Had a lovely time. Travelled with a group of friends and the chestnut lodge was the perfect layout for socialising and cosy nights in. Very clean and great showers! There were a few other people staying in the other lodges and I was slightly worried about noise but honestly it was fine! Didn’t hear a thing.
Beds were slightly on the hard side.

The group really enjoyed the location and the walks from the property. One of the main aims was to get back into nature and this location made it very easy to do. It is also close to Killin although walking to the town along the road is not recommend it is easily commutable by car from the lodge. The Chestnut lodge had 2 fully equipped bathrooms and for my group this was an excellent thing to have. Even though some of the heating didn't work in some rooms the place does heat up really quickly with what is there. The bedrooms were excellent well sized and each room had a closet which was very useful for us to avoid clutter in the rooms. The group would love to come back even with some of the issues mentioned.
As I was the organiser of the group and preparing the food for the group I didn't find the lodge kitchen easy to use. There wasn't storage for the food and no space for equipment (slow cooker and bread machine) and the utensils were for me bare minimum and not intuitively placed. The cutting board was glass and we only found it after asking the owners. The extractor fan didn't work which means when preparing food everything steamed up. There were no instructions for the dishwasher, and the instruction on the machine had disappeared from use. We did figure it out in the end. The couching in the sitting room was difficult to get up from as it were sagging and smelled like wet dog. Generally the place needs some TLC - the bedrooms however were excellent. Heating in one of the bathrooms didn't work and the other was so hot it takes off skin. The interior (front) door is difficult to close and is very noisy as it suddenly pulls lose once you pull with force and rattles the structure of the whole lodge. If you are baking bread with a machine this is a problem and sets you back in your food prep by 3 hours. Again minor things but annoying when having to compensate for other things like the kitchen, space and the electricity (additional charge and resetting) and it suddenly going out.

Spacious, comfortable, clean. Nice location with a few things to do on site and some nice walks nearby. Well equipped, good value, convenient parking right outside, very peaceful location. We met the owner when we arrived- she was very friendly and welcoming.
Not the most modern decor ever, and remembering to top up the electricity meter was a minor inconvenience.

Lodge was very clean and tidy. Stayed in the large 4 bedroom one plenty of space to move around. Great location to explore. Co-op in village 2 min away, which was great. The Owners were lovely, nothing a problem. Very dog friendly 🐕
It was slightly dated, but due to be modernised. A hairdryer was meant to be in the cabin, but I couldn't find it ! The Tv was too high ( sore neck )

Good facilities, ideal for a group of hillwalkers
A few more larger pans are required
Road closure through killin caused some issues that we could have been warned about

The cottage is set in a beautiful location, and very near fantastic walks! There are lots of couches which makes it comfortable for everyone!
we had to put in a coin which was supplied, every 5 or so hours when the electricity ran out, which was a little annoying when it was dark.

Great location. Quiet, lovely views and walks. Facilities were excellent. Staff was friendly and helpful.
The beds were a bit too firm for my liking. I also wished that the living room windows all opened instead of just the one.

Lodge was spotless. Needing updated but that is already planned. Owners really lovely. Would happily go back.
WiFi was slow but as we were on holiday it was not a problem.

Breakfast n/a. This was self catering. Ideal woodland lodge for ourselves and family. Very child friendly but quiet and well equipped. Handy for what we wanted to do i.e. boating on Loch Tay.
We had to pay extra for electricity (only £5 per night) but if it was included in the price we wouldn't have noticed.
6.0 / 10.0
Good sized lodge for our party of 4 adults and 3 kids. Liked that there were 2 shower rooms. Outside bbq was great along with swing ball and a basketball hoop.
Sofas in need of replacement as have been well used (3x 2 seater) but 1 was like sitting on the floor. Paid £20 for electricity but electricity ran out during the night and we weren’t aware that you only had to turn the meter dial. Pre-ordered towel bundles which the person checking us in wasn’t aware of but she quickly resolved this. Kitchen lacking a few oven to table dishes and mixing bowls (we ate in every night and these would have made it more manageable.
