Spa day with a difference !

As a birthday treat and a well deserved break I treated Cornelius to the Hot Box spa day at the Taymouth Marina, and then lunch next door at the Ferry Inn.

Only 40 minutes from Ardoch Lodge this is a such a special day trip and it starts with probably one of the most beautiful car journeys on the south side of Loch Tay.

Taymouth Marina is situated on picturesque Loch Tay in the village of Kenmore, Perthshire. Loch Tay is one of the largest and deepest freshwater lochs in Scotland and is widely regarded as one of the best in the country due to its picture-perfect setting.


The Hot Box experience

This 2 hour invigorating and relaxing experience includes full use of Outdoor HotPool, HotBox Sauna, Steam Room, Jetty, Loch Tay Slide and a relaxing outdoor terrace all surrounded by magnificent views,  Ben Lawers sits opposite, seen best in the sauna room.

Sliding down the slide and plunging into the Loch is exhilarating to say the least, then we pulled the buckets of cold water over us, and  plunged into the hot tub, there's on tap waiter service, and of course those stunning views!!( we recommend trying the Hugo gin spritzer 👌)
Fresh towels, selection of fresh fruit, fruit-infused water, are also included, plus slippers and robes, what more could you want from a spa day that allows you to blend in with nature as well as jumping into it!

The Ferry Inn is a Gastro- bar recently refurbished, it has a wood burning pizza oven and decking that looks over the Loch. We had mussels which weren’t great, probably best to stick to pizza or burgers.

If you want to book do it as early as possible, it’s very popular, they have a limit on the numbers allowed in each session which is perfect as it doesn’t feel crowded.
