The Lochside House Hotel and Spa

Putting the world to rights is best done over afternoon tea. Especially if the afternoon tea is fuelled with a cheeky glass of Prosecco.

Put the world to rights and promote world peace with today’s Big Deal on a Prosecco afternoon tea at the lovely Lochside House Hotel.

Crowned as Scotland’s Best Independent Hotel at the 2014 Scottish Entertainment Awards, the Lochside House Hotel has built a reputation for great service, fine food and splendid drinks.

Conveniently, the hotel is less than an hour’s drive from Glasgow.

Award-winning venue

Set within 20 acres of land and overlooking The Loch of the Lowes, the four star Lochside House Hotel boasts magnificent views of the surrounding Ayrshire countryside.

Originally, a shooting lodge for the Marquis of Bute, the hotel combines a traditional Scottish welcome with 21st century amenities.

Happy guests

The Lochside House Hotel and Spa has lots of enthusiastic reviews on TripAdvisor. The friendly service is mentioned again and again. This guest enjoyed their afternoon tea:

‘Purchased a voucher for afternoon tea. I was very sceptical if the standard would be good as this was a promotional offer. No need to worry!! We started with a glass of beautifully chilled Prosecco. The sandwiches, scones and cakes were really fresh and the presentation was delightful. The large pot of tea was freshly brewed. The staff were extremely friendly and professional. The bonus was the view from the terrace on a lovely sunny day.’

Taken from the hotel’s Facebook page, this review is shorter but heartfelt:
