Beautiful countryside

Loch Eck side is in a beautiful area. Ash Lodge and Park have some superb views. The Loch side road is surprisingly busy so expect some traffic noise (not excessive though). The only negative on the accommodation is the decking outside the front door which feels springy and may be reaching end-of-life. The inside of the Lodge was clean and functional. I would definitely stay there again if there were no room at the Whistlefield Inn.

Ash Lodge

Lodge was great however the shower wasn't working, no hot water. We raised the issue with the property manager and to his credit he responded very quickly can came to the property to see if he could fix the issue. He couldn't but after a few calls advised that someone would be arriving to fix the problem and we would be contacted. We never received any call or update so decided to cut our holiday short and leave. The bathroom sink also started to leak which restricted where we could wash. Its been nearly a week since we left and still no correspondence, poor customer service.

Lovely little chalet

We stayed in Ash Lodge for a short break in July, with our little dog. The site is tucked away and although there are other lodges around, it's not like the bigger places where they can all feel on top of each other. The chalet was spotlessly clean, with a well equipped kitchen, good shower and very comfy bed. Nice private garden area and veranda which isn't overlooked...except by the wide variety of birds visiting the feeders! The road is nearby but not too busy and is well screened by trees - you don't hear any noise inside. The decor may be a little dated but it's perfectly comfortable and well situated for exploring the area. Two minute walk to the Whistlefield Inn, which has a lovely bar and great food. Booking was easy and arrival instructions clear. Overall, a little gem which offers great value.

A great little lodge!

We stayed at Ash Lodge for a week at the end of May. It helped that the weather was fantastic but aside from that it was the best week. The bed is very comfy, good shower facilities and the kitchen has everything you need to prep and cook meals. Lodge is basic and "no frills" but for the cost I think it is great value for money. Personally we weren't there to sned 24/7 inside - we were out and about all day every day. The lodge is in a great location for walks and the views across the Loch are spectacular. We have booked again for October.
