Loch Lomond Shores looking forward to Spring

Now the snow is starting to thaw, Loch Lomond Shores is looking forward to the spring – and there’s a lot going on at the destination!

Loch Lomond Bird of Prey Centre is already on spring opening hours, and is open from 10am everyday. By the end of March, the other lochside facilities, including the SEA LIFE aquarium, In Your Element outdoor activities, TreeZone aerial adventures and Sweeney Cruise Co. will be operating spring and summer hours.

But the return to full hours after the winter is not the only thing happening at Loch Lomond Shores. The site will be welcoming some new operators, as well as the return of Loch Lomond Comic Con for the second year.

Loch Lomond Shores site manager, Audrey Reid, said: “We’re really looking forward to seeing the back of this snow, and looking forward to the Spring.

“It’s business as usual for us now, with the shops getting busier with new season product and people buying for Mother’s Day and Easter. By the end of this month our leisure operators will be fully up to spring opening hours.

“It’s a great day out, and it’ll be made even better with the opening of our new bar & restaurant later this month, followed swiftly by the opening of restaurant, spa and wedding venue The Shore in April.

“And at the end of April, we’ll see the return of Loch Lomond Comic Con. Last year was the first one, and it was a huge success. This year the organisers promise it will be even bigger and better!”
