Great location, beautiful area, property was clean, well kept and idyllic for a get away from it all. Perfect for a couples retreat so peaceful and even if the weather is not great (which it was) I can still see the cabin being a hit. Just a great getaway.

Fantastic cabin and hot tub
My husband and I booked for a 3 day stay in January. After it taking us a wee bit time to find the right place, we were so impressed with the set up. It's quite secluded tucked behind the main house and the hot tub has it's own wooden surround for ultimate privacy just a few steps away from the front door. The place was immaculate. Once we worked out how the heating worked we were very happy and settled. we'd recommend this place to anyone looking for a break with a tranquil setting to relax.

Fantastic short break away
Everything you ever need for a break away from everything.
Lodge was lovely in an ideal location.
Facilities were perfect and everything you needed for any duration of stay.
The checking in process was so easy and hassle free.
Highly recommend this property and area to stay in. The loch and beach were so calming and peaceful (along with the weather!!) which made the break even more special.
Many thanks to Alison for the stay and cleanliness of the lodge.
Will definitely be returning for a longer break in the forthcoming future.

Erholsamer Aufenthalt
Wir haben sehr schöne Tage erlebt in dieser Region. Das sehr spezielle Logis müsste aus unserer Sicht noch besser unterhalten werden (Abfluss Lavabo, vereister Kühlschrank, defekte Düse im Tub, andere kleine Unterhaltsarbeiten wie Schranktüren Küche, lose Verkleidung in Sauna). Ansonsten haben wir den Aufenthalt genossen!
Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und unterstützend.
