Assistance dogs are always welcome at The Loch Ness Centre. While well-behaved dogs are permitted at other times, please note that the experience can be busy, with loud and dark areas throughout.

During July and August, we only allow assistance dogs, as this is our busiest period, and we believe it may not be a suitable environment for pets. If you have any questions,  get in touch with us in advance.
