The cabin is cosy and comfortable with all that you need. The location is beautiful and peaceful. The extras left are a wonderful touch.
Beautiful rural setting, lovely views of the hills (and cows and sheep), close to Oban and the best of the west Highland region.

We stayed 2 nights in the cabin as a family (2 adults and 2 kids). The cabin is small for a family but it really has everything that you need. And there was enough space for us to sleep 4 people. We really enjoyed the welcome package and in general that it was very clean and cosy in the cabin. It will stay as a great memory for us!It is also great being in the midst of the nature and I would definitely go for the cabin compared to a hotel.
