Comfortable Cabin Getaway
excellent location friendly staff clean pool
The location is excellent. It is close to Landmark and other attractions. The staff members were both friendly and accommodating. The pool and sauna were clean. The lodge had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. I also appreciated the convenient parking.
I found the second bedroom had only one bed plus a pull-out bed. We had to make up the pull-out bed ourselves, a slight inconvenience after a long day of travel.
Dining
9/10
The kitchen area was well equipped. It was also clean and well laid out. We found that the conservatory doubled as a dining area. It was more than adequate for our needs.

The pool and sauna provided relaxing opportunities. The site includes a lovely loch with ducks. These added to the charm. There were plentiful amenities. These were a welcome addition to our stay.

Loch view cabin stay

The cabin overlooked the loch. It was a very short walk to feed the ducks, which my toddler enjoyed. We enjoyed listening to the owls, ducks, and deer at night. The beds were comfortable, and the shower was good.

The location had beautiful surroundings, and the lochan was only a few minutes walk away, it was so lovely. Many ducks lived nearby, and children loved feeding them in the morning, right outside the cabin. The location was perfect!
