    It was very comfortable, warm and clean, with lovely views. I loved the wood interiors and the fireplace. The shower was a little weak and ran a bit hot and cold, but I think that can be expected from a cabin out in the country. I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend it completly.

    The location of the lodge was superb though we were surprised there were so many lodges close by. That did not spoil our stay. The simple accommodation was very comfortable and warm despite the dreadful weather which occurred nationwide. A very successful exercise in recharging!

    Excellent accommodation, the photos don’t do it justice. It’s very comfortable and spacious. The bed was very comfortable and good quality linen. With a beautiful view of the loch from the main bedroom. Kitchen is well equipped. The area is so peaceful and location is amazing! I would book again and again!!

    We loved our stay here. The house is extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and in a dream location. Look forward to returning one day.

    The views from Scallopshell, particularly from the lounge and master bedroom, across Loch Fyne are fantastic. There was a smell of damp and mustiness on entry that never cleared even though we opened windows as often as the weather allowed. We never managed to get any hot water, although the electric shower was good. There were no instructions for the complicated oven or heating. It's within a 20 minute walk of The Oystercatcher pub, which does excellent meals. Good WiFi, although we couldn't get the apparently smart tv to connect. It's spacious and well furnished, with particularly comfortable beds.
