  Kendoon Cabin was lovely, it was so remote and there is no light pollution, you could see the stars. The hot tub takes a bit of work, it wasn't filled for us which has we known that we would have got there earlier to do this as it takes a while. A couple of housekeeping things, there was dog mess round the side of the cabin near to the tap for the hot tub. Luckily we didn't step in it but not very pleasant, the chairs and blankets were also covered in dog hair which was a bit annoying. I understand you allow pets but I would expect there to be no trace of them for the next guests. We were also left a sponge and dish cloth, the sponge was well used. Given how much money we spent to stay there I would expect a new sponge and most of the dishes/cutlery were dirty, again it is the responsibility of the user to do the dishes but I would have expected housekeeping to double check the details. These small things just knocked the shine off the place a little. We still had a wonderful time but was left a little disappointed by the standard of housekeeping not being met.

  Cosy, well equipped Lodge.

  We recently spent four nights here, it's a lovely little lodge for a break away. There is a welcome pack of bread, milk, butter and orange juice which was lovely. Take your own tea, coffee and sugar, we hadn't realised so soon had to go back out. We found it quite difficult to find in the dark. The what3words took us somewhere down the road, the what3wordsfor the start of driveway is ///luxury.weekend.static A doormat would be ideal, when the dogs are in and out the floors are soon getting wet and grubby. Also a spray or flash mop or something would have been great to be able to quickly go over the floors, as again, with the dogs in and out we had to keep using wipes which was a pain. We didn't actually meet the owners which we thought a little odd but I guess some may appreciate it? Overall we had a really nice break, the kids loved it and loved seeing the sheep and horses just outside and we found plenty to do in the area

  Best Holiday ever!

  !! We stayed in one of the lodges for 2 weeks and we couldn't believe the kindness and hospitality of the owners. They made a lovely and memorable holiday for us with all the care and love they put into making guests happy. The lodge was really comfortable, a great sofa and an orthopaedic mattress. It was also very clean. It's a very peacefully and quiet area, perfect for an "away from the city-stress holiday". There are plenty of places to visit and also Glasgow and Edinburgh are just one hour train away. We enjoyed every minute there and had a very relaxing time on the lodge and walking around the fields, towns and forest. The sights are stunning from the lodge. There is a very comfortable garden with BBQ facing the fields, perfect to enjoy the sunset while having a nice dinner. It's worth every penny! We are definitely coming back. Thank you so much for such a lovely experience!

  Lovely cabin in stunning surroundings. The cabin was spotlessly clean and had almost everything you could possibly need for a break. We loved the wood fired hot tub, especially after a swim in the loch, and had pretty much got the hang of firing it up by the end of our stay. There were a couple of small issues, we had booked to stay for a week and the weather was terrible for the first few days, there was no way to get anything dried. We could really have used a drying screen to hang wet clothes and towels on. Ideally a small washer dryer would be fantastic, there is space under the kitchen counter. When the weather turned nicer towards the end of the week a small drying rotary line outside would be great. This did not spoil our holiday by any means but would certainly have made it nicer. I would definitely go back again.

  The accommodation was amazing. The location is absolutely stunning! Would highly recommend and would come back again. Just a few things that we were not happy with, the hot tub didn’t have a thermometer as stated in the booklet so we struggled to get it to the right temperature. The booklet also said that there was WiFi which there wasn’t. And we messaged the first two names on the booklet for assistance, one responded but poorly, and the other one didn’t respond at all. There was also a lot of bugs so would recommend them getting a fly trap. We were bitten a lot even with bug spray. There also seems to be a discharge pipe under the cabin which seem to attract the bugs. There were actually less bugs the closer to the loch you got. Overall a fab holiday with great views and wildlife :)
