The cabin is so cozy and in a beautiful location with the trees and lake beside it. We loved using the log fire and the hot tub. The cabin had everything we needed, and I loved all the books, DVDs and board games on offer. We found the bed very comfortable as well. The cabin is in a great location, remote but not too far from places like Oban if you want to eat out or go shopping. Our stay was so relaxing and I only wished we could stay longer.

The groundskeeper should give courtesy warning when he is coming to check the hot tub just in case people are skinny dipping or getting changed !
