10 out of 10 for location

The location of Clamshell lodge is perfect. You an sit and watch the sun go down over the Loch from the comfort of the sofa through the big picture windows. The lodge offers peace and tranquility, exactly what we needed. Fantastic pub serving delicious food a 10 minute walk away is the icing on the cake. Make sure you bring plenty of supplies as it is a trek to get to the shops. Despite not having great weather we had a really lovely stay and we would definitely book again.

Wonderful location

Wonderful location and very peaceful stay. Very comfortable stay in the cabin, very quiet with great views and lovely walks in area. Would suggest to owners that they provide some further information for visitors, regarding how to work hot water etc and perhaps a few more pieces of crockery/pans. If there had been more than 2 of us there would have been a struggle.. Would recommend for a peaceful and re-energizing stay.

Heaven!

Perfect location - yes it's miles from anywhere but bring your supplies and you'll never need anything! We had various days out at beaches, and did the ferry to Tarbet one day. Kids swam in the loch and played on the rope swing. Perfectly appointed kitchen (could have used some scissors and sharp knives but it's a little thing). Beds were really comfy and never heard a peep from the children after all the Scottish air! Will definitely be back. Thanks so much for Tristan's help when we had a flat battery on the day we left! absolute gem!

A wonderful peaceful haven

The Clamshell is a lovely comfy lodge in a setting that is breath taking, whatever the weather. We immediately felt relaxed and at peace. The lodge owner was amazing and on hand if needed. The Oystercatcher at Otter Ferry a must for super food, drinks and service, just a 20 minute walk away. Come prepared with supplies of food and drinks and then simply relax and enjoy. The best short break we have had in a long time. We will be back. Thank you.
