Loved staying at Balnabrechan lodge. The facilities were great beautiful big comfy bed tea and coffee facilities in the room big bathroom with bath or shower. The host Jules is very attentive at breakfast time and very informative about the area and further afield, she recommended quite a few places for us to see which was great for us as we weren’t to familiar with the area. Great place to stay would definitely recommend it.

Great stay in an unforgettable property

We had a great stay in an unforgettable property. Our host, Jules, made us feel very welcome and it was great to share her home for two nights. Her suggestions for eating out were spot on. We thoroughly recommend both her property and the wider area which is well worth a visit. And a special mention too for her dog, Pru.
