  • "Relaxing stay with stunning scenery."

    Really handy for visiting Arran, Bute, Dunoon, Kilcreggan, Glasgow etc. Owners had thought of everything that makes a stay easy and they were really friendly. Lodge was comfortable. Waking up and seeing that gorgeous view out over the water to Bute and Toward Lighthouse was fabulous. We even saw two deer on the site. Overall, it was just lovely.

  • "The friendly owners contacted us before our stay to explain what we could expect from the lodge facilities and to give us travel guidance."

    Once at the lodge, the owner was there to great us and, happily, showed us around, answering any questions we had. The lodge itself has a commanding view of the Clyde, Bute and Arran beyond. It was very spacious, clean and comfortable, with everything we needed to make our stay a memorable one. Thank you.

    Thank you for your excellent review, it was our pleasure to meet you and we look forward to seeing you again in the future. Elayne & John. Property Owner
