Guests say
Bidean Lodge is praised for its excellent location, comfortable furnishings, and private setting, ideal for exploring Glencoe and enjoying outdoor activities. Guests appreciate the lodge's potential, though some suggest it could benefit from refurbishment and improved cleanliness.
Mixed feedback on cleanliness, with some guests finding it less than satisfactory, mentioning mould and a general need for a deeper clean, while others felt it was tidy.
The location is highly regarded for its proximity to walks, scenic views, and local attractions, making it a great base for outdoor enthusiasts.
Most guests found the lodge comfortable, highlighting the cosy sofas, beds, and homely feel, contributing to a pleasant stay.
Facilities are generally good with useful kitchen utensils and entertainment options, but some maintenance issues like non-working lights and absence of WiFi are noted.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the owners, so this category cannot be scored.

We have mixed feelings about Bidean Lodge. On the positive side: it’s in a great location with walks on the doorstep, lovely big garden which our dog loved, the sofas and beds were comfortable and - if it were refurbished - it has great potential. However, several negatives: too many to list here but it wasn’t super clean, there’s mould and mildew in the bathrooms and everything feels a bit tatty. We’ve stayed in many properties for a similar price and feel this one is a little neglected and in need of some TLC. I’ve sent a list of suggestions to the owner in the hope it might inspire some improvements. Definitely didn’t feel like a 4 star property as advertised, more like 3.
