Quiet and peace in the forrest

The property is lovely. We had a really nice, quiet and peaceful stay in the lodge. We had everything we need and could fully enjoy our stay. Stephen and Liz gave us nice advices to enjoy the Cowal Peninsula. We will definitely come back!

Perfect getaway

Perfect getaway for two. We wanted a relaxing break and that's what we got. Lodge was small but perfectly adequate for our needs. There was a busy road behind us but it didn't bother us too much. We sat out ( weather permitting) and watched life on the river, a little family of ducks, a heron ( we think) and daily visits from a red squirrel. Will definitely be returning soon. Didn't get to meet Stephen and Liz as,we had everything we needed but hopefully meet you when we return. Linda and Michael

About the host

Hosted by Stephen & Liz

Host profile image
Your hosts, Stephen & Liz began providing holiday accommodation in Scotland in 1989, when they ran a small youth hostel for Backpackers. Then, after many years of working in Hospitality, they acquired their first log cabin in 2001. They now have four cabins and 'The Wee Ludging', all of which they have personally furnished and equipped to the high quality standard they are today. Stephen and Liz both appreciate how important it is for guests to feel welcome on their travels and to stay in warm, clean, comfortable accommodation, and have lots of information around to help in their enjoyment. If you need help, they live locally and have lots of tips on where is best to visit, where to dine etc. Over the years they have met many wonderful people and they enjoy taking many breaks themselves, when they can.

Why they chose this property

Stephen & Liz were bowled over by the beauty of the natural landscape of the area and settled with their family in 2000. In 2013 they designed, built, decorated and furnished Bramble Lodge from scratch. They wanted to provide guests with an enjoyable stay in an 'Amazing Space' (in an amazing place) close to the river and surrounded by Nature. Apart from its neighbour, Bramble Lodge, there is no other like it in Scotland. It's perfect for two, perfect for romance and easy to get to. There is a sense of seclusion, yet the nearest town, Dunoon, is only 10 mins drive and the nearest city, Glasgow, is only 90 mins away. Stephen & Liz made this area their home, and they are pleased to be able to share a little part of it with you.

What makes this property unique

Being 'local', Stephen and Liz are on hand if any help is required, and they are always happy to share information about the area, places to visit, things to see and do. Many have mentioned how good it is to receive personal recommendations.

Unlike other lodges in the area Hawthorn Lodge is fully double glazed for added comfort and security, and the Rental INCLUDES Electricity, Bed Linen, Towels, Complimentary Toiletries, Wi-fi and Parking - there's no hidden costs.
