RecommendedFloating houseboats and waterfront homes on Loch Tay

Taymouth Marina

Kenmore, Perthshire, Scotland

Sleeping on a houseboat is the sort of thing children talk about for years. Taymouth's floating homes are smart rather than rustic, the paddleboards are right there, and parents can slip off to the wood-fired sauna on the water. Kenmore village and its crannog are a stroll away.
