About this property
Whether you’re looking to explore historical trails or enjoy swimming in your own freshwater loch, this family-friendly retreat offers a truly unique break in the spectacular scenery of the Scottish Highlands. Nestled in the heart of Scotland's majestic landscapes, this serene spot beside Glen Creran in Appin is the perfect base for keen outdoor enthusiasts to explore and reconnect with nature. From your doorstep, you can enjoy wild swimming in Glen Creran while adventurers and nature lovers alike can join the Last Clansman Trail to climb up Glen Duror to the birthplace of James of the Glens. Dive into hundreds of years of history by jumping aboard a boat trip to sail the waters surrounding the picturesque Castle Stalker, 8 miles away, or hike the woodland of Coille Mheadonach to the postcard-perfect Fairy Bridge at Glen Creran, 1 mile away.
Your stunning Highland scenery never feels far in the endlessly cosy lounge, which features a sumptuous bay window that frames breath-taking views of Glen Creran. The characterful wood panelling perfectly blends into the colours of your unspoilt surrounding scenery, whilst the roaring wood burner sets a truly homely ambience that invites tired travellers to unwind at the end of a busy day. Lose yourself in even more panoramic views in the open-plan kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-from-home; a collection of sublime picture windows ensures you enjoy your tasty local flavours amongst views of some breath-taking sunsets melting over the hillsides. Another roaring wood burner and authentic period décor create a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. Sharing the same charm and character as the rest of the lodge, the four king-size bedrooms on offer are bursting with rustic touches that echo the rich heritage of your surroundings, three of which boast well-appointed en-suite facilities.
Make the most of your breath-taking surroundings by dining alfresco with a glass of something chilled on the patio; stay up way past bedtime to star gaze in the clear, dark skies. Outside, there is private parking for four cars.
