Cameron House on Loch Lomond is a 5-star resort and hotel in Scotland.

Set within 400 acres of picturesque Scottish countryside, Cameron House is a five-star hotel on the banks of Loch Lomond, a famous lake in Scotland. Dating back to the 15th century, the baronial estate celebrated its 200-year anniversary in 2023 and opened as a hotel in 1990. The expansive property offers luxury hotel and lodge accommodations, along with two golf courses, world-class restaurants and bars, and a variety of outdoor adventures and curated experiences.

Among Cameron House’s unique offerings is a wellness experience with Naughty Sheep, an ethical animal encounter farm focused on holistic wellness experiences. Guests have the opportunity to attend an exclusive monthly retreat which includes a yoga flow session accompanied by stunning views of the Scottish countryside, along with a guided sound meditation experience where guests can relax with sheep-themed blankets and pillows. 

The retreat also includes an afternoon tea experience in the garden with the farm’s naughty sheep who come by for cuddles and snacks, creating a whimsical and humorous experience for guests with their table manners.

  • Sauna: A traditional wood-lined sauna, the hot coals generate sweltering temperatures, and the extreme conditions are believed to boost the immune system.

  • Infrared Sauna: Harnessing the power of the sun, infrared panels are used to heat up the air in the cabin to enhance the dry hot atmosphere, open the skin’s pores, and aid in the detoxification of the body.

  • Hammam Room: Immerse yourself in gentle wafts of warm steam and feel the tension slip away as the dense visible humidity stimulates extra blood circulation in your body.
