Overview
Inn on the Loch is a pub, restaurant and cafe bar situated beside Lanark Loch in Lanark, South Lanarkshire, Scotland.

It occupies an impressive setting beside a park that offers fishing, a children's play area, a putting green and a golf course, and it presents itself as a modern, light and airy pub with a relaxed atmosphere and an idyllic outlook over the loch and the adjacent golf course. The business operates two main food and drink spaces.
