The Kenmore Hotel

The Kenmore, an inn that dates back to 1502, claims to be Scotland's oldest hotel, offering the ever-popular combo of 'accommodation and refreshments.' Famous personalities have dined at the Kenmore Hotel throughout the years, including Oliver Cromwell, who dined there with his forces while pursuing the Earl of Montrose in the 17th century. Cromwell and his troops did not burn down the Kenmore, unlike other places in the neighborhood, thus the service and food must have been excellent.

Later, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert stayed at the hotel for a portion of their honeymoon. Robert 'Rabbie' Burns, a Scottish poet, also paid a visit and wrote a poem about the place while he was there. The poem is still hung on the chimney breast of the Kenmore today. Kenmore Hotel is one of the oldest hotels in Scotland.

The Kenmore Hotel, located in Highland Perthshire's village of Kenmore, offers hotel rooms and 10 5-star lodges, as well as a restaurant and traditional bar with views across the River Tay. Kenmore is located to the east of Loch Tay and to the north of the River Tay.
