The Kenmore Club by Diamond Resorts
Kenmore, Perth and Kinross, Scotland, United Kingdom
Scenically located on the banks of Loch Tay and surrounded by picturesque hills and woodlands, the upper-middle-range Kenmore Club is a collection of quaint, self-catering cottages. The 58 cottages range from one to three bedrooms, have fully equipped stainless steel kitchens, and cream-tone decor. There is a large heated indoor pool on the property, a tiny fitness center with three machines, and spa facilities, for which non-Diamond club members pay a fee. The on-site bar and restaurant offer beautiful views over the lake from the floor-to-ceiling windows, but decor is dated and lackluster. Wi-Fi is available for a daily fee.

Dark-wood interiors are elegant and cozy, warmed by log fireplaces and imbued with old-world charm; there are plenty of comfortable couches to settle into with a book, or guests can indulge in a fine Scotch whiskey at the bar. The hotel’s Garden Restaurant serves tasty classic Scottish fare and a free breakfast. Rooms are individually decorated and vary in size, but are bright and pleasant, with flat-screen TVs, tea- and coffee-making facilities, and free Wi-Fi, though some rooms are small, and thin walls might mean noise.
