THE OAK TREE INN

42-bedroom hotel, restaurant, bar and coffee shop in beautiful Balmaha, Loch Lomond
(3110)

The Fraser Family who own the Oak Tree Inn were born and raised on the East Side of Loch Lomond. They built The Oak Tree Inn in 1997 using slate from local quarries to create a building that fits beautifully into the picturesque loch side village of Balmaha. Over the years, Sandy and Lucy Fraser have been joined in the business by all of their children and have also provided employment to many loc

al people. Passionate about Loch Lomond, they work closely with the National Park, Love Loch Lomond and The Friends of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs on initiatives to improve tourism and conservation. Located on the East Side of Loch Lomond, The Oak Tree Inn is easily accessible from Glasgow, Stirling and Edinburgh. The Fraser Family have helped to make Balmaha Loch Lomond's Ultimate Destination.
