Almost afloat, the Isles of Glencoe Hotel and Leisure
Centre nestles on the side of a peninsula reaching into
Loch Leven. This friendly, modern hotel offers everything
you dream of on holiday; spacious bedrooms with loch
and mountain-views and a relaxed, convivial ambience.
Guests come back time after time - some to marvel at
the awesome surroundings - others to enjoy all aspects
of The Isles experience. Listen as the water laps outside
your bedroom. Step down to the spectacular loch side
conservatory restaurant and savour a lively Bistro by
day or casual fine-dining by night. Dive into the sparkling
waters of the heated pool as they entice to the delights
of the Leisure Centre: Jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, exercise
room and solarium. Outside you can explore easy loch
side trails while children will delight in a charming
woodland Adventure Playground.
"A
really friendly place to go with a great, relaxed family
atmosphere. The pool and leisure centre make it perfect!"
Worlds apart from any hotel where you may have stayed
before, the spirit of relaxed freedom will strike you
immediately. Families find the warm, carefree ambience
particularly appealing whilst those of all ages appreciate
the refreshing sense of care from a positive team of
helpful staff.
The Isles of Glencoe Hotel and Leisure Centre is set
on its own loch side peninsula with three kilometres
of water frontage. Enjoy the sense of space all around
and the choice of magnificent walks and strolls just
on the doorstep.
The Isles makes a great base not just for touring by
car but is ideally placed for walkers, climbers
and cyclists wishing to explore the rugged West Highlands.
Nearby Ski Centres make this one of the finest winter
skiing resorts in Britain.
You will receive a complimentary guide to the area with
your booking and the Isles of Glencoe staff and Ranger
service are on hand to help you make the most of every
day whatever your interests.
Inspired by the simplicity of Celtic design, the Isles
Experience unfolds before you. Look out for our very

just the continuity of great traditions and the cycle
of life, but also the constant awareness required to
make you welcome.
