About this property

Hot tub lodge with stunning view

This stunning property is situated amongst the woods on the hillsides above Loch Etive, with stunning views to Ben Cruachan. It is close to the village of Taynuilt, a 20-minute walk away offering the convenience of shops, hotel, café and a golf course. Perfect for either a relaxing family holiday or as a base for nature-lovers, this property is quiet and rural, yet conveniently close to the A85 for easy access to Argyll attractions.

Located on the edge of a native woodland, it is a lovingly furnished highland lodge, offering plenty of space with woodland and mountain views from every window. The lodge is surrounded by private decking with a private hot tub, the perfect place to relax in the crisp mountain air and enjoy the stunning views. It can accommodate a larger family or group across four bedrooms, all with beautiful views and served by three luxury bathrooms.

There are two lodges in total sitting on 50 acres of natural land with a private loch. They are situated next to each other, yet have plenty of privacy and their own private hot tub each.

Statement from the interior designer:
Using the beauty and simplicity of the natural surroundings the interior design of the Lodge is designed with comfort and effortless style in mind. From tree bark, timber, natural weaves and woven textures to marquetry inlaid wood design to the everchanging colours of the landscape as contrasting pop of colour. These interiors allow the outside-in! The perfect spaces to get away from it all!

Taynuilt is a busy little village with great transport connections and has a popular village pub serving food, a 9-hole golf course and a sports ground. It also has a general store, post office, butchers, hairdressers, café, and a railway station. There are two pebble beaches on nearby Loch Etive, and within the village is historic Bonawe Iron Furnace and Cruachan. The Hollow Mountain visitor centre is 5 miles away and is sure to make for a fun day out. Here you are close to the beautiful inland Loch Awe, which offers fishing, boating and fantastic forestry walks through nearby Glen Nant and Dalavich.
Oban, the Gateway to the Isles and home to the iconic McCaig’s Tower, Dunollie Castle and Oban Distillery, is a 12-mile drive away and has an interesting selection of shops, bars and restaurants. From here you can also catch a short ferry trip to one of the Inner Hebrides, including Mull, Staffa and Iona. Within an hour’s drive are ruined castles, beautiful gardens, and sites of historical interest including Dunstaffnage Castle and Castle Stalker to the North or Inveraray to the South where you can visit Inveraray Castle and Jail and Auchindrain Museum. Glencoe and Fort William are easily accessible offering walking, mountain biking, climbing and skiing. Beach 2 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.

Had an amazing stay here. Highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed! Super clean, well equipped and very spacious. Host was very attentive and responsive to queries. The only thing I’d say (which isn’t even a negative) but didn’t impact negatively on our stay would be having it more secure to allow dogs to go out slide door within living room area to the back without worrying they’d wander off. Will definitely return. We had an amazing Christmas here and made wonderful memories.

Peaceful weekend

Due to the weather we unfortunately didn’t arrive until late Friday however the lodge was absolutely beautiful and cosy for weekend. It was spacious and clean which is ideal as we spent most our weekend there due to how horrible the weather was outside. We would definitely love to stay again.

The property was beautiful and so were the views. Despite the wet weather we have a lovely week break, the kids loved the hot tub and having their own rooms! The host was very helpful and having met in person was very friendly :)

Outstanding location

Very comfortable house in an outstanding location. Soaking in the hot tub, , watching the bats, gazing at the stars and the full moon over Ben Cruachan was special! Great accommodation, wonderful walking, and the open plan works well for a large family group. Minor suggestion for improvement: 1. Adding a gate on the deck to allow dogs to access the fenced garden safely and come and go into the house without supervision. 2. Kitchen implements could be better supplied - thee were no sharp knifes, no mixing bowl, no jugs, not enough casserole dishes, not enough cutlery and one pot handle was broken when we arrived.

Great place to stay.

A fantastic lodge very well situated for our main objective of climbing Ben Cruachan. The hot tub was very welcome the next day!! The lodge was lovely, really welcoming, clean and well presented, a very pleasant place to spend the weekend. Good Wi-Fi pleased the children.

Best Lodge I’ve ever been to!

The lodge exceeded our expectations and was fully equipped with everything you could need. The location was fantastic, just a short drive from Airds bay where we went paddle boarding and nearby to some friendly local shops. Gillian and her team catered for our every need and were at hand to help whenever we needed them, couldn’t thank them enough for the hospitality they showed us. The hot tub is a great touch, and there is plenty of garden space surrounding the lodge. Extremely comfortable beds and a luxurious feel within, spotlessly clean and just amazing. We can’t wait to visit again!

Excellent property

Property is excellent in a quiet location. We had a great time relaxing with friends in lovely weather. Communication with the owner throughout booking and during our stay was excellent. We had an unfortunate incident with the water going off on our first night but the owner had her maintenance team out and the issue fixed within 20 mins. The owner also took it upon herself to replace the gas canister for the fire pit table when it ran out during our stay. The hot tub is in excellent condition and maintained daily and the property has a well kept secure garden area. My only area of improvement to this would be to have one of the entrances to the property opening into this secure area which make it even more secure for children and pets. All in all though a lovely break and would most definitely consider booking again!

The perfect girls weekend

I stayed at this property with seven friends for a joint 30th birthday celebration. We stayed Friday - Monday and it was just perfect! Gillian was so lovely and helpful and she answered any questions we had straight away. The lodge was just stunning, the views from the hot tub were amazing. Lots of lovely walks in the area including climbing Bun Cruachan. We would happily return to this lodge for another girls weekend or special occasion.

Birthday celebration

BlueFire Lodge is a very comfortable and spacious property equipped with everything you require. A tranquil setting for us to enjoy a lovely weekend with family to celebrate a special birthday.
