Kentallen, Loch Linnhe

Dog-friendly accommodation

We are a very dog-friendly hotel, and this area is a fantastic place to take your four-legged friend on holiday!

Accommodation

Each of our hotel rooms is dog-friendly, and this area is full of walks and trails to take your dog on! Plus, if your dog likes to swim, then Loch Linnhe is a fantastic place to throw stones in for them to chase after. We have two golden retrievers ourselves who are never out of the water - Dougie and Fergus.

When you are in the hotel, we do ask that you keep your dog off the furniture, and we recommend that you keep your dog on a lead at all times around the hotel as there is a main road nearby.

Dog-friendly dining

For dining, we accept dogs in both our Captain's Bar and our Seaview Terrace, but not in our Seafood Restaurant - the same menu is served in the Bar and Terrace anyway. Click here to learn more about dining. If you wish to have breakfast with your dog, then we can accommodate you in the lounge! Please make sure you let us know the night before so we can get it set up for you.
