About this property

Guests can enjoy lodges featuring kitchens and verandas, ideal for a self-catering stay while taking advantage of direct loch access for fishing and boating activities. The peaceful environment is well-suited for families and pet owners, with a smoke-free policy and free parking available on site.

Some rooms include kitchens, allowing for flexible meal preparation. Check-in begins at 16:00, and check-out is at 10:00. The absence of amenities such as a pool, fitness center, or airport shuttle means that the lodges cater primarily to visitors seeking a tranquil retreat with outdoor focus rather than typical hotel conveniences.
