    They didn’t provide towels which should be a basic service for all hosts. This was most inconvenient because we were travelling light and did not bring any towels. My family and I were on a road trip across Scotland and had already stayed in several places on our journey, (all had provided towels). What annoyed me the most was the excuse, (covid!). Apparently covid spreads more easy with body towels but tea towels and bed linen are fine. When I questioned this I was offered the opportunity of ‘hiring towels’ for £4.50 each which was even more confusing as I thought they did not provide towels at all?? All seemed like a wonderful ploy to make more money off exhausted travellers who just want to get clean at the end of a long day. On principle I did not agree and went a brought towels which add unnecessary time and stress to our journey. Such a shame as this tainted our stay in this beautiful place and we will not be returning as a result.

    Location was stunning

    The owner Graham , certainly wasn’t welcoming and upset our first day of our holiday. Thankfully we didn’t see him again. There is a part of the worktop that folds out but certainly isn’t secure enough to use as a table and not are there any stools or chairs to sit there We did travel with a family of 5 and found it small for this number but I better weather we could have utilised outside to ease this

    Love Dalavich every time we visit it’s fab and the community centre and the village shop as so welcoming and helpful. We stayed in seil cabin with the added extra of the hot tub The cabin is basic but had everything we needed The red squirrel came to visit

    The road to Dalavich. We know this is one of the reasons it is nice and quiet :-) The forest and the Loch is nice, but we only “discovered” the nearby area, as we only took the road in and out one time. We had a good time, but nevet got to the dam and castle on the north of the Loch due to the road.

    Nice place to relax and be by youself

    The property is not for 6 adults unless you like to be squashed. Shown pic of 2 adults on the sofa with little room left. When we arrived after our rollercoaster journey on a 16 mile single track road there were workman outside which was the noise we had for an hr or so. There was no meet and greet or directions as to where our cabin were. Luckily we met someone on site who took us to our cabin.

    Extremely disappointed. Advertised great loch views my sole purpose of booking it. Our view was overgrown shrubbery and no hint of a loch view. Advertised Sky TV however you could not get any signal for normal TV.

    Was hoping to get something to eat and a few drinks out and about in the surrounding area. All local places seem to be shut on Monday and Tuesday so had to travel into Oban

    Cabin was excellent we were in the Burnside which had great views over a small burn.Pine Martin and red squirrel along with lots of small birds all watched off the balcony. Hot tub and fire area where excellent warning ⚠️ heat plenty in advance takes a little while to get a nice temperature

    only problem was cleaning for us. I am sure they didn’t hoover the house. In the bathroom there was so many hairs on the floor. Also on the bed I found lots of hairs and let them know. They brought new bedding set but still it wasn’t so nice to find someone else’s hair.

    we have stayed in Pine Marten. It was so comfortable and we found what we need for stay. We really enjoyed our stay.

    The decking and outside area was in dire need of replacement and the decking hadn't been cleaned for sometime. The cabin is compact & the bunkbed room is really too small for anyone other than small children. We stayed with our 14 year old and she found the room claustraphobic. Nicely furnishished but in no way is it luxurious. We missed the fact when booking that bath towels weren't included and dissappointed that my call about this wasn't returned. The bathroom is basic and had a student flat vibe to it. Having to pay extra for using the hot tub seems unfair. Not good value for money at all!

    We stayed in Kilchurn No 19. The cabin had a terrific loch side view and the position gave us privacy for the hot tub. Kitchen was well equipped.

    on photos it shows log burning stove and water as the view however, you have to read it all to know that that’s not actually included with this cabin. still very nice but was misleading for my mum.

    nice location, small but comfortable. be a bit tight with 5 adults but very nice social club close by and lovely peaceful setting. midgies were crazy as to be expected but a few sprays dealt with this

    There wasn’t a gate on the verandah/patio area so we had to put things across the stairs so our dogs could roam in and out without wandering into the forest.

    The cabin was in a perfect location, in the quiet forest park, less that 2 minute walk to the Loch shore. The hot tub was completely private but with no view restrictions. Cabin felt cozy but had ample space. Wood burning fire kept the whole place toasty. It was the perfect spot for paddleboarding and walking the dogs.
