmaha Boatyard's ferry to Inchcailloch Island within walking distance.
