Ash Lodge

Lodge was great however the shower wasn't working, no hot water. We raised the issue with the property manager and to his credit he responded very quickly can came to the property to see if he could fix the issue. He couldn't but after a few calls advised that someone would be arriving to fix the problem and we would be contacted. We never received any call or update so decided to cut our holiday short and leave. The bathroom sink also started to leak which restricted where we could wash. Its been nearly a week since we left and still no correspondence, poor customer service.

Great location and very comfortable

Really enjoyed our stay. Cosy and comfortable. Everything that you need for your holiday. A few very minor issues that have already been highlighted to the owner hence the score of 4 instead of 5. Would definitely stay again.

Ash Lodge- great location

A great location for exploring the wonderful Cowal Peninsula and the Arrochar Alps. Cosy, peaceful and warm cabin, and everything functioned well. No view, but surrounded by lovely trees and 10 steps up the path you are greeted by the fabulous aspect of the surrounding hills.

Fine lodge for relaxing

The lodge has everything you'd need, and is situated in a nice green environment. Like other reviews already suggested, it is part of a lodge 'park', and is quite close to the street. Because of that, it's not very quiet, but otherwise fine. When we arrived, the lodge wasn't cleaned, but that was rectified quickly after giving Chris a call. We can recommend the Whistlefield Inn, which has very friendly personnel. The Benmore Botanical Garden just around the corner is also really worth the visit.
