Guest Inspired Activities at Rhumhor Holiday Lodge

Whether our guests are here for a long weekend or a week we love to hear of the many different activites they’ve enjoyed during there stay. 

Often our guests just kick back and enjoy the complete tranquillity here at Carrick Castle, but often they’ve made their stay extra special by planning some activites for all the family.  So what could you plan during your stay here?

Here are five suggestions inspired by our guests.

1) Come Dine With Me.

If you have a competitive nature why not split your party into pairs and plan a Come Dine with Me competition. As Rhumhor Holiday Lodge is a self catering property it has all the cooking and dining facilities you need to conjure up impressive meals with fantastic Argyll produce available locally. You could pick a specific theme per night with each pair creating a dining experience to match that theme. The dining room lends itself perfectly to a formal dinner party, and the dishwasher means no one will be stuck at the end of the evening doing the dishes. The options are endless and perhaps the winner could be treated to a meal at one of the lovely local restaurants.

2) Photography Workshop.

When you visit such a beautiful landscape it is only natural you’ll want to capture what you see, and this seems so much easier in the age of digital cameras. Wouldn’t it be great to learn how to spot the moment to take your photo and how to use the elements of landscape within your picture to best effect. Book a session with Loch Goil’s resident photographer and you will pick up all kinds of hints and tips on how to take better photographs, as well as having some mementos from the day on your camera.

3) Wildlife and scenery tip by canoe.

If you are itching to explore the loch and get up close to wildlife then treat yourselves to a trip out on Loch Goil’s voyageur canoes. The canoes will take up to 10 passengers and you will journey with an experienced steersman who will reveal beautiful locations along the loch. You can visit the local seals, spot a range of birdlife and perhaps see our visiting porpoises.

4) Cruise on the Loch.

What better way to celebrate a birthday or special occasion than a cruise on one of the most famous lochs in Scotland, Loch Lomond. You can start the cruise at Tarbet, a short drive from Rhumhor and park right by the departure point.  Combine history with the stunning scenery of north Loch Lomond by taking the Rob Roy Discovery cruise which explains the relationship between this famous loch and equally famous Scot. You can enjoy a special Rob Roy whisky coffee as you take in the glorious sights of the highlands.

5) Murder Mystery nights or weekend (for all ages!)

How about a night of intrigue and suspense during your stay at Rhumhor? Murder mystery kits can be purchased easily on the internet with complete instructions of how to set up for a day or days of mystery and excitement.   These kits are available to suit all ages so it is a chance for everyone to join in the fun.  Rhumhor really lends itself to this unusual activity with its quirky character, spacious rooms, tranquil location and masses of outdoor space.
