Statement from the interior designer: Using the beauty and simplicity of the natural surroundings the interior design of the Lodge is designed with comfort and effortless style in mind. From tree bark, timber, natural weaves and woven textures to marquetry inlaid wood design to the everchanging colours of the landscape as contrasting pop of colour. These interiors allow the outside-in! The perfect spaces to get away from it all!

The lodge was a great place to stay and relax, totally as described, Gillian, the host, was in touch from booking.Myself and my family had a fantastic time, thank you all
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely lodge. It had everything we needed. The scenery was spectacular, perfect for switching off. Beautiful views every day and the added bonus of a hot tub and garden area which was very private. We would happily return and recommend this lodge.
One of the best equipped self catering accommodations I have ever stayed in. Host was so communicative and the location was everything I had hoped it would be. Thank you!
Beautiful lodge, spotless when we arrived in a stunning location. Nice and quiet and such a relaxing stay. The hot tub was great! Nice surprise for my husbands 50th
Wonderful place up on a mountain with a beautiful view. There were seven of us and each had a bed. The living area/kitchen was wonderful. It was great having a washer and dryer, and full size refrigerator. There was even a French press, coffee pot!
The house was clean, beautiful, and in an incredible secluded location with mountain views. We arrived to a welcome basket which was greatly appreciated. Beds were comfortable, hot tub was fantastic, and Gillian was very responsive and accommodating. Would absolutely come back again!
Make sure you take time to read the hot tub directions as it makes all the difference in the world. Nice welcome package of snacks and so forth left by our host Gillian…
Great location for hill walking paddle boarding local walks . Views from hot tub fabulous! Property owner very responsive helpful thoughtful. Lodge good for 6 adults, but 8
adults might be bit tight . Next door property slightly bigger. Would definitely return.
This was a beautiful property with amazing views. It had all the amenities we needed and was very clean upon check-in. The only downside was the other lodge mentioned in the description is very close rental lodge. They share the same patio deck, driveway and parking area. We had to shut all the blinds to avoid having the other people looking in at us. Other than that it was great.
Had an amazing stay here.
Highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed!
Super clean, well equipped and very spacious.
Host was very attentive and responsive to queries.
The only thing I’d say (which isn’t even a negative) but didn’t impact negatively on our stay would be having it more secure to allow dogs to go out slide door within living room area to the back without worrying they’d wander off.
Will definitely return.
We had an amazing Christmas here and made wonderful memories.
Great location and beautiful views but not well stocked
We had a great stay and the location was very close to Oban which was convenient. However the kitchen was very lowly stocked. Generally with our previous experience with vrbo, there was at least some oil for cooking, which was not the case here. Also, the toilets work very poorly and required flushing 3+ times for even a minimal amount of toilet paper which was a bit stressful.
Due to the weather we unfortunately didn’t arrive until late Friday however the lodge was absolutely beautiful and cosy for weekend. It was spacious and clean which is ideal as we spent most our weekend there due to how horrible the weather was outside. We would definitely love to stay again.
The property was beautiful and so were the views. Despite the wet weather we have a lovely week break, the kids loved the hot tub and having their own rooms! The host was very helpful and having met in person was very friendly :)
Very comfortable house in an outstanding location. Soaking in the hot tub, , watching the bats, gazing at the stars and the full moon over Ben Cruachan was special! Great accommodation, wonderful walking, and the open plan works well for a large family group.
Minor suggestion for improvement:
1. Adding a gate on the deck to allow dogs to access the fenced garden safely and come and go into the house without supervision.
2. Kitchen implements could be better supplied - thee were no sharp knifes, no mixing bowl, no jugs, not enough casserole dishes, not enough cutlery and one pot handle was broken when we arrived.
A fantastic lodge very well situated for our main objective of climbing Ben Cruachan. The hot tub was very welcome the next day!! The lodge was lovely, really welcoming, clean and well presented, a very pleasant place to spend the weekend. Good Wi-Fi pleased the children.
