Loch Awe Luxury Eco Cabins

4.9 (14 reviews)
Lochawe
Tel: 07729709665
Sitting high on the hillside above Loch Awe, our custom built cabins combine luxury accommodation with eco friendly living. Think small but amazing spaces. Powered by solar panels and heated by a cosy wood burning stove our cabins can operate off grid. Experience the views over the loch and baronial towers to the mountains beyond whilst relaxing on your own private deck. We have two cabins. Each cabin is compact, but has been cleverly designed to create a feeling of space. Parking is located below the cabins and it is a short walk up some steps to the front door. The wood burning stove will be ready for you to light, which will quickly make the cabin cosy whenever you need it. Logs and kindling are provided in a log store on the deck A small gas boiler provides hot water on demand. There is a two ring gas burner for cooking and a small fridge to keep food and drinks cool. There is a breakfast bar for indoor dining and a table and chairs for outdoor dining on the deck.

Beautiful location with so many great walks, lochs near by for you and your dog to enjoy! The cabin itself is stunning and was absolutely spotless and so cosy! Cabin was also very well equipped. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Tips:

Be organised with meals if planning to eat meals in the cabin as no microwave or oven (this was stated when booking so didn’t come as a surprise). The fridge is also pretty small so we brought a cool box to store cans of juice / alcohol to save space in fridge. There is a restaurant less than 1 min away and if eating out. Also a handy little convenience store less than 5 min walk away too. Lastly pack waterproofs & wellies / walking shoes

There may be a wasps nest developing in the exterior wall of the cabin. Only real suggestion would be to have tea bags in with the coffee. Otherwise we had a fantastic stay.

Tips:

Fantastic location with the train station nearby to take you to Oban or an array of places for a walk. Staff in the adjoining inn were fantastic as was the restaurant. Very comfortable lodgings with the only downside being the lack of sun in the evening but not much can be done about that. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a romantic getaway.

Really great location on Loch Awe but given full window blinds difficult to have any privacy to look at the view - would be good to have the option to have the bottom half of the window blinds shut and top lart open. Handy storage options. Some hand soap was expected however having read the airbnb reviews we brought our own thankfully. Also very very hot when sunny - perhaps a fan or bedsheet for the summer would be good!

Tips:

Ben Cruachan inn is just next door and good for a meal - pots and pans provided however only 2 gas hob therefore difficult to cook much of a meal. Cleaning facilities and shampoo provided but make sure you bring some hand soap with you! The view is stunning however the lodge is very insulated and incredibly hot during the rare sunny days - make sure you leave the blinds down during the day and bring a thin bedsheet!

The chalet itself was a gem. Clean, cosy and very well laid out considering its size. Plenty of USB sockets to suit all needs. The boiler coped very well supplying the shower and the sinks. The only things we missed were perhaps a microwave oven and a toaster but possibly power constraints and even space make providing these impossible. The bed was superbly comfortable. Didn't try the woodburner stove. Would have been too warm so good is the insulation. Any of the staff we met were friendly and most helpful for advice. All in all a superb place to stay.

Tips:

The Ben Cruachan Inn is a great improvement over those who remember the old Tight Lines pub for food and beer. The village shop is well stocked and friendly. St Conan's Kirk is a must as is Kilchurn Castle perhaps Scotland's most photographed castle even outdoing Eilean Donan.

Thank you for a lovely stay. Although the cabin is compact, it is really comfortable and the large windows give a real sense of space, not to mention incredible views. The food and service at the adjacent Ben Cruachan Inn was fantastic. I'm sure we'll be back!

Great cabin - well designed and thought out use of space. Super comfy bed and great views. Lovely shower. Compact kitchen but we expected that. Super minor thing - could’ve benefitted from a sponge/scourer to assist with kitchen surfaces cleaning and maybe an extra tea towel although luckily was warm enough to dry the one we had. Couldn’t ignite stove with built in lighter so had to use matches which felt a little precarious - a fire lighter igniter clicker pen (I don’t know what they’re called!) would have been appreciated.

Tips:

The Inn is brilliant - fantastic food and whiskies. Hike up the the reservoir was quite spectacular. A day trip to Mull and Calgary bay in spectacular weather. Even spotted dolphins! Inverary and the rest and be thankful with a brilliant haggis sandwich at the catering van was amazing on our journey back.

Had a lovely two night stay in the cabins. The cabin is beautiful! We were lucky enough to have a little heatwave so we didn't need the fire on, it was very warm, modern and well made. Shower is amazing, it has a smart tv so netflix etc are built in. Beautiful views from the bed and the decking. I didn't expect to be so close to the road but it was so handy being so close to the Inn, amazing food, drinks and staff. Really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend.

The cabin was an absolute dream! Modern, scandi interior with stunning views over Loch Awe. Everywhere was spotless, the bed was really comfortable and the log burner is guaranteed to keep you cosy. We’ve already recommended the cabins to several friends and will definitely be looking to return in the future! Thank you :-)

Tips:

If you’re staying over the weekend and would like dinner in the adjacent inn, make sure you book!
