The owner is on hand if needed but allows you to enjoy the remote and stillness of the stay. Brilliant situation for travel to Mull and surrounding islands. Lots of boat tours in the area (and just 10 minutes from Oban) The lodge has everything you need, it has rustic charm but is really clean. The hot tub was lovely and suet pellets for feeding the birds was appreciated.

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.
