Dramatic surroundings indeed – evocative, romantic – yet at the same gentle and very soothing.


Knockinaam Lodge stands in 30 acres of glorious gardens and woodland with immaculate lawns running down to a private sandy beach. In such a tranquil setting, Sir Winston Churchill met General Eisenhower and their Chiefs of Staff during the Second World War.

Scotland’s south west coast is decked with some of the most beautiful beaches in the UK. From endless stretches of golden sand to fascinating little inlets and coves. Here at Knockinaam we have our own magnificent private cove, making us quite unique and offering our guests the remarkable seclusion which this provides, lovely coastal walks, the warming effect of the gulf stream, and the Irish Sea lapping up almost to our doorstep.
