“Whether it’s time for a Christmas escape or a truly Scottish Hogmanay, winter is a special time for Cameron House,” says Resort Director, Andy Roger. “Halls are decked, the hills are usually sprinkled with snow and we’ve also had reports that Santa finds the loch especially easy to land on.”

Christmas Market – New for 2016 Cameron House is bringing the delights of a traditional market to Loch Lomond in their first Christmas Market from December 9 – 11th.

Shoppers can expect to see a carefully curated selection of stalls selling everything from handmade children’s toys to Harris Tweed and tartan wares.

Guests can top this off with a glass of champagne or mulled wine to round off this very special occasion. Prices start from £32 per person.

Whether it’s a two, three or four night stay, Cameron House has the ideal package featuring plenty of festive cheer including: Aladdin Pantomime – Follow Aladdin on a colourful adventure full of flying carpets, a wish-granting genie and a lamp-full of laughs.

Cameron House’s pantomime debut promises to be an immersive magical adventure for guests on Christmas Eve and New Years’ Day suitable for the whole family.

From an intimate table for two to a family 'Host the Roast' affair that allows mums and dads to carve the turkey, Cameron House has Christmas Day covered for residents and non-residents alike. The afternoon is a leisurely affair with festive walks, roaring fires and a very special visitor primed to make an appearance.
