The Kenmore Club

The resort and its setting

The Kenmore Club sits right on the edge of Loch Tay in the Perthshire village of Kenmore, inside Perth and Kinross. Google reviewers rate it 4.6 out of 5 from over 830 reviews, and the picture that comes through is a consistent one: comfortable, no-fuss apartments on a smarter-than-average resort estate, with free mini-golf and on-site parking included, plus the kind of loch and hillside views that are hard to tire of. It's a self-catering base rather than a full-service hotel, which suits owners and renters who want space to cook, relax and come and go on their own schedule.

Kenmore, Loch Tay and the surrounding area

Kenmore is a small, tidy village at the point where the River Tay flows out of Loch Tay, and it has been a gateway for visitors to this part of Perthshire for a couple of hundred years. The loch itself is the main draw — walking, cycling, fishing and watersports are all easily arranged locally, and the surrounding hills and glens are classic central Highlands scenery. Aberfeldy, a short drive away, has shops, cafes and a distillery worth a visit, and the wider area is well placed for day trips into Highland Perthshire, including Loch Tay's crannog heritage site and the hillwalking country around Ben Lawers. It's a destination that works equally well for a quiet week away, a family holiday with plenty of outdoor activities to keep the kids busy, or a base for touring Perthshire and the southern Highlands.

Selling or renting a week here

If you own a week at The Kenmore Club and no longer use it, you can list it for sale or rent on BidMyTimeshare.com as a private, owner-to-owner resale — there's no agency in the middle marking up the price. You set your own asking price, write your own listing, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. Sellers pay a one-time listing fee to advertise, and nothing more — BidMyTimeshare.com takes 0% commission on the sale.

Because The Kenmore Club falls under the Hilton Vacation Club / Diamond Resorts Europe umbrella, resale here works a little differently from an independent resort — transfers go through the Club's own rules rather than a local owners' association. According to Diamond Resorts' membership key information (March 2022), transferring a points membership to a new or existing member costs £299 / €343.85 per certificate, while transferring a week to a new owner costs £200 / €230 per certificate (a lower £75 / €86.25 family transfer fee applies when the transfer is to a relative). HGV Europe's 2026 governing documents confirm that transfers are only permitted to family, heirs, through an HGV-appointed regulated intermediary, or at HGV's discretion — there's a right of first refusal built into the club rules, so a sale isn't automatically guaranteed to go through to any buyer. Published documents don't give a standard transfer timeframe, so it's worth asking the current administrator for an estimate before committing to a completion date.

It's also worth being clear with buyers that a resale-only points purchase does not come with full Club membership — under HGV's rules, resale-only points owners are not enrolled as Members of the Club in the same way as a direct purchaser would be. The resort does participate in RCI and Interval International, which is a genuine selling point worth mentioning to prospective buyers who exchange their weeks elsewhere.

Practical notes for buyers and renters

Renters researching The Kenmore Club are typically drawn by the loch setting, the free mini-golf and parking, and the apartment-style layout that offers more space than a standard hotel room. If you're selling, be upfront in your listing about the week or points allocation you hold, the annual maintenance fee you currently pay, and any transfer costs the buyer will need to budget for — buyers appreciate knowing these figures before they make an offer rather than after. Checking the current annual fee and transfer cost with HGV/Diamond before agreeing a price avoids surprises for both sides once the sale moves forward.
