The business trades most of the year (closed for staff holidays) with the peak tourist season being from the Easter to the beginning of October, which is typical for the Argyll area. Occupancy numbers during June, July and August will typically hit close to 90%. New owners could easily extend the operating period as there is demand all year round for accommodation.

Lochwood House is an easily run business that can be operated by the owners without the assistance of any staff. Rooms are let on a B&B basis. Rooms are let from £120 per night to £190 per night.
There are 7 letting rooms in total with additional owners accommodation. 1 self contained suite with ensuite and kitchen/dining room with garden view. 5 letting rooms with en-suite and they benefit from either Loch or garden views and 1 letting room with a separate private bathroom.

Immediate opportunities exist to extend the opening season, serve evening meals, and take full advantage of the stunning location and passing tourist trade.
