Portnellan Farm Speedboat Tours

We stayed for a week in August 2025 and had the most perfect week of weather.

We had great communication from Freda in advance of our stay and arrived at 4pm to a warm welcome and the stunning view.

Freda, David and their family made us feel so welcome and were really friendly.

The accommodation was perfect for us with all rooms overlooking the view. The bedrooms are generous and comfortable and the kitchen and sitting room make for a very comfortable stay. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and cooking equipment.

We had a speedboat tour with Chris and hired kayaks on another day which made the experience even more magic.

We've decided to book again for new year and are looking forward to our return to one of our favourite places.

Edit:
We loved Portnellan Farm so much we returned for a post Christmas week away. We were so warm and cozy that we never needed to light the fire. The only drawback of being there at that time of year is that you don't get to speak with Freda, David and their family as much as we weren't sat on the deck.

We'll be back. Not sure when but we will be.

We had an amazing experience on the private speed boat tour with Portnellan Farm! Our captain, Chris, was absolutely wonderful, so friendly, accommodating, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area (he grew up right on Loch Lomond!). He shared great stories, gave us an exciting and fun ride around the Loch, and showed us some truly stunning views.

I have to assume that this was so much better than the group tours that leave from the main ports (and not much more expensive when you have a group). Having a private boat made the experience feel personal, relaxed, and unforgettable. If you’re deciding between the big tours or this, definitely go with Portnellan Farm's Private Tours.

And if you can’t make it all the way up to Loch Ness, don’t worry, Loch Lomond is every bit as beautiful, especially when you’re out on the water. We couldn’t recommend this experience more highly!
