Situated in the Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park, this luxury wooden lodge was built in 2008, designed and furnished to a high specification. Ideal for family holidays, the lodge has 3 bedrooms (one with ensuite shower room), open plan living area, family bathroom, extensive deck and garden area.
The lodge is one of seven in a small, family run holiday park, but is privately owned and managed. It combines privacy with the convenience of on site facilities such as a farm shop, children’s play area and nature trail.
The lodge is extremely well equipped, and inside you can find:
Kitchen: gas hob & oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, blender.
Dining: solid oak table, 6 oak dining chairs.
Lounge: 32-inch Sony Bravia TV, Sky freeview, DVD player & extensive DVD library, iPod dock, PS2 & games, books and maps, 2 3-seater sofas.

In oak woodlands, on a west facing slope, with a burn to one side & pond at rear, the site attracts local wildlife in abundance, including a lively family of red squirrels. Bird food is provided for the feeders around the lodge, and you can expect to see chaffinches, tits, siskins, tree creepers and wagtails.

Local services include an on site shop, restaurant (open part year) within 5 minutes walk, hotel-pub within 15 minutes walk, and the famous Rob Roy's Grave is 4 miles away.
