  • Great place to chill, wild swimming in Loch Shiel - bliss. Walk through the Forest around Loch Doilet, beautiful and peaceful. Sauna and Jacuzzi bath were a real treat, book reading with a view, wow - what more could you want! Thank you.

  • We've had a wonderful few days relaxing and exploring the local area. Thank you for creating a lovely, comfortable cabin! After seeing the food disappearing we finally caught sight of the Pine Martens, blink and you'll miss them! When we arrived the Robins and Chaffinches made it very clear they were expecting peanuts - we obliged! Ariundle was a great walk, a real rainforest. We saw a Kingfisher. We will be back!

  • We have spend a delightful few days in your very comfortable and homely lodge. A Pine Marten appeared on a couple of evenings and the Robins and Finches ate lots of peanuts! We hope to be back before too long and will certainly be recommending the Lodge to friends and family. Can recommend the Cullen Skink dish at the Strontian Hotel! We only scratched the surface of everything there is to do here.

  • We so needed a relaxing week away from everyday life and couldn't have found a better place! What a magical place! The combination of such a welcoming lodge set in the very best of scenery and wildlife. Thank you Mark and Amy for creating this wonderful hideaway. Plenty of fishing and trips out to Mull & Ulva (highly recommend the Boat House cafe) The Pine Marten graced us with a morning and afternoon visit. We hope to be back again.

  • What a lovely week we've had! (Despite the rain) as the lodge is so comfy and Mark & Amy have equipped it with everything you'd want (thanks for the fizz on arrival!) The Pine Marten has enjoyed the peanuts and is shy, though has been seen between 10.45 - 11.15pm. We've travelled miles and explored so many beautiful areas. We'd love to return, thank you so much Mark and Amy for your hospitality and for letting us stay in this wonderful place.
