"Beautiful lodge."
Very clean. It has everything you need. The little heater warms the cabin quickly. There is plenty storage in the bedroom. It really felt like being at home and having a place for our things. Even in the bathroom, there is lovely shelves. The hot tub was bonus. Very private area. Oban is a short drive away. We had a great week here in October.

"The lodge was just perfect for a week of relaxation."
The kitchen is well equipped and the bed and sofa are very comfy, sitting in the hot tub on an evening was perfect. Gordon was really helpful, we had an issue with the shower but it was sorted quickly.
We visited the small islands that are an hour from the lodge, all beautiful. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we've booked again so next year.

"We loved the location and how private it was."
It is right on the river, and next to some hiking trails, and it is pretty close to Oban and other surrounding attractions. We loved the wood burner and made plenty of use out of the kitchen as we cooked every night of our stay. The shower is not the best, as the heating controls are fiddly and could use some improvements to make it that much more special. I also think it would be good if there was a sign that explained the slightly brown water as that was a worry until I googled it. We only used the hot tub once on our stay, as it was slightly dirty and quite chlorinated. We loved the atmosphere of the lodge, including the lighting outside, but there should be a lamp in the lounge to give a more homely feel. Would recommend!

Lodge was very clean and well equipped, even supplied with unlimited logs for log burner. The ground keeper Gordon I think, was very helpful and informative. We enjoyed our stay so much we booked for next Christmas.
This lodge is a credit to owners who obviously have an interest in making sure their guests enjoy their time there. The bottle of bubbly and chocolates were also a nice touch.

Had a problem with the T.V but it was sorted straight away by Gordon, who is extremely friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Hot tub was lovely. Just be careful to turn towards the house and not the log cabin - on arrival. All in all a thumbs up from us.

"Our holiday did not get off to the expected start, after driving105 miles."
The ""Directions" that I printed from your website stated "After turning into the property bear left as the road divides and this road divides and this road leads around the back of Glen Euchar House to the property" - IT DOES NOT LEAD TO THE RIVER LODGE. Instead we came to a steep/ narrow/ /track, that we expected to lead to the property, it was a dead end, and required a multiple point turn - with my car making contact with tree branches - my car (and its paintwork), is inly 7 mouths old. Did anyone proof read these instructions?
This is our first rental in Scotland/ England/ France/ Portugal/ Ireland/ Germany/ Canada/ USA - where a local information folder (Doctor/ Dentist/ Places to visit/ Restaurants/ Food shopping etc) was was not provided. Due to circumstances beyond the owners control (it was/ is, a BT problem), we had no Broadband/ WiFi during our stay. The TV channels on offer on both TVs were very limited, as an access card was required for the majority of channels - which was not supplied. A DVD player (with no remote control - select TV output) was suppled towards the end of our stay to compensate for lack of Internet etc - it appeared to play our DVDs, but it could not communicate with any of the TVs HDMI inputs, it was stuck in "ARC" output mode. This was not our usual (most enjoyable) experience of of Sykes Cottages.

"The Lodge is a great place to stay."
It is in a wonderful location if you want to relax and enjoy the splendid stunning Scottish countryside. The walk through the Glen to Loch Scammadale is a wonderful walk from the Lodge. The Lodge is very well equipped, comfy bed and lovely hot tub. The only downside for us was the shower, we couldn’t get it to run any hotter than Luke warm. We would have also liked some lamps in the sitting area. We brought some plastic glasses to use in the hot tub, as we didn’t want to use glass for safety.

"Sykes - Please ensure you give the right directions to the property."
It would be hard to find under normal circumstances but was almost impossible when we were given the directions to the Log Cabin instead of the River Lodge.
Spa pool, outlook from the lounge and bedroom windows and tree setting were just divine. Decor beautifully fresh and contemporary and property was amazingly clean. The site manager Gordon was wonderfully friendly and incredibly helpful. He sorted a problem with hob so quickly we were amazed how he managed it. Can't recommend this property enough - probably the best Sykes we have ever stayed in.

Not really any other properties nearby apart from the other two that are onsite. We were called prior to our arrival to make sure we knew exactly where we were going and how to get there. Just a short drive from Oban which is perfect if you have forgotten anything. The lodge was immaculate upon arrival and already extremely cosy. The outdoor decking is perfect for a morning coffee and to just listen to your surrounding. This environment was made even better by the hot tub situated right outside the property. Would definitely recommend a stay here and I will definitely be back.
